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.
