Requirements

  • Multi-skilled experience administering and configuring Siemens NX with advanced troubleshooting capability across CAD, CAM, and CAE environments.
  • Experience configuring NX templates, customization files, role-based settings, and standardized environments for multi-user deployments.
  • Experience creating and maintaining part families, product configurators, and reusable component libraries.
  • Working knowledge of interpreting NX Logs/Sys Logs.
  • Ability to read and interpret engineering drawings, schematics, and CAD/PLM technical documentation.
  • At least 7 years of experience working in a CAD administration or NX configuration role in an engineering or production environment.

Responsibilities

  • Develop, implement, monitor, and optimize the Siemens NX CAD environment, including templates, customization files, role-based configurations, and default settings across the organization.
  • Administer and support NX installations, license servers, and integration with Teamcenter PLM; manage version upgrades, patches, and deployments to minimize disruption to engineering workflows.
  • Configure and maintain standardized part families, product configurators, drawing templates, and reusable component libraries to enforce design consistency and best practices.

  • 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.

Desired Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Computer Science, or equivalent.
  • Significant experience developing automation and customizations using NXOpen API, Knowledge Fusion, or similar frameworks.

About the Company

Anduril

Builds autonomous weapons for the US and allies

Anduril builds autonomous weapons, such as drones, cruise missiles, and robot submarines, for the US military and its allies, often developing them with its own money before any order arrives. In 2024 it beat Boeing, Lockheed Martin, and Northrop Grumman for an Air Force contract to develop Fury, a pilotless jet that flies alongside crewed fighters. Its Lattice software merges camera and radar feeds into one live map and lets a few operators direct many drones and weapons at once, including other companies' systems. Governments buy its systems under contract, and Anduril builds much of the hardware in its own factories. Oculus founder Palmer Luckey co-founded Anduril in 2017, and it is based in Costa Mesa, California.
