Our defense customer is seeking a specialist who can design and conduct training. The current usage and demand of the organization's Aras Innovator PLM requires additional training content development and support. The Digital Engineering Center (DEC) is seeking a Training Strategist for Digital Engineering (DE) and Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) adoption efforts. This role will develop and execute scalable, user-centered training strategies that drive adoption and effective use of PLM and Digital Engineering methodologies and tools. This role sits at the intersection of technology, engineering processes, and human proficiency—enabling teams to work more efficiently, collaboratively, and digitally. The ideal candidate is a strategic thinker with a deep understanding of PLM/DE tool instructional design, and change management. This role will partner closely with DEC team members and program staff to ensure that training not only meets skill development needs but also accelerates the organization's digital transformation goals.
