PTC Solutions Developer

Location: 100% Remote (U.S.) | Position Type: Full-time, Direct W2

About the Role

We are seeking an experienced PTC Solutions Developer to design, develop, and support customizations, integrations, and enhancements on the Windchill PLM platform. In this role, you will work closely with PLM functional consultants and engineering stakeholders to translate manufacturing and product-lifecycle requirements into well-engineered Windchill solutions. The ideal candidate will combine strong hands-on Windchill Java customization experience with practical knowledge of Windchill data models, workflows, and integration patterns.

You will collaborate with cross-functional partners — product, design, engineering, operations, and business stakeholders — to translate ambiguous requirements into well-engineered solutions. The role includes raising the bar through code review, design review, and mentorship of more junior engineers. The successful candidate brings strong engineering discipline, clear communication, and a track record of shipping production-ready work.

Responsibilities

• Design and develop Windchill customizations using the Windchill Java API and PTC-recommended customization patterns
• Build custom listeners, services, and processors that extend Windchill behavior without compromising future upgrade paths
• Develop and configure Windchill workflows, lifecycle templates, and object initialization rules
• Implement custom Info*Engine tasks and adapters for system integration, applying disciplined engineering practices and partnering closely with stakeholders
• Build custom JSP and HTML client-side extensions where required, ensuring outcomes are durable, well-documented, and aligned with team standards
• Design and develop Windchill business reports using report templates and Cognos integration
• Configure and operate Windchill Customizer’s tools, RBINFO files, and OIRs
• Implement migration scripts for legacy PLM data into Windchill, ensuring outcomes are durable and well-documented
• Optimize performance of custom code and database queries, working closely with DBAs
• Conduct fit-gap analyses and translate business requirements into clean technical designs
• Adhere strictly to PTC customization best practices to ease future upgrades
• Provide hypercare and post-go-live support, including issue triage and root-cause analysis
• Maintain comprehensive technical documentation — architecture diagrams, design decisions, configuration references, runbooks, and operational procedures
• Mentor and coach junior and mid-level engineers through code review, design review, pair programming, and structured knowledge sharing

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical discipline
• Five or more years of PTC Windchill development experience
• Strong hands-on experience with the Windchill Java API
• Solid experience with workflows, lifecycle templates, and object initialization rules
• Working knowledge of Info*Engine and Windchill integration patterns
• Hands-on experience with JSP/HTML client customization
• Strong SQL skills and familiarity with the Windchill data model
• Experience with Windchill upgrades and migrations
• Excellent troubleshooting and documentation skills
• Strong communication and stakeholder management skills

Preferred Qualifications

• PTC Windchill certifications
• Experience with Creo, Arbortext, or related PTC products
• Exposure to Windchill RV&S (Integrity) or ThingWorx integration
• Familiarity with CAD data management workflows
