Engineering Data Systems Specialist

We are seeking an Engineering Data Systems Specialist to build and own the engineering data pipeline that carries our designs from concept to production - PDM configuration, formal release flow, and ERP integration - in support of the development of our self-propelled battery-electric railcars and vehicles. Today that pipeline runs on Autodesk Inventor and Vault Professional feeding product structure and BOMs into Odoo ERP, and the electrical team’s wire-harness designs in RapidHarness need the same clean path into that release and BOM model. This is a builder’s role: it calls for someone who has stood up or substantially reconfigured Vault Professional from scratch and is looking to own PDM * release * ERP/harness end to end, not administer a pipeline someone else already built.

This role reports to the Director of Engineering and works closely with the design engineering team and Manufacturing/Supply Chain - the design team drafts parts; this role owns the system and data that carries their output downstream. This is a full-time, 100% in-office role based in St. Louis, MO. This role works within a team of 3-10 engineers., * Engineering Data Pipeline Ownership: Design and continuously improve how engineering data moves from concept through release to production - ECN/ECO workflows, release states, and change authority - end to end across PDM, release, and downstream systems.

• Vault Implementation & Configuration: Own the configuration of Autodesk Vault Professional - lifecycles, revision schemes, categories, custom properties, permissions, and client/server deployment - built and maintained from the ground up, not just administered.
• ERP Integration: Build and own the path from Vault-managed product structures and BOMs into Odoo ERP, keeping Manufacturing and Supply Chain working from accurate, release-controlled data.
• Harness Data Integration: Bring RapidHarness wire-harness design data into the same BOM and release model as the mechanical/electrical product structure, so it isn’t a side path.
• Data Integrity & Governance: Own the data-integrity standards - version control, naming conventions, categories, and archival - that keep the pipeline reliable.
• Configuration Control: Design and maintain the part-numbering scheme that underpins the product structure as it matures toward production.
• Cross-Team Enablement: Support designers and Manufacturing/Supply Chain on PDM/CAD workflows and troubleshoot pipeline issues as they come up.

• Hands-on experience setting up and/or substantially configuring Autodesk Vault (Professional preferred) in a multi-user engineering environment - lifecycles, revision schemes, custom properties, permissions, and client/server deployment. Configuration/implementation experience, not only end-user familiarity.
• Associate’s or Bachelor’s Degree in Information Technology, Engineering, or a related field - or equivalent hands-on Vault/PDM configuration experience. A degree does not substitute for Vault configuration experience.
• Comfort with Windows-based engineering IT - clients, servers, and user access/permissions.
• Experience with product structures/BOMs and formal engineering change/release processes (ECN/ECO or equivalent).
• Clear interest in building and owning an engineering data pipeline across PDM, release, and downstream systems - not only ticket-driven support.
• Willingness to expand into technical areas beyond your area of expertise; ability to develop innovative and novel approaches.
• Practical collaborator who works with both designers and operations, explains process clearly, ships incremental improvements rather than waiting for a full spec, and is comfortable working as an individual contributor in a teaming environment.
• Fluent in both written and verbal English.
• U.S. Person (immigration or work visa sponsorship will not be provided).

Preferred Qualifications (Desired Skills/Experience)

Candidate should have a working knowledge of one or (ideally) multiple areas listed below:

• Odoo (or other ERP) integration with CAD/PDM BOMs - mapping, sync, or process ownership.
• RapidHarness or other wire-harness design tools - administering them, or integrating their export data into PDM/ERP.
• Autodesk Inventor familiarity, enough to support and troubleshoot the design team’s workflows.
• Scripting/automation (PowerShell, Vault API, SQL) to reduce manual pipeline work.
• Manufacturing, rail, Electric Vehicle (EV), or similar hardware product environment.
• Windows Server / SQL Server exposure in support of Vault.

Typical Education and Experience

Education/experience typically acquired through technical education (e.g. Associate and/or Bachelor) and typically 3 or more years’ related work experience, or an equivalent combination of technical education and experience.
