PLM / CAD Designer (Siemens NX & Teamcenter)

Job Title: PLM / CAD Designer (Siemens NX & Teamcenter) Experience Level: 3–5 Years Employment Type: Full-time Location: Remote 1. About the Role We are seeking an experienced and detail-oriented PLM / CAD Designer with specialized expertise in Siemens NX and Teamcenter. In this role, you will be responsible for creating complex 3D parametric models, managing manufacturing drawings, and ensuring seamless product data integration within our Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) environment. With 3–5 years of experience, you will be expected to work independently on component designs, manage complex assemblies, and strictly adhere to engineering standards and data management workflows. 2. Key Responsibilities 3D CAD Modeling: Design and develop complex 3D parametric parts, surface models, and large assemblies utilizing Siemens NX. Engineering Drawings: Create, revise, and release precise 2D production drawings, incorporating comprehensive Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T) principles. PLM Data Management: Utilize Siemens Teamcenter to manage CAD data, structure Bills of Materials (BOMs), initiate Engineering Change Orders (ECO/ECN), and track product lifecycles. Design for Excellence (DFX): Apply Design for Manufacturing (DFM) and Design for Assembly (DFA) principles to ensure components are cost-effective and manufacturable. Collaboration: Partner closely with manufacturing, quality, and structural analysis (FEA) teams to validate design feasibility and implement optimization iterations. Standardization: Enforce and maintain corporate CAD modeling methodologies, modeling practices, and standard parts libraries inside Teamcenter. 3. Requirements 3.1. Technical Skills Experience: 3–5 years of professional engineering design experience utilizing Siemens NX and Teamcenter in a production environment (e.g., Automotive, Aerospace, Industrial Machinery, or Medical Devices). CAD Mastery: Advanced proficiency in Siemens NX (latest versions preferred), focusing on solid modeling, advanced surfacing, and top-down assembly management. PLM Proficiency: Hands-on experience with Siemens Teamcenter for data check-in/check-out, workflow navigation, and BOM structure configuration. Engineering Principles: Strong understanding of manufacturing processes (e.g., injection molding, sheet metal fabrication, machining, or casting) and advanced GD&T (ASME Y14.5) application. Tolerance Stack-up: Proven capability to perform basic to intermediate tolerance stack-up analyses to prevent assembly interference. 3.2. Soft Skills Problem Solving: Strong analytical mindset to diagnose geometric errors, system mismatches, or design flaws. Communication: Clear verbal and written communication skills to articulate design revisions and technical constraints to cross-functional teams. Organization: Excellent file management and workflow tracking discipline within the PLM system. Nice-to-Have Experience with Siemens NX routing modules (electrical cabling or piping). Familiarity with Teamcenter Active Workspace (AW) interface. Basic understanding of Finite Element Analysis (FEA) or mold flow simulations within the NX environment.
