CAD/PLM Support Engineer (m/w/d) - Berlin, Germany - #2746818

What To Expect
Team: DesignTech Support | Function: Engineering Tools, Support and Training

Tesla is seeking an experienced CAD/PLM Support Engineer to join our Design Technology department in a high-impact support role. You will enable engineers in the Vehicle Engineering team to work at peak efficiency by unblocking CAD-specific issues, addressing inefficient methodologies, and continuously improving our CAD and PLM environment. You will serve as a key enabler, trainer, and liaison, helping Tesla deliver best-in-class vehicles through smarter, faster, and more standardized CAD practices.

What You'll Do

Diagnosing and resolving issues occurring across our CAD/PLM platform (3DEXPERIENCE) as well as related engineering tools

Identify recurring failure modes and feed them into runbooks or training content to reduce re-occurrence of the same issues

Provide regular basic CAD training to new hires in the Vehicle Engineering organization, plus targeted on-demand training as needed

Assist with office hours and create how-to content for common CAD/PLM tasks

Develop CAD methods, methodologies, engineering/CAD templates, and workflows that continuously improve efficiency in Engineering and drive greater standardization in CAD modeling and simulation

Act as the primary link between the Vehicle Engineering organization (reporting issues or improvement ideas) and the development specialists in Design Technology organization

Support and act as expert for Design Technology internal improvement, deprecation or deployment projects

Manage communication with the CAD vendor to resolve issues that cannot be addressed internally

What You'll Bring

At least 5 years of experience as a Mechanical Design Engineer in the automotive or aerospace industry, ideally across multiple design teams

Extensive CAD modeling experience in CATIA/3DEXPERIENCE

Advanced CAD simulation experience in SIMULIA to teach engineers to validate their current design ideas early in the development phase

Hands-on CAD modeling experience across diverse part types, including injection-molded parts, castings, stampings, and sheet metal

Proven experience delivering CAD training to engineers

Experience in creating and using simulations to validate current CAD designs and identify deficiencies early

Experience in other non-modeling specific apps and concepts in the 3DEXPERIENCE platform (e.g., Change and Configuration Management) would be ideal for this role

Experience with other CAD systems esp. SolidWorks is helpful but not required
