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.

• 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
  4754A.

• 18+ years in enterprise / solution architecture, with major PLM landscapes in scope.
• Proven design of integrated architectures spanning PLM, CAD, ERP and MES/MOM; strong command of Siemens Teamcenter's enterprise architect role.
• Experience designing AI-ready / API-open platforms and understanding of agentic / MCP integration patterns for augmented engineering.
• Experience architecting for onshore–offshore delivery models that mirror a client organization.
• Experience in Aerospace & Defense or another regulated, complex-product industry.
