Senior PLM Consultant ( German Speaking)

Location: Friedrichshafen, Germany

Remote with Occasional travel to client site at Germany

Duration : 6 – 12 months (extendable)

Key Responsibilities:

PLM Project Leadership:
Lead end-to-end PLM implementation and upgrade projects – from initial assessment and requirements gathering through solution design, configuration, and go-live. Serve as the primary
point of contact for clients
, managing project scope, timelines, and deliverables.
Business Process Consulting:
Work closely with client stakeholders (engineering, R&D, manufacturing, IT, etc.) to
analyse current product development processes
(e.g. BOM management, change control, CAD data management) and translate business requirements into effective PLM solutions. Provide strategic advice on PLM best practices and process improvements.
Solution Architecture & Design:
Define client-specific PLM solution architectures, either at the application or technical level as needed. Develop
solution concepts and technical designs
that leverage out-of-the-box PLM functionality, minimizing customizations. Estimate effort and resources for proposed solutions and obtain client buy-in through presentations and workshops.
System Implementation & Integration:
Oversee the
configuration and customization
of PLM software (Windchill, Teamcenter, or other platforms) to meet client requirements. Guide technical teams in setting up PLM modules (item/BOM management, change workflows, document management, etc.) and integrating the PLM system with adjacent systems like
ERP (e.g. SAP S/4HANA)
, MES, and CAD tools. Ensure robust data flows (e.g., part and BOM synchronization, CAD integrations) and address technical challenges in areas such as Single Sign-On, cloud/SaaS deployment, and system performance.

Preferred Skills & Experience:

Cloud & Digital Transformation:
Experience with
cloud-based PLM solutions or SaaS PLM deployments
. Familiarity with modern PLM trends such as cloud migration strategies, multi-tenant SaaS PLM offerings, and implementing PLM as part of a broader digital thread/digital twin strategy.
Methodologies & Tools:
Proficiency in
Agile project delivery
and tools (e.g., JIRA, Confluence) for managing requirements and development sprints. Certification or formal training in Agile/Scrum or project management (e.g., PMP) is a plus.
Certifications:
Vendor or industry certifications are advantageous – e.g.,
PTC Certified Professional (Windchill)
,
Siemens Teamcenter certifications
, or equivalent in other PLM systems. Any training or certification in SAP PLM integration or CAD systems (e.g., Creo, NX) is beneficial.
Sector Experience:
Prior consulting or implementation experience in relevant industries – e.g., automotive OEM/supplier, aerospace & defense, industrial machinery, high-tech electronics, or medical devices – giving you insight into industry-specific PLM processes and regulatory requirements.
Additional Knowledge:
Familiarity with
adjacent domains
such as ALM (Application Lifecycle Management for software), model-based systems engineering (MBSE), IIoT or Industry 4.0 as they relate to PLM, is a plus.
