We are looking for an experienced Oracle Finance Techno-Functional Consultant with a strong Finance background and hands-on experience in 23 end-to-end Oracle ERP implementations.

The ideal candidate should have a good understanding of Finance business processes combined with strong technical capabilities in Oracle technologies. The resource will work closely with Finance stakeholders, functional consultants, technical teams, and integration teams to translate business requirements into scalable Oracle solutions.

Experience with Oracle e Business Suite / Oracle Financials is preferred.

• Understand Finance business requirements and translate them into Oracle system solutions.
• Work closely with Finance teams covering areas such as:
• General Ledger (GL)
• Accounts Payable (AP)
• Accounts Receivable (AR)
• Fixed Assets (FA)
• Cash Management (CM)
• Tax
• Intercompany Accounting
• Participate in requirement gathering, fit-gap analysis, solution design, configuration, testing, deployment, and post-go-live support.
• Understand financial accounting concepts including journal processing, period close, reconciliations, taxation, and financial reporting.
• Support SIT, UAT, cutover, go-live, and stabilization activities.
• Assist users in identifying process improvements and opportunities to leverage standard Oracle functionality.

Technical

• Design and develop Oracle Finance-related reports, interfaces, conversions, and extensions.
• Strong working knowledge of:
• SQL and PL/SQL
• Oracle BI Publisher
• OTBI
• FBDI and spreadsheet-based data loaders
• REST/SOAP APIs and web services
• Oracle integration concepts
• Develop and troubleshoot inbound and outbound interfaces between Oracle and external applications.
• Support data migration, transformation, validation, reconciliation, and loading activities.
• Troubleshoot functional and technical issues and perform root-cause analysis.
• Prepare technical specifications, solution documents, mapping documents, test cases, and deployment documentation.
• Work with middleware/integration teams where Oracle Integration Cloud (OIC) or similar integration platforms are used.

Implementation Experience

The candidate should have participated in at least 2-3 end-to-end Oracle ERP implementations, with hands-on involvement across multiple phases such as:

1. Requirement gathering and discovery
2. Fit-gap analysis
3. Solution design
4. Configuration/development
5. Data migration
6. Integration development
7. SIT/UAT support
8. Cutover and go-live
9. Hypercare/post-production support

Preference will be given to candidates who have independently owned Finance-related workstreams, integrations, reports, or data migration activities.

Required Skills

• Strong Oracle Finance functional knowledge.
• Good understanding of accounting and Finance processes.
• Hands-on technical experience with Oracle ERP technologies.
• Strong SQL/PLSQL skills.
• Experience with BI Publisher and OTBI reporting.
• Experience in integrations and data migration.
• Experience with Oracle APIs and web services.
• Ability to analyze business requirements and convert them into functional and technical specifications.

• A Finance qualification or strong academic/professional Finance background is preferred.
• MBA Finance or equivalent qualification would be an added advantage.

Ideal Candidate Profile

We are looking for someone who is not purely technical and not purely functional. The candidate should be comfortable discussing accounting requirements with Finance teams and then working with technical teams to translate those requirements into reports, integrations, conversions, APIs, and system solutions.

A strong candidate should be able to take ownership of a Finance requirement from business discussion through solution design, development coordination, testing, deployment, and production support.
