Dearborn, Michigan
Back-end Software Development Engineer #1037731Job Description:
About the Project:
- The Product development Bill of Material (BOM), Features and Change Management application, vital for automotive product development.
- This system helps over 9000+ Automotive Engineers manage vehicle program features, parts, and usages, providing essential data for manufacturing and assembly. Currently, this core application uses Java-J2EE, JavaFX, WebSphere, Web Services, XML, SQL Server, and PostgreSQL.
- We are undertaking a strategic migration to re-platform it onto the Dassault Systèms 3DEXPERIENCE (3DX) platform, primarily using ENOVIA for PLM and BOM management, with strong integration to CATIA for design data.
- This transformation is key to building advanced digital twins and streamlining our automotive product development.
- As a 3DX Developer, you will be crucial in this transformation, designing, coding, and implementing robust software solutions within the 3DX ecosystem.
- You will directly impact how our next-generation vehicles are designed and manufactured.
- Our team also develops APIs for integrations, ensures system security, and explores AI/ML projects (including Large Language Models - LLMs) for BOM utilization and other efficiencies. We operate in an Agile environment, using tools like GCP Cloud Build, Tekton, Jira, and GitHub.
Position Description:
- Develop and customize 3DX solutions focusing on ENOVIA for automotive PLM, BOM, configuration, and change management.
- Lead code-based migration of existing Java BOM functionalities to 3DX, including data transformation and API development.
- Write and maintain complex customizations, scripts, and integrations using EKL, MQL, Java (for 3DSpace/ENOVIA), JavaScript (for client-side), and Web Services/APIs.
- Collaborate with Automotive Design, Engineering, Manufacturing and Supply Chain teams to translate requirements into effective 3DX software solutions.
- Develop Unit and Integration test cases for 3DX code, customizations, and integrations.
- Troubleshoot, debug, and provide code fixes for deployment and production issues.
- Participate actively in Agile ceremonies (e.g., Backlog Refinement, Stand-ups).
- Provide rotational support for the 3DX application.
- (Optional) Develop integrations to connect 3DX data with AI/ML tools (Python, Qliksense, Alteryx, LLMs) for advanced analytics and automation.
Primary Skills Required:
- 3DX Development Expertise: Strong hands-on experience developing, customizing, and extending ENOVIA (V6/3DEXPERIENCE) for automotive BOM, variant, configuration, and change management.
- 3DX Programming: Expert in EKL, MQL, and Java for 3DSpace/ENOVIA server-side development.
- Web & API Development: Strong JavaScript (e.g., 3DX widgets), Web Services (REST/SOAP), and API integration skills with 3DX.
- Automotive CAD Integration: Experience developing integrations for CATIA V5/V6 data within 3DEXPERIENCE.
- Database Development: Strong SQL, including schema understanding and complex queries for PLM data.
- Version Control: Proficient with GitHub or similar.
- Agile Development: Solid experience with Scrum/Kanban.
- Automotive PLM Principles: Deep understanding of PLM concepts and data structures in the automotive industry, and how they translate to software design.
Skills Required:
- PLM MUST NEED!
Skills Preferred:
- Experience with large-scale PLM system migration development.
- Knowledge of 3DEXPERIENCE cloud deployments (GCP) and cloud development.
- Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines for 3DX code deployments (Tekton).

- Exposure to AI, Machine Learning (ML), and Large Language Models (LLMs), especially their application in engineering or PLM.
- Monitoring tools: Splunk, Dynatrace.
- Knowledge of enterprise integration patterns with SAP in automotive manufacturing.
- Experience developing integrations/customizations for DELMIA (manufacturing) or SIMULIA (simulation) in automotive.
Experience Required:
- 4+ years hands-on 3DEXPERIENCE (3DX) platform development, customization, and integration (specifically ENOVIA) within the automotive or a closely related manufacturing industry.
- Proven experience coding and implementing solutions for PLM system migration or major enhancements.
- 4+ years in Agile Development environments.
Experience Required:
- Engineer 3 Exp: Prac. In 2 coding lang. or adv. Prac. in 1 lang.
- 6+ years in IT
- 4+ years in development
Education:
- Degree Type: 4-year degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, Software Engineering, or a related technical field. (Mechanical/Automotive Engineering degrees are also relevant if combined with strong programming skills).
