• Conduct system testing and validation procedures.
• Document code and development process for future references.
• Ensure compliance with industry standards, security requirements, and development best practices.

Environment & Support

• Maintain DEV and UAT virtual machine environments in our Azure tenant, keeping systems current with code and refreshed with production data as needed.
• Troubleshoot and resolve technical issues to ensure system reliability.
• Participate in rotating Helpdesk schedule, assisting users with computer and system issues.
• Perform occasional off‑hours system administration tasks (e.g., maintenance windows, updates).

Education and Work Experience Requirements:

• Bachelor’s degree (BS or BA) in Computer Science, Information Technology, or a related field.
• Experience in a manufacturing or distribution environment, ideally with exposure to ERP systems such as Microsoft Dynamics 365 (D365).
• Working knowledge of Microsoft Dynamics 365 (D365) - extracting, mapping, and reconciling data.
• Proficiency with version control (e.g., Git) and disciplined, documented development practices.

Preferred Skills:

• Microsoft Office tools (Word, Excel, PPT, Teams, Outlook).
• X++, SQL, Visual Studio, DoCentric, Azure, Power Apps.
• Experience with job scheduling/orchestration and monitoring/alerting (e.g., Azure Data Factory, Logic Apps, or similar).
• Experience with reporting/BI or automation tools (e.g., Power BI, Power Automate, SSIS, or similar).
• Comfortable creating dashboards for data visualization and reporting.
• Experience working in a multi‑system supply chain, inventory, or allocation environment.
