Job Description

A large manufacturing company based in San Diego is looking for someone who would be expected to know, or learn as needed, enough about Product Lifecycle Management (PLM)-related roles/processes/products AND about PLM and CAD tools to partner with business to properly solve problems and make improvements. These tools primarily include PTC's Windchill PDMLink application, using PTC's Creo Parametric and Creo View with an increasing focus on rapidly evolving AI, Cloud, and other newer technologies.

This typically does not include day-to-day production support (but often will), but rather deals with relationships, communications, data, methods/processes, conventions (promoting commonality!), improvements, etc.

It requires an ability to troubleshoot tough issues, write a clear problem statement, understand and write requirements, and create optimal conceptual/solution designs which (as needed) can be used by developers in technical design & coding.

It also may require using/learning project management, data management, and Windchill/Creo software user skills. Computer science or deep technical knowledge is useful but not required. An analyst's objective should always be solving problems and creating solutions while avoiding/minimizing complexity and/or customizations

We are a company committed to creating diverse and inclusive environments where people can bring their full, authentic selves to work every day. We are an equal opportunity/affirmative action employer that believes everyone matters. Qualified candidates will receive consideration for employment regardless of their race, color, ethnicity, religion, sex (including pregnancy), sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, marital status, national origin, ancestry, genetic factors, age, disability, protected veteran status, military or uniformed service member status, or any other status or characteristic protected by applicable laws, regulations, and ordinances.
