PLM CI/CD Architect

Position would require the candidate to be a W2 employee of Donatech. US Citizenship Required.

Client has multiple Teamcenter environments across business units with varying versions, customizations, integrations, workflows, and configurations. Deployment activities are currently manual, time-consuming, and dependent on specialized knowledge, resulting in inconsistent deployments, longer release cycles, and increased operational risk.

The purpose of this role is to engage a consultant to establish a standardized PLM CI/CD framework that automates the build, validation, testing, and deployment of Teamcenter customizations and configuration packages while supporting environment-specific variations through configurable deployment parameters.

The scope of this initiative is limited to automating the lifecycle of Teamcenter code and configuration changes. Teamcenter version consolidation, enterprise-wide environment standardization, and large-scale upgrade transformation activities are outside the scope of this engagement.

The primary objective is to implement a standardized Build → Test → Deploy framework capable of supporting Teamcenter customizations, patches, and configuration deployments across multiple environments.

Key objectives include:

• Establish a Build Once, Deploy Anywhere deployment model for supported Teamcenter artifacts.
• Automate package build, validation, testing, and deployment activities.
• Implement security controls throughout the CI/CD lifecycle, including secure credential management, artifact integrity validation, automated security scanning, and vulnerability detection.
• Establish a centralized artifact management strategy that standardizes artifact versioning, storage, retention, promotion, and traceability across environments.
• Reduce deployment effort, manual intervention, and deployment-related errors.
• Improve deployment traceability, auditability, and governance.
• Support controlled promotion across Development, QA, UAT, and Production environments.
• Enable automated rollback and recovery for supported deployment artifacts.

Target deployment lifecycle:

Source Control → Build & Package → Security & Vulnerability Scanning → Automated Validation → Automated Testing → Deployment → Post-Deployment Verification → UAT Approval → Production Release
