RESPONSIBILITIES:
Kforce has a client that is seeking a Centric PLM Product Developer in Broomfield, CO.
Overview:
The Product Developer will support the Product and Merchandising organization in optimizing and enhancing the Centric PLM platform, which underpins product lifecycle and merchandising workflows.
This role is highly execution-focused, aimed at reducing backlog and driving hands-on development within Centric, enabling product leaders to focus on strategic ownership. The developer will play a key role in navigating and improving a complex PLM environment while supporting broader platform scalability and integration efforts.
Key Responsibilities:
* Own and execute against the Centric PLM backlog, delivering enhancements and fixes
* Provide hands-on development, configuration, and optimization within Centric PLM
* Design and support REST API integrations between PLM and downstream systems
* Develop and maintain scripts for automation, data loads, and workflow enhancements
* Work with XML/JSON data structures for integrations and data exchange
* Partner with product owners to translate business requirements into technical solutions
* Improve system usability, workflows, and overall platform performance
* Support analysts by taking on technical execution workstreams
* Help bring structure and clarity to a complex and evolving PLM environment
* Identify opportunities to streamline processes and reduce platform complexity
REQUIREMENTS:
* Hands-on experience with Centric PLM
* Strong background in Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) systems
* Experience with REST API development and integration
* Proficiency in at least one programming language (JavaScript, Python, or Java)
* Strong working knowledge of SQL and data modeling concepts
* Experience working with XML and JSON for system integrations
* Experience building scripts for automation and data processing
* Ability to operate independently in fast-paced, ambiguous environments
* Strong problem-solving skills with a -figure it out- mindset
* Effective communication and collaboration skills across technical and business teams
What Will Set You Up for Success:
* Ability to quickly navigate and optimize complex systems (Centric described as a -maze-)
* Strong execution mindset with a focus on delivering tangible outcomes
* Comfort working in a lean team where you take ownership of development work
* Pragmatic approach-focused on solutions over process-heavy delivery models
* Alignment with team collaboration needs (time zone proximity, responsiveness)
Preferred Qualifications:
* Experience integrating PLM systems with ERP, PIM, DAM, Adobe Illustrator, or eCommerce platforms
* Experience with other PLM platforms such as Flex PLM
* Experience working in product-driven environments alongside product managers and analysts
