CAD / Data Model & BOM Separation SME

Remote (US)

Role Overview

We are seeking a highly skilled Solid Edge CAD Expert (Rework, Configuration & Demonstration Specialist) with strong expertise in CAD rework, design methodology improvement, and configurable product modeling.The role focuses on analyzing existing CAD data, identifying inefficiencies, and implementing optimized, scalable

Key Responsibilities:

• Analyze existing CAD models to identify inefficiencies, incorrect practices, and structural issues.
• Define and execute CAD rework strategies aligned with Solid Edge best practices.
• Perform hands-on CAD restructuring and present improvements through "show & tell" demonstrations.
• Build scalable models using:
  • Variables Table & equation-driven modeling
  • Inter-part relationships
  • Synchronous and Ordered modeling approaches
• Develop Family of Parts / Family of Assemblies for configurable product designs.
• Support 150% design methodology enabling multiple product variants within a single structure.
• Optimize CAD models for downstream integration with Teamcenter.
• Define and enforce CAD standards and modeling guidelines.
• Collaborate with engineering and PLM teams to align CAD structure with BOM strategy.

Teamcenter & PLM (Preferred Skills):

• Experience with Teamcenter (TC 2512 or similar versions preferred).
• Understanding of CAD-to-PLM integration (Solid Edge ↔ Teamcenter).
• Knowledge of 150% EBOM / DBOM structures and transformation to 100% EBOM.
• Exposure to Teamcenter Product Configurator and rule-based variant design.
• Understanding of how CAD intent maps to BOM and product configuration.
• Familiarity with Structure Manager, revision/release, and change management (ECR/ECO).
• Ability to ensure CAD models are PLM-ready and reusable.

Hands-On & Demonstration Capability (Critical):

• Ability to take flawed CAD data and rework it into optimized structures.
• Translate CAD best practices into real working models.
• Conduct live demonstration sessions showing before/after improvements.
• Act as a mentor and drive adoption of best CAD practices.
• Strong technical storytelling and problem-solving ability.

Core Expertise Required:

• 5+ years of hands-on experience with Solid Edge CAD.
• Strong expertise in:
  • Variables Table & parametric design
  • Family of Assemblies
  • Top-down design methodology
  • Design intent-driven modeling
• Proven experience in CAD rework, optimization, and legacy data conversion.
• Ability to differentiate between quick fixes and robust engineering-grade modeling.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience in configurable product environments.
• Exposure to PLM-driven design processes.
• Knowledge of CAD automation, rules-based design, or customization.
• Experience defining CAD governance and standards.

Key Competencies

• Strong diagnostic and CAD restructuring capability
• Ability to connect CAD → BOM → PLM → configuration
• Excellent communication and demonstration skills
• High attention to design scalability and quality
• Strong influence in driving CAD best practices adoption

Success Criteria:

• CAD models are variable-driven, scalable, and configuration-ready
• Seamless transition from 150% DBOM/EBOM to 100% EBOM
• Effective use of Family of Assemblies and Teamcenter configuration
• Improved team adoption of CAD best practices
• Reduced rework and downstream BOM issues

Key Differentiators:

• Focus on CAD rework and correction (not just design)
• Strong emphasis on Variables Table & Family of Assemblies
• Alignment with 150% design and PLM strategy
• Hands-on demonstration-led leadership approach
• Strong integration mindset with Teamcenter (TC 2512)
