Design Methods Engineer - Tools Support (Onsite)

What You Will Do: Support maturation of current model-based engineering tools to production readiness, including assisting in validation activities for Quality Management System (QMS) compliance. Provide help-desk operations for current and future deployed model-based tools, resolving user issues, performing debugging, and coordinating defect resolution with software vendors and internal developers. Assist the MB-DMI Strategic Lead to develop and implement cross-functional strategies for consumption of MBD data elements within native and derivative toolchains. Perform validation and production-readiness assessments of the model-based tools ecosystem, ensuring tools support consistent digital product definition for Production parts. Support efforts to standardize Engineering usage conventions, modeling practices, and consumption patterns for all supported model-based tools. Maintain and sustain tools used for development-part definition, ensuring compatibility as new capabilities mature and standards evolve. Contribute to scalable software stack development and sustainment planning to ensure continuity across upstream design and downstream manufacturing/inspection systems. Assist in evaluating and integrating software enhancements (e.g., NX updates, PMI improvements) into established enterprise roadmaps and tool deployment plans. Conduct consumption testing and data validation for MBD elements across PLM, CAD, CAM, CAI, and MES systems. Collaborate with software vendors to guide development, debugging, enhancement prioritization, and long-term tool evolution. Work with Manufacturing, Operations, Supplier Quality, and Digital Technologies teams to understand their digital maturity and provide debugging, troubleshooting, and adoption support. Deliverables: Support completion of REPM Production Readiness (Gate D) for all model-based engineering tools. Updated and standardized Engineering workflows, methods, and usage conventions for model-based tools across both development and production part definition. Help-desk support structure with defined SLAs, triage processes, and escalation paths. Engineering Standard Work & Training for creation, validation, and consumption of digital product definition using MB-DMI tools. Tool specification documents, deployment playbooks, and sustainment plans for scalable software solutions.
