Job Description

A Snapshot of Your Day

Every day as the PLM Implementation (Teamcenter)Service Project Manager at Siemens Energy is an opportunity to shape how the Service organization manages product information and works across the product lifecycle.

You will lead the Service workstream through adoption of the current Teamcenter and the subsequent transition to newest version of Teamcenter, connecting Service stakeholders with PLM functional, technical, migration and change teams.

You’ll begin each day by aligning priorities, dependencies, risks and readiness with Service process owners, subject matter experts and project teams.

Working with a cross-functional team, you’ll lead activities that turn real Service use cases into structured requirements, future processes, test scenarios and migration needs, ensuring the deployed solution is validated, usable and adopted by the business.

• Testing and Validation: Develop Service-specific scenarios, coordinate functional testing and UAT, manage defects and retesting, and secure business validation and sign-off.
• Migration Readiness: Support data profiling, mapping, cleansing, trial migrations, reconciliation and business validation for both versions of Teamcenter..
• Adoption and Change: Engage SMEs and key users; coordinate demonstrations, communications, training inputs and readiness actions with OCM resources.

• Proven Experience: At least 10 years of experience in project or program management, PLM implementation, engineering transformation or complex industrial digital transformation, preferably within Service or aftermarket environments.
• PLM Expertise: Demonstrated delivery experience with Teamcenter or a comparable enterprise PLM platform, including product structures and BOMs, parts, documents, CAD, configuration, lifecycle and engineering and service change processes.
• Requirements and Process: Experience translating business needs into requirements, process definitions, test scenarios and acceptance criteria; strong workshop facilitation, process mapping, prioritization and traceability skills.
• Testing and Validation: Hands-on experience coordinating functional testing, end-to-end scenarios, UAT, defect resolution, retesting and business acceptance.
• Data Migration: Experience supporting data profiling, mapping, cleansing, migration trials, reconciliation, validation and data-quality issue management.
• Project Management Expertise: Strong knowledge of waterfall, agile or hybrid delivery, with the ability to manage integrated plans, RAID, dependencies, resources, executive reporting and quality gates.
• Stakeholder and Change Leadership: Ability to align Service, business, IT, architecture, data, OCM and external delivery teams across multiple functions or locations, while supporting business readiness, key-user engagement, demonstrations and training inputs.
• Tools and Working Style: Proficient in Microsoft Excel, PowerPoint and project planning/reporting tools. Hands-on, outcome-focused and comfortable working directly in PLM environments with real business data.
