$27 - $34 per hour

Sterling Engineering Inc.

Job Description

Job Description

Mechanical Engineer – Product Validation / PLM

Location: Bolingbrook, IL – Hybrid Opportunity
Hire Type: Contract-to-Hire
Pay: $27–$34/hour, depending on experience
New Graduates Encouraged to Apply

Sterling Engineering is seeking two Mechanical Engineers / Product Validation Analysts to support a manufacturing systems and product data initiative. This is an excellent opportunity for an engineer who enjoys problem-solving, troubleshooting, product data, and manufacturing systems.

This position is less focused on traditional mechanical design and more focused on validating engineering data, troubleshooting BOM and system issues, and ensuring accurate product information between PLM and ERP systems. Candidates ranging from new graduates to experienced professionals will be considered.

What You'll Do

  • Validate engineering and manufacturing Bills of Materials (EBOM/MBOM)
  • Review part structures, revisions, metadata, and release status
  • Compare product information between Windchill and ERP systems
  • Identify and resolve BOM mismatches, missing components, and revision issues
  • Troubleshoot product-data and system-integration errors
  • Monitor transactions between PLM and ERP systems
  • Investigate failed transactions and support reprocessing
  • Perform data validation, auditing, and cleansing
  • Troubleshoot user-reported data and system issues
  • Support PLM/ERP implementation and go-live stabilization activities
  • Track issues, backlog, success/failure rates, and resolution performance
  • Document recurring problems and recommend process improvements
  • Work with Engineering, Manufacturing, IT, PLM, and ERP teams to resolve issues

What We're Looking For

  • Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, Industrial Engineering, or related field
  • New graduates will be considered
  • Understanding of BOMs, engineering drawings, revisions, and product structures
  • Strong analytical and troubleshooting skills
  • Comfortable reviewing and working with large amounts of technical data
  • Strong Excel skills
  • Understanding of manufacturing and product lifecycle processes
  • Strong attention to detail and problem-solving ability

Experience with any of the following is a plus: PTC Windchill, PLM/PDM systems, JD Edwards, Oracle Integration Cloud, Creo, EBOM/MBOM structures, master data management, ERP/PLM implementations, data migration, or hypercare/go-live support.

This is a great opportunity for someone looking to build experience at the intersection of engineering, manufacturing, product data, PLM, and ERP systems.

Qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, age, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability, protected veteran status, or genetic information.
