Torrance, CA - Relocation Assistance Provided

The Company

Our client’s mission is to expand humanity’s frontier into the solar system and beyond. The next step on this journey is to enable manufacturing and habitation in Low Earth Orbit (LEO). Our client’s plan to make this a reality is to build artificial gravity space stations.

The job

Our client is looking for a Teamcenter Application Engineer, reporting to the Director of Information Systems, to support the development of the systems that will be required for the design and build of artificial-gravity human-rated space stations.

You will support the development, deployment, and support of enterprise PLM and CAD systems that are critical to the engineering lifecycle of our human-rated space stations. This individual will lead feature development and implementation of Teamcenter PLM with associated business applications, working closely with the Engineering Applications team and cross-functional stakeholders including Design, Manufacturing, Supply Chain, and R&D.

Functions

• Implement and maintain a reliable, performant PLM platform (Teamcenter) to support mechanical design and engineering workflows.
• Develop, configure, and support integrations between Teamcenter, NX, and related business systems (ERP, ECAD, MCAD, AWS).
• Anticipate tool and infrastructure needs, work with multiple organizations, and develop and implement processes, workflows and customizations to enable successful and rapid development.
• Capture user requirements and translate them into technical solutions, including workflows, business rules, and data models.
• Manage PLM tool customization, BMIDE configuration, and server-side development using ITK and Teamcenter APIs.
• Support and troubleshoot issues related to CAD data management, change control, workflows, and user access.
• Collaborate with engineering, software, and IT teams to automate processes, improve data quality, and support scalability across systems.
• Design, deploy, and maintain infrastructure solutions using cloud platforms like AWS.
• Provide training, documentation, and user support for Teamcenter and NX features.
• Stay up to date with emerging trends and technologies in PLM, DevSecOps, and software development to continually improve tools and infrastructure.
• Support deployment pipelines and DevOps practices to streamline updates and ensure system reliability and compliance.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Electrical/Computer Engineering, or a related field—or equivalent experience.
• 5+ years of experience administering and developing within PLM/PDM environments, particularly Teamcenter and NX.
• Proficiency with Teamcenter applications such as Workflow Designer, Structure Manager, Change Management, and Access Manager.
• Experience with BMIDE, ITK development, and NX Open API.
• Understanding of engineering data lifecycle, 3D modeling, Bill of Materials (BOM), and product configuration.
• Strong background in system and data integration technologies (e.g., middleware, MCAD/ECAD integrations).
• Hands-on experience configuring and supporting AWS-based infrastructure and cloud-native application development.
• Experience developing and maintaining CI/CD pipelines and automating engineering workflows.
  

Preferred Skills

• Multiple years of experience customizing PDM/PLM/CAD workflows and processes.
• Familiarity with Windows and Linux servers, scripting (Batch, PowerShell, Bash), and system administration tasks.
• Experience with LDAP, SAML, and other authentication protocols.
• Understanding of network and infrastructure fundamentals (routing, switching, firewalls).
• Familiarity with FlexLM license servers, license usage monitoring, and license optimization.
• Strong documentation and communication skills, with the ability to engage with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Prior experience in a high-growth startup or aerospace environment is highly desirable.
