A configuration mission in Villeurbanne is seeking an external resource to manage internal software systems and streamline product data at a rate of 45.00 € per hour, Free-Work reported. The recruitment effort, handled via Grafton on behalf of a confidential client, centers on a year-long contract running from November 1, 2026, through October 31, 2027.
Inside the Villeurbanne Configuration Assignment
The incoming professional will work 36.5 hours per week entirely on-site in Villeurbanne (postal code 69100). The role targets an external resource to maintain an internal configuration software responsible for generating technical definition deliverables. These outputs include engineering plans, technical datasheets, bills of materials, and manufacturing routings generated directly from raw input data.
Daily responsibilities span multiple operational domains. The contractor will provide direct user support by assisting teams with tool adoption, onboarding new personnel, and correcting parameterization errors. Beyond troubleshooting, the role requires configuring new products within the database in close coordination with development teams to ensure deliverables generate accurately.
Technical Tooling and Engineering Scope
The technical mandate demands hands-on programming of the plan generator using Créo and Imagine from the PTC software suite. Alongside direct tool programming, the position calls for continuous improvement initiatives. The selected candidate will propose and implement user interface enhancements to maximize the daily usability of the configuration platform.
Grafton’s brief establishes several mandatory prerequisites for applicants. Candidates must demonstrate a solid technical background in general mechanical engineering, alongside proven experience in change management within a Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) environment. Practical familiarity with no-code programming or core computer logic is also required, coupled with strong project management capabilities and comfort collaborating across multidisciplinary teams.
Project Parameters and Timeline
While general project management expertise and direct mastery of Créo and Imagine within the PTC suite are listed as valued assets, the structural requirements remain tightly bound to the toolset and schedule. The mission initiates on November 1, 2026, operating on an external contract basis with zero remote work provisions outlined for the 36.5-hour weekly schedule.
