• Provide post-go-live support, troubleshooting, user guidance, documentation, release testing, and continuous improvement recommendations.

• Bachelor’s degree in business/finance/accounting, computer-science or related field required.
• 5+ years hands-on experience administering NetSuite in a business environment.
