As a Product Development Engineer - 3DX Development & Deployment Specialist, you will focus on 3DEXPERIENCE (3DX) Product Lifecycle Management solutions, empowering engineering and operations teams to efficiently manage and deliver product data and change at scale. In this role, you will leverage an Agile approach to conceptualize, build, test, and deploy 3DX/ENOVIA Code, Debug Kit, Pinpoint to manage Software Fix Releases customizations, widgets, and data pipelines grounded in current 3DX practices. Key responsibilities include: - Design, develop, test, and deploy customizations and integrations within the 3DEXPERIENCE/ENOVIA platform, including MQL/JPO-based extensions, 3DEXPERIENCE Web Services, and role-based UI components. - Customize and optimize ENOVIA data models (types, policies, relationships, attributes, lifecycles) to meet product specifications and vehicle requirements while ensuring optimal system performance and scalability. - Develop custom widgets and user-friendly interfaces to streamline workflows, increase adoption, and reduce cycle times; provide end-to-end technical support with root-cause analysis and long-term corrective actions. - Lead 3DX patching and upgrades (including future 3DX Rx releases): scope and impact analysis, regression testing, cutover/rollback planning, environment validation, and publication of change documentation and runbooks. - Provide Level 2/3 technical support: triage incidents, conduct root-cause analysis, implement corrective/preventive actions, and maintain operational knowledge bases; manage Service Requests (SRs) and Enhancement Requests (ERs) with the vendor to resolution. - Monitor system health and performance; implement proactive maintenance, configuration hygiene, and security/access reviews across environments. - Extract Platform related reports (Object Based/incident based) as per business needs/requirements. - Establish CI/CD practices for PLM components and scripts where applicable; automate build, unit tests, packaging, and deployment for JPOs, MQL artifacts, and widgets with versioned, traceable releases. - Apply code quality scanning and peer reviews; plan schedules, forecast timelines, create and manage service orders, and provide clear status updates to business and cross-functional teams in an Agile model. - Maintain promotion controls between development, test, and production environments; ensure reproducibility and fast rollback. - Develop custom interfaces using Java and 3DEXPERIENCE Web Services to enable reliable transactions across PLM modules and connected applications. - Author service interactions and handlers consistent with 3DX modeler concepts, including payload design, error handling, and traceability across environments. - Maintain technical documentation, sequence diagrams, and runbooks to support supportability and knowledge transfer. - Perform data migration and transformation using TCL scripts, Data Load utilities, and custom loaders; execute high-volume loads with robust validation and reconciliation. - Validate data integrity and consistency across ENOVIA and related modules; deliver reconciliation reports and dashboards to ensure complete, accurate cutovers. - Implement audit trails, exception handling, and recovery procedures to safeguard data quality before and after go-live. - Establish traceable promotion paths and environment parity to support high-volume loads and reliable, repeatable migrations from legacy applications. - Design, develop, and integrate AI/ML and Data Intelligence capabilities within the 3DEXPERIENCE ecosystem to improve data quality and engineering efficiency,targeting use cases such as BOM reconciliation, metadata/part classification, anomaly detection, and predictive quality checks; surface guidance through 3DX widgets and services for real-time decision support. - Architect and operate complementary model/data pipelines that consume PLM datasets (3DXML/PLMXML, BOMs, metadata), enabling feature extraction, model evaluation, versioning, CI/CD for models, automated testing, monitoring for drift, and secure deployments with rollback and reproducibility; ensure lineage and integration with existing PLM data flows. - Collaborate with data and standards stakeholders to define acceptance criteria and validation methods for AI-assisted rules, publish runbooks, and train users on responsible use of AI within PLM processes. - Administer and optimize user and role-based license allocation within 3DEXPERIENCE to ensure compliance and cost-effectiveness; maintain accurate entitlement records and access controls. - Monitor license usage trends and forecast demand; coordinate procurement and renewals with internal stakeholders and the software vendor; implement governance and periodic audits. - Provide guidance on license models for new programs and environments, ensuring efficient utilization during releases, migrations, and cutovers. - Partner with engineering design, manufacturing, quality, suppliers, and IT/security stakeholders to translate business needs into scalable 3DX solutions across Variant Configuration, Export Control, Program/Engineering, IP Management, and Change Management. - Coordinate with training and program teams to develop documentation, conduct demos and user enablement sessions, and drive adoption and measurable efficiency gains in multi-site/global environments. ## Skills ### Required - 3DEXPERIENCE - ENOVIA - Java - Web Services - PLM - Agile - CI/CD - TCL - Data Load utilities - Custom loaders - AI/ML - Data Intelligence - BOM reconciliation - Metadata/part classification - Anomaly detection - Predictive quality checks - Feature extraction - Model evaluation - Versioning - Automated testing - Monitoring for drift - Secure deployments - Lineage and integration - User and role-based license allocation - Entitlement records and access controls - License usage trends and forecast demand - Procurement and renewals - Governance and periodic audits - Variant Configuration - Export Control - Program/Engineering - IP Management - Change Management --- Source: [Apply at efds.fa.em5.oraclecloud.com](https://efds.fa.em5.oraclecloud.com/hcmUI/CandidateExperience/en/sites/CX_1/job/64768?utm_source=yubhub.co&utm_medium=jobs_feed&utm_campaign=apply)
