Description

The Best Experience Company

The Product Configuration Business Analyst (Modeler) translates customer design choices into custom window coverings. This role ensures that dealers, end users, and manufacturing systems interact with product information that is clear, validated, and production ready. Working across product management, engineering, IT, and operations, the modeler configures, documents, and maintains electronic product rules that drive ordering accuracy, pricing, and manufacturability.

The ideal candidate is detail-oriented, logically minded, and experienced with product-based rules, conditional logic, and structured data. They should enjoy collaborating with business teams, solving ambiguity, and turning product knowledge into clean, reliable configuration logic.

Key Responsibilities

Product Modeling & Configuration

Build and maintain product configuration models using internal tools (e.g., Magic Tool, Frontier/FRN platforms, PCM workbench).
Translate business and engineering requirements into rules, validations, option logic, segment structures, and dynamic behavior.
Configure model options, families, select tables, matrices, color lists, and dependent attributes for new and existing products.
Maintain dynamic SKU or single‑SKU logic depending on product strategy.

Cross‑Functional Coordination

Partner closely with product managers, engineers, and internal customers to document requirements and ensure accurate model behavior.
Support manufacturing, purchasing, and customer service by ensuring configuration outputs match operational needs and production flows.
Participate in product introduction planning and model setup for new launches (such as Roman shades, awnings, power shades, etc.).

Data & Rule Quality Assurance

Conduct testing to ensure correct rule execution, error handling, and compatibility logic.
Troubleshoot issues in production ordering or manufacturing systems related to configuration defects.
Validate configuration lists, matrices, retrieval tables, BOM‑related logic, and display behavior for end‑users.

Documentation & Standards

Create and maintain documentation for configuration rules, logic flows, product behavior, and change logs.
Follow established naming conventions, configuration standards, and modeling processes as outlined in internal modeling guides (e.g., MagicToolTaskNotes).
Contribute to process improvements and best practices for configuration modeling across the organization.
