Cideon​/NextLabs SME; Techno-Functional – Technical​/Functional

This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for a Cideon / Next Labs Application SME (Techno-Functional- 70% Technical / 30% Functional) based in Switzerland.

This role is a key technical authority position focused on driving large-scale CAD and engineering data migration programs across complex enterprise environments. You will work at the intersection of CAD, PLM, and enterprise integration, ensuring data is accurately extracted, transformed, validated, and securely migrated using CIDEON tools. Acting as a hands-on SME, you will also support system integrations, enforce data governance standards, and ensure compliance through Next Labs solutions.

The role requires close collaboration with program managers, engineering teams, and global stakeholders to deliver high-quality migration outcomes. It is a highly technical, execution-driven position where precision, structure, and scalability are essential. You will also contribute to improving migration frameworks and integration reliability across distributed systems.

Lead and execute end-to-end CAD and engineering data migration initiatives using CIDEON tools, ensuring accuracy, traceability, and alignment with enterprise program timelines.

• Define and implement migration strategies including extraction, transformation, validation, reconciliation, and cutover planning across complex CAD-PLM environments.
• Support integration between CAD systems, PLM platforms, and downstream enterprise applications while ensuring data consistency and workflow continuity.
• Enforce data governance, compliance policies, and secure access controls using Next Labs or similar policy-driven security tools.
• Collaborate with program managers and cross-functional teams to ensure delivery within scope, schedule, and quality expectations.
• Troubleshoot migration, integration, and system-level issues across distributed engineering ecosystems.
• Define migration standards, validation rules, and best practices to improve scalability and repeatability of processes.

Experienced CAD/PLM technical professional with strong exposure to enterprise data migration, integration, and engineering systems in large-scale environments.

• Hands-on expertise with CIDEON tools and CAD platforms such as AutoCAD, Autodesk Inventor, and Solid Works.
• Strong knowledge of PLM/PDM systems including SAP PLM, Siemens Teamcenter, PTC Windchill, or Autodesk Vault.
• Solid understanding of ETL processes, CAD-PLM integration workflows, APIs, and system integration principles.
• Experience with scripting and automation using SQL, Python, and/or Power Shell.
• Familiarity with Next Labs or similar policy-based compliance/security tools is highly desirable.
• Strong analytical mindset with excellent problem‑solving skills in complex engineering data environments.
• Ability to communicate effectively with both technical and functional stakeholders in global, distributed teams.

• Remote-first work model with collaboration across global teams
• Long-term engagement opportunity in enterprise-scale transformation programs
• Exposure to complex CAD-PLM ecosystems and advanced migration projects
• Collaboration with international stakeholders across multiple time zones (EST overlap)
• Opportunity to work with cutting-edge enterprise integration and security tools
• Dynamic, technically challenging environment with high ownership and autonomy
