Archer is an aerospace company based in San Jose, California building an all-electric vertical takeoff and landing aircraft with a mission to advance the benefits of sustainable air mobility. We are designing, manufacturing, and operating an all-electric aircraft that can carry four passengers while producing minimal noise.
Our sights are set high and our problems are hard, and we believe that diversity in the workplace is what makes us smarter, drives better insights, and will ultimately lift us all to success. We are dedicated to cultivating an equitable and inclusive environment that embraces our differences, and supports and celebrates all of our team members.
What you'll do:
As the Configuration Data Engineer, you will combine software development expertise with configuration management practices to safeguard product data integrity, traceability, and compliance. You will design tools, reports, and automations that enable engineering and product teams to make faster, more accurate configuration decisions.
- Develop and maintain tools and reports to monitor bills of materials (BOMs), effectivity assignments, and configuration changes
- Create automated quality checks to validate workflows and ensure compliance with configuration management standards
- Integrate with Teamcenter APIs and background services to access, analyze, and validate engineering data
- Build automation scripts to support NX, CATIA, and other CAD-driven workflows (NX Open, CATIA VB, Check-Mate, NX Check-Mate)
- Support the definition, maintenance, and auditing of BOM structures, unit effectivity, and date-based effectivity for engineering changes
- Develop dashboards and metrics reporting to provide visibility into change requests, change notices, and configuration status accounting
- Collaborate with configuration management, engineering, and IT teams to streamline data flow across systems
- Investigate data anomalies and provide corrective recommendations to maintain design and change integrity
- Partner with project teams to ensure effectivity assignments are properly implemented and reflected in reports
- Contribute to the improvement of enterprise configuration management processes through data-driven insights
- Serve as a technical resource to CM specialists for reporting, automation, and API usage
What You Need
- To be a self starter with a strong desire to learn new technologies
- Ability to translate engineering/CM requirements into automated solutions
- 2+ years of experience developing tools and reports for a Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) tools (e.g., Teamcenter, Windchill, Enovia, 3DX) or equivalent engineering data environments
- Experience with relational databases (SQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle) for reporting and automation
- Ability to interpret engineering drawings, CAD data, and metadata
- Understanding of BOM structures, unit effectivity, and date-based effectivity methods
- Familiarity with engineering change processes, including Change Requests (CRs) and Change Notices (CNs)
- Experience with scripting or automation in CAD/PLM environments (NX Open, CATIA VB, or similar)
- Strong problem-solving skills and ability to analyze complex datasets for process improvements
- Effective written communication skills to document procedures and produce clear reports
- Ability to work in a collaborative environment across engineering, CM, and IT teams
Bonus Qualifications
- Hands-on experience with Siemens Teamcenter APIs or integrations
- Experience with Business Intelligence tools such as Power BI, Sigma, or SAP Hana
- Experience with ITI CADIQ tools and CAD data validation workflows
- Experience with Elysium CAD Translation tools
- Familiarity with NX Check-Mate and automations
- Familiarity with ASME Y14.5 Dimensioning and Tolerancing
- Experience developing Adobe Forms with JavaScript and PDF publishing workflows
- Exposure to aerospace, automotive, or other complex product development environments
- Knowledge of configuration management standards and compliance practices (CMII, EIA-649, etc.)
This role is ideal for engineers who enjoy bridging software development with product lifecycle control. You will directly impact how engineering data is managed, ensuring accuracy, efficiency, and compliance across the enterprise
