PLM Administrator

LightPath Technologies, Inc. is a leading global provider of precision optics and photonics solutions, serving defense, aerospace, medical, and industrial markets. With decades of expertise and a strong culture of innovation, LightPath designs and manufactures advanced optical components and systems that power some of the world’s most demanding applications. We offer a collaborative, technology-driven environment, opportunities to work on cutting-edge programs, and a comprehensive benefits package that supports our employees’ health, growth, and work-life balance.

As we scale and integrate new capabilities, we’re building out the digital backbone that ties our engineering, quality, and operations data together, and we’re looking for the person who will own it.

As our PLM Administrator, you’ll be the go-to expert for our Product Lifecycle Management system including the part data, EBOMs and change workflows. You won’t be writing the integration code. Our IT team and specialist partners handle the heavy build. You will define how the system works, set the standards, and make sure what gets delivered is right.

What You’ll Do

• Own the configuration, standards, and data model for our PLM system, including the part master, EBOM, document types, lifecycle states, and change workflows.
• Write the requirements and acceptance criteria for integrations and data migrations, then direct and validate the work our IT team and partners deliver.
• Be the first point of contact for every PLM user across Engineering, Quality, Operations, and our supply base.
• Keep the system audit-ready by enforcing the access controls, markings, and audit trails our compliance team defines, and produce the evidence needed for assessments.
• Build the dashboards and KPIs that show how our engineering processes are really performing.
• Find the friction in our workflows and make them better.
