Application Support Engineer L3 Jobs in Michigan

Job Description:

3DEXPERIENCE L3 Support Engineer

Role Overview:

·       The 3DEXPERIENCE Level 3 (L3) Support Engineer is a technical position responsible for providing advanced troubleshooting, diagnostics, and resolution of complex production issues across the Dassault Systèmes 3DEXPERIENCE platform.

·       This role serves as the critical bridge between core development, platform administration, and operations teams, with primary ownership of maintaining, debugging, and optimizing custom code (Data Model, JPOs, EKL, Triggers) and platform configurations as code.

·       The ideal candidate brings a developer''''''''s mindset to production stability, combining deep technical expertise with disciplined root cause analysis to ensure platform reliability, performance, and scalability in a mission-critical enterprise environment.

Responsibilities:

·       Advanced Troubleshooting (L3 Escalation): Serve as the highest technical escalation point for the 3DEXPERIENCE platform, resolving critical production incidents that cannot be addressed by Level 1 and Level 2 support teams. Drive incident resolution within defined SLAs. Customization Support: Debug, patch, and enhance custom-developed components, including JPOs (Java Program Objects), MQL scripts, Python utilities, Triggers, and EKL (Enterprise Knowledge Language) rules and checks.

·       Configuration Management: Maintain and troubleshoot platform configurations, including Type/Attribute/Relationship modeling, Lifecycle and State definitions, Access Control Lists (ACLs), Trigger configurations, and UWA/Native Widgets. Root Cause Analysis (RCA): Conduct deep-dive investigations into recurring failures, system bottlenecks, and data integrity issues. Deliver permanent corrective actions and architectural recommendations rather than tactical workarounds.

·       Performance Tuning: Analyze TomEE/WebSphere application server logs, database execution plans, and client-side traces to identify and remediate performance degradation across 3DEXPERIENCE apps, widgets, and services.

·       Vendor Collaboration: Interface directly with Dassault Systèmes Support by raising and managing Service Requests (SRs) for confirmed product defects. Provide structured reproduction steps, diagnostic logs, and test cases to accelerate vendor resolution.

·       Deployment & Upgrades: Support deployment of Hot Fixes, Fix Packs (FP), and Function Releases (FR/FD). Contribute to impact analysis, regression validation, and cutover planning for platform upgrades and migrations.

·       Knowledge Management: Maintain a structured knowledge base of known issues, validated workarounds, RCA reports, and operational Run Books to enable upstream support tiers and reduce mean time to resolution (MTTR).
