We believe the hardest problems in AI are solved when researchers and engineers are hands-on with the physical world every day - and we're looking for people who are passionate about robotics, value ownership, and are excited to tackle difficult problems.\nAbout the role:\nMind Robotics is hiring a Tools and PLM Engineer to own the CAD and engineering tools our hardware teams design with. Our core platform is Dassault Systèmes 3DEXPERIENCE, and you will be its resident expert while keeping our wider toolchain running and up to date. You will build the processes that carry engineering data to manufacturing, supply chain and the rest of the company, and keep us ahead of new technology.\nResponsibilities:\nBe the expert on all of our CAD tools, such as 3DEXPERIENCE, and the go-to person for engineers on any CAD issue, from modeling and assembly problems to data, performance and licensing.\n\nOwn Mind’s engineering systems domain end to end: 3DEXPERIENCE plus the CAD, ECAD, simulation and CAM toolchain, including platform administration, configuration, upgrades, licenses and vendors.\n\nOwn the flow of engineering data from design to build. Design the processes and integrations that carry released parts, BOMs, drawings and changes to manufacturing, supply chain and quality from one source of truth, with no manual re-entry. Manufacturing, supply chain and quality plan builds, orders and inspections on this data, so when it is late or wrong, their plans move.\n\nDefine how Mind manages engineering data: part numbering, release, change management and BOM structure, including the EBOM-to-MBOM handoff.\n\nDecide which engineering-systems problems are worth solving and in what order. Set the roadmap, make the tradeoffs across teams, and explain what we are choosing not to address.\n\nEvaluate new tools and new functionality from Dassault Systèmes and other vendors. Decide what we adopt, change or retire, and lead the rollout across teams.\n\nSet the CAD, data and release standards that engineering, manufacturing, supply chain and quality work to, and build the training that makes them stick.\n\nRemove repetitive CAD and PLM work with scripts, templates, tools and API integrations, and turn recurring support issues into lasting fixes.\n\nRequirements:\nA track record of owning PLM and engineering tools for a hardware company, where other teams depended on the data and processes you ran.\n\nAdvanced, hands-on expertise across CAD tools such as 3DEXPERIENCE, not just administration and configuration, and a track record as the go-to CAD expert for an engineering team.\n\nDeep knowledge of release, change and BOM management in CAD tools such as 3DEXPERIENCE.\n\nExperience designing how engineering data reaches manufacturing and supply chain, such as EBOM-to-MBOM handoff and ERP item and BOM transfer.\n\nScripting in EKL, VBA, Python, C# or similar, and experience building on APIs.\n\nThe judgment to choose which problems to solve and which tools to adopt, and to separate real value from hype.\n\nClear communication with engineers and with leads in manufacturing, supply chain and quality, and patience as a trainer.","description_format":"text","description_chars":3244,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Robotics AI","Industrial Robotics"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-16T18:55:32Z"}],"visa":[{"country":"US","licensed_sponsor":true,"evidence":"H-1B filings in 12 months: 1","filings_12m":1,"filings_prev_12m":0,"green_card_filings_12m":0,"median_offered_wage_usd":277500,"route":null,"cap_exempt":false,"checked_at":"2026-10-15T11:24:14+00:00","sources":["US Department of Labor: LCA disclosure data (H-1B, H-1B1, E-3)"],"filings_for_role_12m":0}],"liveness":{"score":90,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.903,"p_room":1,"age_days":0,"expected_fill_days":53,"reasons":["conf:3","velocity","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-10-17T05:46:00Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/mind-robotics-tools-and-plm-engineer","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/mind-robotics-tools-and-plm-engineer.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-18T12:55:24Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":19136,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-19T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":678470},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=678470"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fmind-robotics-tools-and-plm-engineer"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fmind-robotics-tools-and-plm-engineer"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fmind-robotics-tools-and-plm-engineer"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/mind-robotics-tools-and-plm-engineer\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fmind-robotics-tools-and-plm-engineer"}]}
