  • Lead or champion reliability, capability, and continuous improvement projects related to the CAD/PLM environment; quantify benefits, document outcomes, and implement sustainable improvements.
  • Ensure CAD configuration activities comply with site security, quality, and regulatory standards; assess and mitigate operational and data-security risks related to the engineering toolset.

Required Qualifications

  • Education: Associate degree or Bachelor's degree in Information Technology, Computer Science, Engineering, Drafting/Design, or equivalent work experience.
  • Experience: 2–4 years of experience in an IT helpdesk/technical support role.
  • CAD Experience: Minimum 1–2 years of experience supporting or directly using CAD platforms (NX, SolidWorks) in a professional environment.
  • Working knowledge interpreting NX Logs/Sys Logs
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills to effectively interact with all levels of the organization.
  • Problem‑Solving: Excellent troubleshooting skills with a methodical approach to diagnosing complex software conflicts.
  • Communication: Ability to explain complex technical issues to both highly technical engineers and non-technical staff.
  • Customer Service: A patient, empathetic, and helpful attitude toward end-users under tight deadlines.
  • Organization: Strong multitasking skills to manage a high volume of tickets while prioritizing critical CAD‑stoppage issues.
