The Work You’ll Do

The Knowledge Based Engineer Senior Consultant executes hands-on work to capture engineering knowledge and translate it into governed, machine-executable rules and models used by engineers and AI-enabled workflows. This role is expected to be productive quickly, owning modules end-to-end (e.g., a product area rule set or defined knowledge domain), working directly with senior engineers, and building, testing, and documenting reusable knowledge assets.

• Facilitate knowledge capture with senior engineers (interviews, decision replay on past cases, rule extraction) and translate judgment into executable knowledge assets.
• Use GenAI-enabled methods to extract and structure knowledge from documents and prior decisions; validate outputs with expert engineers.
• Model rules, parameters, and constraints into a structured knowledge model linked to requirements, parts/variants, and supplier/product data as applicable.
• Build design/calculation automation or configuration logic integrated with engineering systems (e.g., CAD, PLM, requirements repositories).
• Build and test retrieval and agent workflows that consume the knowledge layer, including rule deference logic and human approval points.
• Maintain traceability from outputs to source/rule; document assumptions, owners, and versions to support governance and reuse.
• Capture exceptions and approved fixes and feed them back into the knowledge base (continuous improvement loop).
• Support deployment by partnering with architects/platform teams; draft client-ready deliverables, demos, and concise storylines.

A successful candidate would possess these skills:

• Ability to work independently and collaborate as part of a team
• Effective written and verbal communication skills
• Meticulous attention to detail and quality of work product
• Ability to build and sustain professional relationships
• Ability to lead projects or workstreams
• Ability to manage and prioritize multiple tasks in a fast-paced and dynamic environment
• Strong interpersonal skills and professional demeanor
• Ability to meet deadlines
• Ability to mentor and provide clear guidance to others
