3DX PLM Developer

Role: 3DX PLM developer Location: Dearborn, Mi (Onsite, office 4 days a week) Term: Contract About the Project: • Product development Bill of Material (BOM), Features and Change Management application, vital for automotive product development. • This system helps over 9000+ Automotive Engineers manage vehicle program features, parts, and usages, providing essential data for manufacturing and assembly. • Currently, this core application uses Java-J2EE, JavaFX, WebSphere, Web Services, XML, SQL Server, and PostgreSQL. • We are undertaking a strategic migration to re-platform it onto the Dassault Systèmes 3DEXPERIENCE (3DX) platform, primarily using ENOVIA for PLM and BOM management, with strong integration to CATIA for design data. • This transformation is key to building advanced digital twins and streamlining our automotive product development. • As a 3DX Developer, you will be crucial in this transformation, designing, coding, and implementing robust software solutions within the 3DX ecosystem. • You will directly impact how our next-generation vehicles are designed and manufactured. • Our team also develops APIs for integrations, ensures system security, and explores AI/ML projects (including Large Language Models - LLMs) for BOM utilization and other efficiencies. • We operate in an Agile environment, using tools like GCP Cloud Build, Tekton, Jira, and GitHub. Position Description: • Develop and customize 3DX solutions focusing on ENOVIA for automotive PLM, BOM, configuration, and change management. • Lead code-based migration of existing Java BOM functionalities to 3DX, including data transformation and API development. • Write and maintain complex customizations, scripts, and integrations using EKL, MQL, Java (for 3DSpace/ENOVIA), JavaScript (for client-side), and Web Services/APIs. • Collaborate with Automotive Design, Engineering, Manufacturing and Supply Chain teams to translate requirements into effective 3DX software solutions. • Develop Unit and Integration test cases for 3DX code, customizations, and integrations. • Troubleshoot, debug, and provide code fixes for deployment and production issues. • Participate actively in Agile ceremonies (e.g., Backlog Refinement, Stand-ups). • Provide rotational support for the 3DX application. • (Optional) Develop integrations to connect 3DX data with AI/ML tools (Python, Qliksense, Alteryx, LLMs) for advanced analytics and automation. Primary Skills Required: • 3DX Development Expertise: Strong hands-on experience developing, customizing, and extending ENOVIA (V6/3DEXPERIENCE) for automotive BOM, variant, configuration, and change management. • 3DX Programming: Expert in EKL, MQL, and Java for 3DSpace/ENOVIA server-side development. • Web & API Development: Strong JavaScript (e.g., 3DX widgets), Web Services (REST/SOAP), and API integration skills with 3DX. • Automotive CAD Integration: Experience developing integrations for CATIA V5/V6 data within 3DEXPERIENCE. • Database Development: Strong SQL, including schema understanding and complex queries for PLM data. • Version Control: Proficient with GitHub or similar. • Agile Development: Solid experience with Scrum/Kanban. • Automotive PLM Principles: Deep understanding of PLM concepts and data structures in the automotive industry, and how they translate to software design. Skills Preferred: • Experience with large-scale PLM system migration development. • Knowledge of 3DEXPERIENCE cloud deployments (GCP) and cloud development. • Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines for 3DX code deployments (Tekton). • Python development skills for scripting, data processing, or AI/ML integration. • Exposure to AI, Machine Learning (ML), and Large Language Models (LLMs), especially their application in engineering or PLM. • Monitoring tools: Splunk, Dynatrace. Knowledge of enterprise integration patterns with SAP in automotive manufacturing. • Experience developing integrations/customizations for DELMIA (manufacturing) or SIMULIA (simulation) in automotive. • Experience Required: 4+ years hands-on 3DEXPERIENCE (3DX) platform development, customization, and integration (specifically ENOVIA) within the automotive or a closely related manufacturing industry. • Proven experience coding and implementing solutions for PLM system migration or major enhancements. 4+ years in Agile Development environments. • Engineer 3 Exp: Prac. In 2 coding lang. or adv. Prac. in 1 lang. 6+ years in IT; 4+ years in development Education: Degree Type: 4-year degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, Software Engineering, or a related technical field. (Mechanical/Automotive Engineering degrees are also relevant if combined with strong programming skills). Certifications: Dassault Systems 3DEXPERIENCE, certifications (e.g., ENOVIA, 3DSpace Developer) are a strong plus.
