Job Description:
Role Overview:
Solid Edge CAD Expert (Rework, Configuration & Demonstration Specialist)
Job Summary
We are seeking a highly skilled Solid Edge CAD Expert with deep expertise in CAD rework, design methodology improvement, and configurable product modeling.
This role requires the ability to analyze existing CAD data, propose correct modeling strategies, and execute hands-on rework, demonstrating the improved solutions to stakeholders.
The role emphasizes doing CAD the right way, using Variables Table, Expressions, and Family of Assemblies, with alignment toward 150% design principles and downstream integration into Teamcenter (TC 2512) for product configuration and BOM management.
Key Responsibilities
Analyze existing CAD data to identify inefficiencies, incorrect modeling practices, and structural issues.
Define and implement rework strategies aligned with Solid Edge best practices.
Perform hands-on rework of real CAD data and demonstrate improvements through structured "show & tell" sessions.
Build scalable designs using:
o Variables Table & equation-driven modeling
o Inter-part relationships
o Proper use of Synchronous vs Ordered modeling
Develop Family of Parts / Family of Assemblies for configurable designs.
Support 150% design approach enabling multiple product variants within a single structure.
Ensure CAD models are optimized for downstream consumption in Teamcenter.
Create and enforce CAD standards and modeling guidelines.
Collaborate with engineering and PLM teams to align CAD structure with BOM strategy.
Teamcenter & PLM (Desirable Skills)
Understanding of Teamcenter (preferably TC 2512 or similar versions).
Awareness of CAD-to-PLM integration workflows (Solid Edge Teamcenter).
Familiarity with:
o 150% EBOM (Engineering BOM) structures
o 150% DBOM (Design BOM) concepts
o Transformation to 100% EBOM for execution/manufacturing
Exposure to Teamcenter Product Configurator:
o Variant configuration logic
o Option and rule-based configuration
Understanding how CAD design intent (variables, families) maps to:
o BOM structures
o Configurable product definitions in PLM
Knowledge of:
o Structure Manager
o Revision and release processes
o Change management (ECR/ECO)
Ability to ensure CAD models are:
o PLM-ready
o Properly structured for configuration and reuse
Note:
Teamcenter experience is highly desirable but not mandatory; strong CAD methodology expertise remains the primary requirement.
Hands-On & Demonstration Capability (Critical Requirement)
Ability to take existing flawed CAD data and rework it practically.
Translate theoretical best practices into real, working CAD solutions.
Conduct interactive sessions with teams:
o Show current issues
o Apply rework solutions
o Demonstrate improvements (flexibility, scalability, configuration readiness)
Act as a mentor and change agent to elevate team capability.
Strong ability in technical storytelling and live problem-solving.
Core Expertise Required
5+ years of strong hands-on experience in Solid Edge CAD.
Deep knowledge of:
o Variables Table & parametric design
o Family of Assemblies
o Top-down design methodology
o Design intent-driven modeling
Proven experience in:
o CAD rework and optimization
o Converting legacy data into clean, reusable structures
Ability to distinguish between:
o Quick/temporary modeling
o Robust engineering-grade modeling
Preferred Qualifications
Experience in configurable product environments (high variability).
Exposure to PLM-driven design processes.
Knowledge of automation, rules-based design, or CAD customization.
Experience defining CAD governance and standards.
Key Competencies
Strong diagnostic capability for CAD issues and restructuring
Ability to connect CAD BOM PLM configuration
Excellent communication and demonstration skills
High attention to design quality and scalability
Influencing mindset to drive CAD best practice adoption
What Success Looks Like
CAD models are:
o Variable-driven
o Configuration-ready
o Fully aligned with PLM/BOM strategy
Smooth transition from:
o 150% DBOM / EBOM 100% EBOM
Effective use of:
o Family of Assemblies + Teamcenter configuration
Teams adopt correct modeling practices through demonstration-led learning
Significant reduction in rework and downstream BOM issues
Key Differentiators of This Role
Focus on CAD rework and correction, not just design
Strong use of Variables Table & Family of Assemblies
Alignment with 150% design and PLM configuration strategy
Hands-on "show & tell" leadership approach
Integration mindset toward Teamcenter (TC 2512)
