Teamcenter Data Architect

Role Description

The Teamcenter Data Architect plays a key role in designing and configuring a compliant Teamcenter Business Modeler IDE (BMIDE) data model. This role is primarily hands-on, responsible for building, extending, and maintaining the PLM data model while ensuring alignment with enterprise design standards and Navy mission requirements. The position contributes directly to establishing a unified, cost-effective, and mission-ready PLM environment that reduces delivery timelines, improves data consistency, and enables a single source of truth across the Naval Enterprise. The role balances practical implementation with targeted design responsibilities to ensure the data model is scalable, maintainable, and aligned with long-term Navy Enterprise Product Lifecycle Management (NPLM) objectives. The ideal candidate has 3-5 years of experience working in a similar capacity on any large enterprise system implementation/integration project specific to engineering or manufacturing.

Duties & Responsibilities

• Design, configure, and maintain Teamcenter data models using BMIDE, including object types, attributes, relationships, and business rules.
• Develop, deploy, and support BMIDE templates and extensions across development and production environments.
• Translate Navy engineering, logistics, and lifecycle management requirements into scalable, maintainable PLM data structures.
• Apply and enforce data modeling standards, naming conventions, and BMIDE best practices to ensure consistency, reusability, and compliance across the NPLM solution.
• Develop and maintain comprehensive data documentation, including data dictionaries, schema diagrams, and metadata definitions, to support transparency, governance, and knowledge transfer.
• Support the evolution of the Teamcenter data model architecture, ensuring alignment with enterprise objectives and interoperability requirements.
• Conduct impact analysis and implement controlled updates to the data model to support system integrations and evolving mission needs.
• Collaborate with solution architects, developers, and functional stakeholders to align data model design with system capabilities and business requirements.
• Partner with data governance and architecture teams to promote a single source of truth, reduce data duplication, and align with enterprise data standards.
• Support testing, validation, and troubleshooting of BMIDE configurations, including resolving schema conflicts, deployment issues, and data inconsistencies.
• Performs other duties as assigned.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Software Engineering, or related technical discipline.
• Minimum 3 years of experience supporting enterprise system implementations (e.g., PLM, ERP, MRP, DevSecOps, or CRM).
• Experience with data modeling, data migration, data mapping, and legacy system consolidation.
• Familiarity with configuration management, version control, and deployment processes.
• Ability to interpret technical and functional requirements and translate them into scalable data model solutions.
• Experience creating and maintaining structured data documentation, such as data dictionaries, schema definitions, and related artifacts.
• Proficiency with Microsoft Office Suite and documentation/collaboration tools (e.g., Confluence, SharePoint).
• Strong analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills, with the ability to convey complex concepts to diverse stakeholders.
• Currently holds an active U.S. national security clearance or be able to receive and maintain one.

Preferred Qualifications

• Hands-on experience with Teamcenter BMIDE development and configuration, including creation and management of business objects, attributes, relationships, LOVs, compound properties, and relation types.
• Ability to configure and extend Teamcenter behavior using BMIDE features such as conditions, rules, runtime properties, and other extensions.
• Strong understanding of PLM data modeling concepts and object-oriented data structures, with the ability to design scalable and maintainable models.
• Experience working within enterprise system environments, including system integrations and data exchange mechanisms (e.g., SOA services, XML, JSON).
• Familiarity with Teamcenter ITK and/or server-side customization concepts to effectively collaborate with developers and understand downstream impacts of data model changes.
• Experience supporting or configuring Active Workspace and understanding how BMIDE configurations are represented in the user interface.
• Proficiency in troubleshooting and resolving data model issues, including schema conflicts, deployment errors, and environment inconsistencies.
• Understanding of underlying database concepts (e.g., tables, indexing, normalization) and their impact on Teamcenter data persistence and performance optimization.
• Experience defining and applying data standards, naming conventions, and metadata management practices within large-scale systems.
• Familiarity with data governance concepts, including metadata management, data quality, and alignment with enterprise data architecture.
• CompTIA Security+ Certification.

Physical Requirements

• Prolonged periods sitting at a desk and working on a computer.
• Must be able to lift up to 15 pounds at times.
• This position may require the ability to travel up to 5%.
