• Serve as the primary liaison with third-party software providers to plan and monitor integration and onboarding projects.
• Consult with third-party software providers to enhance their tools in line with Home’s EDI interface specifications.
• Conduct data analysis on point-of-sale extracts to fulfill requests from Dealers, software providers, or department leadership.
• Develop complex ad-hoc queries using Discoverer to generate custom file builds for Dealers.
• Collaborate with business units and software providers to define interface and conversion requirements for new or significantly updated applications.
• Document interface specifications and business rules for all retail electronic data services.
• Provide guidance to internal teams on point-of-sale system impacts related to changes or enhancements in retail data services.

We’re looking for :

• A diploma in Computer Systems Management, Database Management, Networking, or Data Communications.
• Three to five years of experience in systems integration, technical support, or data analysis, ideally within a retail or point-of-sale environment.
• Strong problem-solving skills with the ability to relate current challenges to past solutions.
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to build strong relationships with stakeholders and third-party partners.
• In-depth knowledge of retail business practices and POS applications used in the Hardlines and LBM industry.
• Familiarity with Home Hardware’s internal systems, processes, and retail programs is a strong asset.
• Extensive experience providing technical support through a helpdesk or support line, preferably in a senior analyst or escalation role.
• Proficiency with data extract and analysis tools such as Discoverer, Access, Monarch, and Excel.
• Expertise in data communication tools (e.g. FTP, MessageWay).
• Familiarity with Windows operating systems.
