20 Year Windchill Professional (Architect/Business Analyst) Available
Army has put cancelled my contract through my current employer, so I'm looking to move fast on a new Windchill/Thingworx opportunity. I'm not looking to relocate at this time as I'm located north of Philadelphia. I'm open to occasional travel, though I'm not looking to become a road warrior once again. As an experience NetIDEAS (cloud services) Business Analyst, I have experience working remotely in all phases of Windchill.
I have over 19 years experience in Windchill, completing tasks at every level of functionality, from Business Analyst/Solutions Architect to Implementation to Development to Training as both a PTC consultant and as a internal Windchill consultant. As you will see by my profile, I have done installs, technical support, system administration, business administration, data loading, customizations, integrations, migrations, upgrades, Info*Engine, reporting and much more.
I have performed all levels of Consulting, from Solutions Architect, Business Analyst, System Administration, System Configuration, Customer On-boarding, Training, Data Loading, and especially Consultative Selling. As such, I've been the primary customer interface for all levels of customers, from the largest of Multi-nationals, Lockheed Martin, to the U.S. Government (Navy and U.S. Coast Guard), to the smallest mom and pop design shops.
I was in the first consultant training classes for Windchill, was the consultant for one of the first ProjectLink implementations, the first Workgroup Managers (both CAD and ECAD), the first PDMLink implementations by a PTC Partner, and the first implementation of Windchill Cloud Services in AWS for PTC.
I spent 3 years at a Windchill cloud services provider, NetIDEAS, who was acquired by PTC. As member of this team, I was the Business Analyst, being the primary customer contact responsible for understanding all customer requirements, and translating them into configuration specifications.
