Job description

I'm working with a global technology organisation on an exciting opportunity for an experienced Teamcenter Platform Architect.

This is a highly specialised technical role working onsite within the technology environment of one of the world's most recognised technology companies.

You'll be responsible for supporting and evolving a complex Teamcenter PLM platform operating at significant global scale, with responsibility spanning platform engineering, deployment, automation, performance, reliability and infrastructure.

This is far more than a traditional Teamcenter administration role. We're looking for someone who can take genuine ownership of the platform, solve complex technical challenges and help evolve how Teamcenter is deployed, automated and operated.

What you'll be doing

• Own and support Teamcenter PLM environments across Development, SIT, UAT and Production
• Lead Teamcenter installation, configuration and upgrades, including version 2506
• Use Teamcenter Deployment Center for automated installations, environment setup and upgrades
• Manage BMIDE deployments, data model updates and promote changes across environments
• Support core Teamcenter components including Dispatcher, FMS, Pool Manager and administrative data
• Support Teamcenter Reporting & Analytics (TCRA), including reporting setup, data sources, deployment and troubleshooting
• Monitor overall platform health and ensure high availability, stability and scalability

DevOps, Automation & Deployment

• Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines for Teamcenter deployments
• Automate environment setup and infrastructure provisioning using Ansible, Pulumi and Infrastructure as Code
• Work with Docker and containerised Teamcenter components and integrations
• Support automated build, deployment and release processes
• Work closely with development teams to improve code integration and delivery workflows
• Identify opportunities to improve automation, deployment efficiency and platform reliability

Performance, Search & Scalability

• Investigate and resolve complex performance issues across application, database and infrastructure layers
• Diagnose issues including database locks, memory constraints and slow queries
• Manage and tune Solr indexing, including re-indexing and search performance
• Support indexing and search configuration for high-performance global search functionality
• Optimise TCRA reporting performance across large datasets and complex queries
• Work with DBAs on database tuning, including SGA sizing, indexing and query optimisation
• Ensure the platform can scale reliably under different workloads
• Administer and troubleshoot Linux-based environments
• Monitor and manage CPU, memory, disk and system processes
• Review logs and diagnose issues across services and infrastructure layers
• Manage patching, security updates and system hardening
• Ensure environments meet relevant security and compliance standards
• Work across application, database and infrastructure layers to diagnose and resolve complex issues

Technical Leadership & Problem Solving

• Perform root cause analysis (RCA) for critical issues raised by internal and business users
• Lead the investigation of complex technical problems through to resolution
• Collaborate with engineering, development, infrastructure and database teams
• Contribute to technical decisions around platform architecture, scalability and reliability
• Help continuously improve the way the Teamcenter platform is operated and delivered

What we're looking for

• Strong hands-on experience with Siemens Teamcenter
• Strong knowledge of Teamcenter Deployment Center and BMIDE
• Experience with FMS, Dispatcher and Pool Manager
• Experience with Solr and enterprise search
• Experience with Teamcenter Reporting & Analytics
• Strong Linux administration and troubleshooting skills
• Experience with databases and performance tuning
• Strong CI/CD and DevOps experience
• Experience with Infrastructure as Code and automation, ideally including Ansible and Pulumi
• Experience with Docker and containerised environments
• Strong understanding of high availability, scalability and platform performance
• Excellent troubleshooting and root cause analysis skills
• The ability to collaborate effectively across engineering, development, infrastructure and database teams

Why this opportunity?

This is an opportunity to work on a highly complex, globally scaled technology environment supporting the product lifecycle of one of the world's best-known technology businesses.

You'll work alongside experienced technical teams and have the opportunity to influence how a critical enterprise PLM platform is deployed, automated, maintained and evolved.

$150,000 - $250,000, depending on experience.

• Medical, prescription, dental and vision insurance
