3DX Developer

3DX Developer

About the Project: The client's 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 Systmes 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.

Responsibilities

• 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:

3DX. 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:
• Prac. In 2 coding lang. or adv. Prac. in 1 lang.
• 6+ years in IT
• 4+ years in development
