We are hiring an Engineering Lead for Product Lifecycle Management to own the technical delivery of Avathon's PLM integrations and the AI capabilities built on top of them. You will work alongside our Forward Deployed Design Leads and customer engineering teams to connect PLM, CAD/PDM, ERP and MES systems to the Avathon platform, model product structures and engineering change flows in our Computational Knowledge Graph, and ship the BOM comparison, change impact and digital thread features customers use every day.

This is a hands‑on lead role. You will write code, own the integration architecture, and lead a small team of engineers through implementation, go‑live and hyper‑care.

• Own the technical design for integrating customer PLM systems (Teamcenter, Windchill, 3
  
  DEXPERIENCE, SAP PLM, Oracle Agile) with the Avathon platform
• Build and maintain connectors and data pipelines from PLM, CAD/PDM, ERP and MES sources into our Bronze/Silver/Gold data lake
• Define canonical data models for parts, EBOM and MBOM structures, variants, effectivity and engineering changes
• Set standards for data quality, sync latency and reconciliation between source systems and the platform

• Build the backend services behind BOM comparison, engineering change impact and clear-to-build views
• Work with our ML, data science and agent teams to apply Normal Behavior Models and AI agents to PLM data, such as flagging unusual ECR patterns or change-driven supply risk
• Turn one-off customer work into reusable platform components

• Hands on lead to through discovery, build, go‑live and hypercare on customer deployments
• Run technical working sessions with customer PLM, IT and engineering teams and act as the senior technical contact on the account
• Own go‑live readiness: integration testing, data validation, performance and security review
• Review designs and code, set engineering practices, and mentor engineers on the PLM domain
• Partner with design, product and customer success to scope work, call out risk early and keep delivery on plan

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering or a related field
• 8+ years of software engineering experience, including 3+ years leading engineers or technical delivery
• Hands‑on integration experience with at least one enterprise…
