CAD Application Engineer – PTC Creo (Enterprise Ownership)

CAD Application Engineer – PTC Creo (Enterprise Ownership)

ConMet is seeking a senior, hands‑on Creo expert to serve as the enterprise owner of PTC Creo within a multi‑discipline engineering organization.

This is not a people‑management role and not an IT or PLM administrator position.

It is a high‑trust, high‑autonomy technical leadership role for someone who has spent years inside Creo, supporting engineers, defining standards, and ensuring CAD is used correctly and consistently across the business.

If you are the person others go to when Creo gets difficult — this role is for you.

What You’ll Do


* Own PTC Creo usage and best practices across the engineering organization


* Define and maintain CAD standards and modeling conventions


* Provide hands‑on user support for complex modeling, assemblies, and drawings


* Train, coach, and mentor engineers to improve CAD quality and efficiency


* Partner with engineering leadership to improve design consistency and reuse


* Collaborate with PLM teams to ensure Creo works effectively within Windchill workflows


* Act as the final authority on Creo methods, configuration, and usage guidance

What You Bring


* 8+ years of hands‑on experience using PTC Creo in a production engineering environment


* Proven experience in CAD administration, standards development, and user support


* Strong background in training and mentoring engineers


* Deep understanding of design intent, assemblies, drawings, and configurable models


* Working knowledge of Windchill from a CAD‑author perspective



* Experience in manufacturing‑focused design environments
(machined parts, castings, production drawings)

Nice to Have


* Exposure to multi‑CAD environments (NX, CATIA, SolidWorks)


* Experience supporting enterprise or multi‑site engineering teams


* Background working with or for a PTC partner / VAR

Why This Role Is Different


* Senior technical authority without people management


* Real ownership — not a support queue


* Ability to define how CAD actually works across the company


* Long‑term role, not a steppingstone

This is an onsite (not hybrid or remote) office job based at ConMet's corporate headquarters in Vancouver, Washington.   Non-local candidates must be open to relocation (relocation assistance available).

Note: Employer will not sponsor visas for position.  Applicants must be currently authorized to work in the US on a full-time basis.
