The Product Realization and Reliability Office (PRRO) in Nuclear Production Operations consists of a multidisciplinary group of engineers and scientists that support plutonium programs (i.e., pit production, surveillance, research & development, and subcritical experiments) across the entire Nuclear Production Operations organization.
PRRO is seeking a PLM solutions architect to lead the strategic implementation of a Product Lifecycle Management solution in a complex, highly regulated manufacturing environment. You will drive PLM adoption to increase efficiency, reduce error potential, and streamline information management across engineering, manufacturing, and as-built operations. This role focuses on creating a fully configuration-managed product data environment that enhances shop floor productivity without adding burden to production personnel.
The selected candidate will be responsible to:
- Map current process and procedure requirements to PLM capabilities
- Lead the deployment and connection of PTC MPMLink to support shop floor activities
- Plan configurations needed to PTC MPMLink workflows, forms, and interfaces to streamline shop floor operations and enhance productivity.
- Collaborate closely with production teams to understand their workflow requirements and implement tailored solutions that optimize efficiency and accuracy.
- Provide leadership across groups to coordinate MPMLink standup, training, and implementation.
- Provide technical support to production personnel on PTC MPMLink usage, ensuring smooth adoption and adherence to standardized processes.
- Continuously monitor system performance and identify opportunities for improvement to drive operational excellence on the shop floor.
- Work closely with cross-functional teams to ensure seamless integration between PTC MPMLink and other shop floor systems and tools such as MRP and MES.
- Preparing demonstrators to help support widespread adoption
- Co-develop policies around capability interfaces
- Collaborating with our design agency and other production agency digital engineering teams to achieve a holistic integration of PLM capabilities.
- Provide work oversight to junior engineers working in the PLM domain.
- Outline multi-year technical plans for PLM adoption and system connections enabling closed loop manufacturing.
- Interface with enterprise-wide efforts to ensure nuclear production needs are met
- Coordinate training as needed to increase usage of shop floor data.
Minimum
Job Requirements:
- Demonstrated experience architecting and implementing PLM solutions for manufacturing environments
- Strong understanding of data flows through the as-designed, as-planned, and as-built lifecycle states
- Experience tracing policy/requirements to system configurations.
- Experience in aspects of project management of technical work, including defining work scope, schedules, priorities, and performance milestones.
- Experience in directing work of a small number of team members towards a common goal.
- Excellent communication skills with ability to translate technical concepts for diverse audiences.
Experience:
Position requires a Bachelor's Degree and 12 years of related experience or an equivalent combination of education and experience directly related to the occupation.
Q Clearance: This position requires a Q clearance and obtaining such clearance requires US Citizenship except in extremely rare circumstances. Selected applicants will be subject to a background investigation conducted by, or on behalf of, the Federal Government for access to classified matter.
Desired
Qualifications:
- Proven experience deploying PLM solutions such as PTC MPMLink to support shop floor activities in a manufacturing environment.
- Experience with manufacturing execution systems (MES), ERP systems, and other manufacturing-oriented systems
- Familiarity with data modeling, information architecture, and enterprise integration patterns
- Excellent problem-solving skills with a demonstrated ability to analyze complex shop floor challenges and implement effective solutions.
- Exceptional communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively with shop floor personnel and cross-functional teams.
- Proactive mindset with a passion for driving continuous improvement and operational excellence in a manufacturing environment.
- Familiarity with PLM from design through as-built and being able to conceptualize how shop floor activities tie to each lifecycle phase a plus.
- Experience with private industry production a plus. Highly…
