Senior / Staff CAD BOM Quality Engineer

In this role, you will:

Training & Enablement

Own the CATIA training strategy — forecasting class needs against headcount growth and skill gaps, coordinating instructor-led sessions (scheduling, instructors, logistics), and building a roadmap for self-paced and blended learning

Partner with engineering leads to identify skill gaps, tailor curricula by discipline, and track training effectiveness and CAD quality metrics

Create and maintain training documentation, quick-reference guides, and onboarding materials

CAD Standards & Technical Support

Coordinate with internal subject matter experts (SMEs) to ensure consistent modeling methodology and provide day-to-day technical support to CAD users

Define, standardize, and evangelize CAD standards, driving adoption within 3DEXPERIENCE

Tools, Vendors & Systems

Serve as Zoox's SME for CATIA/CAD issues with third-party tools providers (e.g., Dassault Systèmes, Siemens), partnering with them, IT/PLM, and Engineering to investigate, trial, and implement CAD tools and automation

Work with Zoox-internal teams to investigate, select, and develop a Zoox-specific supplier portal

Facilitating CAD Collaboration

Support different modes of 3D data exchange across tools and orgs within Zoox

Enable secure collaboration with external partners — directly within Zoox's 3DEXPERIENCE platform and via file-based exchange — with a focus on "need to know" access that shares only what's necessary for a given project, efficiently and accountably

Team Leadership & Growth

Build and lead a team of CAD quality specialists and trainers as the program scales — including making the hiring case, onboarding, and setting priorities

Qualifications

Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, or related field (or equivalent practical experience); 7+ years hands-on with CATIA V5 and/or 3DEXPERIENCE, including advanced modeling, surfacing, and assembly workflows

Prior experience developing or delivering CAD training programs at scale, with strong communication and facilitation skills to teach technical content to engineers at varying skill levels

Strong understanding of CAD data quality standards, model-based definition, and PLM data management, including experience defining and rolling out CAD standards within 3DEXPERIENCE and driving broad adoption

Experience partnering with IT/PLM teams and third-party vendors to scope and implement CAD tooling and automation (e.g., quality checkers, validation scripts)

Excellent program management skills — forecasting needs, coordinating multiple stakeholders, and managing training calendars and logistics

Experience mentoring, leading, or informally managing others — or a clear readiness to grow into a formal people management role as the function scales

A genuine service mindset and builder's mindset — motivated by making engineers' work easier and comfortable creating processes and programs from the ground up

Bonus Qualifications

Prior people management experience, particularly building a team from scratch — a major plus

Background in instructional design, adult learning, or train-the-trainer/certification models, including experience designing self-paced or e-learning content (e.g., LMS platforms, video-based training, interactive tutorials)

Automotive and/or high-tech industry experience
