The Opportunity
The PLM Engineer will be responsible for bringing Distribution Transformer product data into PTC Windchill, enabling full Configure-to-Order (CTO) capability. This role focuses on translating configured data from the Sales Configurator into accurate Engineering/Product BOMs within PLM, ensuring correct metadata, relationships, and Super BOM rule logic are applied.
How You'll Make An Impact
- Define and document BOM relationship rules, constraints, dependencies, and option logic. Perform onboarding, structuring, and validation of Distribution Transformer product data into Windchill.
- Maintain EBOM structures, lifecycle states, and revision control. Ensure alignment of PLM data with Configure-to-Order process requirements.
- Document, maintain, and refine Super BOM structures in Windchill. Ensure existing Super BOM rules correctly represent engineering logic and CTO options.
- Maintain all required metadata, attributes, and configuration parameters in PLM. Use configured selections from the Sales Configurator to generate the correct product BOM in Windchill.
- Ensure configured BOMs include correct components, variants, ratings, and metadata. Validate that created BOMs matches expected engineering and sales configuration rules.
- Ensure synchronization between Sales configuration logic and PLM structures. Ensure proper change management and PLM governance is followed.
- Collaborate with Engineering, Sales, Product Management, and IT teams for data alignment. Provide PLM training and support to Engineering users when needed.
- Validate accuracy of configured BOMs generated in Windchill. Troubleshoot mapping issues, rule conflicts, and BOM inconsistencies.
- Responsible to ensure compliance with applicable external and internal regulations, procedures, and guidelines.
- Living Hitachi Energy's core values of safety and integrity, which means taking responsibility for your own actions while caring for your colleagues and the business.
Your Background
- Bachelor's degree in mechanical, Electrical, or related Engineering discipline. 2–5 years of experience in PLM Engineering, Product Configuration, or Product Data Management.
- Hands-on experience with PTC Windchill (product structures, BOMs, metadata, change management). Knowledge of Configure-to-Order (CTO) processes and variant configuration.
- Experience working with Sales Configurators such as E-config or similar CPQ tools. Understanding of Super BOMs, rules-based configuration, and data mapping.
- Experience with transformer or electrical equipment products is an added advantage. Strong analytical and logical reasoning abilities.
- Detail-oriented with strong ownership and accountability. Ability to collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams.
- Proficiency in both spoken & written English language is required.
