• Strategic Automation: Partner closely with Finance and People Operations to automate complex workflows and eliminate manual data entry, reducing operational risk

• Tooling Leadership: Lead the selection, implementation, and management of iPaaS tools (e.g., Workato, Tray.io, MuleSoft) to standardize how we connect global SaaS applications

• Standardize Data: Define and document enterprise data standards and integration protocols to ensure a consistent source of truth for all business-critical KPIs

• Optimize Performance: Proactively identify and resolve complex system bottlenecks, ensuring that our finance teams can generate accurate reports and forecasts with zero downtime

• Mentor & Lead: Serve as the subject matter expert for enterprise architecture, mentoring junior IT and systems staff on scalability and best practices

• 7+ years of experience in business systems engineering, enterprise architecture, or a related integration-heavy role in a fast-paced environment

• Deep technical expertise with Oracle NetSuite and Workday APIs, including experience managing complex data migrations or system overhauls

• Hands-on experience with multi-dimensional planning tools like Pigment, Anaplan, or Adaptive Insights

• Proficiency in at least one major iPaaS platform (e.g., Workato, Tray.io, Boomi) and advanced scripting skills (e.g., Python, JavaScript, or SQL) for custom integration logic

• Strong understanding of financial concepts (e.g., GL, procure-to-pay, order-to-cash) and HR lifecycles

• Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to design architectures that balance long-term scalability with immediate business needs

• Experience in a high-growth startup environment preparing for public company readiness (SOX compliance)

• Familiarity with Salesforce (CRM) integrations and the broader lead-to-revenue ecosystem
