Capgemini is hiring an Enterprise Architect to own the end-to-end target architecture for a large, complex PLM modernization at a major Aerospace & Defense OEM — anchored on a Siemens Teamcenter backbone and connected across the engineering, manufacturing and certification ecosystem.

You are skilled across the full lifecycle — from scoping and shaping through to delivery and run — and you make the integration, data, AI-readiness and digital-continuity decisions that let a multi-system landscape behave as one coherent, agent-ready digital thread.

Your Role Define and govern the target-state PLM architecture centered on Siemens Teamcenter, covering CAD management, process planning, and integrations with ERP, MES/MOM, ALM, and certification systems.

Design and maintain an end-to-end digital thread that ensures traceability and data continuity across requirements, engineering, manufacturing, change management, and certification processes.

Architect and enable an AI-powered, agentic-ready PLM ecosystem through open APIs, structured data accessibility, MCP/agentic integration layers, and support for augmented engineering use cases.

Establish the AI-Powered PLM strategy and roadmap, identifying high-value AI and agentic opportunities while enabling an AI-accelerated software development and delivery lifecycle.

Define the enterprise integration strategy, ensuring seamless interoperability between Teamcenter and adjacent engineering, manufacturing, and business systems while maintaining scalability, security, and performance.

Lead architecture decision-making, including build-versus-configure evaluations, platform sizing, non-functional requirements, upgradeability considerations, and optimization of total cost of ownership.

Advise engineering, business, and IT stakeholders on future-state operating models, architecture direction, investment priorities, and phased transformation roadmaps aligned with business objectives and budgets.

Establish and enforce architecture governance, standards, and best practices, assuring solution and technical architectures remain aligned with target-state principles and delivery objectives.

Ensure solutions comply with Aerospace & Defense regulatory and engineering requirements, including configuration management, change control, certification traceability, and relevant standards such as AS9100 and ARP
