YETI is hiring a PLM Product Owner in Austin, TX to lead the PLM functional roadmap and act as the product-facing representative for the PLM ecosystem. In this role, you will connect business needs to scalable PLM solutions across the product lifecycle, while standardizing processes and strengthening governance around engineering data.

Working onsite, you will serve as the domain voice for PLM platforms, coordinate alignment across engineering, business stakeholders, and IT, and ensure the processes and configurations that support real engineering work remain clear, consistent, and continuously improving.

What you’ll do

Act as the functional product owner and domain representative for PLM platforms such as Teamcenter and Centric
Serve as the primary liaison between engineering, business stakeholders, and IT teams
Facilitate workshops and working sessions to drive alignment, clarify requirements, and support decisions

Recommend scalable, supportable PLM solutions aligned to enterprise architecture
Lead and continuously improve PLM processes, including:
- Engineering Change Management (ECR/ECN)
- Document management and lifecycle control
- CAD structures, EBOM, and downstream BOM alignment
- Product data governance and classification
Establish and promote PLM governance standards to address gaps in adoption and consistency
Drive process harmonization across multi-region engineering teams
Identify inefficiencies and lead initiatives to improve data quality, traceability, and process clarity
Support integration and alignment between CAD tools (SolidWorks) and PLM systems
Define and enforce standards for:
- CAD file structures and dependencies
- Revision and version control
- Metadata and attribute management
Partner with engineering teams to resolve challenges related to data inconsistency, poor structure or usability, and lack of standardization
Ensure PLM design supports real-world engineering workflows
Define and document PLM functional requirements for integrations with the architecture organization, including:
- SAP (material master, BOM, and change processes)

- Other upstream/downstream systems
Act as the PLM voice in integration design discussions and partner with integration architects and development teams to represent PLM requirements
Validate solution alignment with PLM processes and data structures
Support testing and validation of integrations to ensure data integrity and process continuity, including functional testing and coordination with QA and IT teams
Assist with troubleshooting, root cause analysis, and issue resolution
Drive increased user adoption of PLM tools and standardized processes
Develop and support training materials, process documentation, and user guidance/best practices
Serve as a trusted advisor to business users on PLM capabilities
Lead continuous improvement initiatives focused on adoption, data quality, and process efficiency
Primarily focus on functional/system configuration (workflows and attributes), not custom development or platform engineering
Own workflow setup and optimization, attribute and data model configuration, and functional testing support
