# Epicor ERP/APS Architect/Lead

- **Company:** Usg Inc.
- **Location:** Knoxville, TN, United States
- **Experience:** Expert
- **Contract:** Permanent contract

## About the Role

* Strong hands-on Epicor ERP/APS experience, specifically scheduling module configuration and customization
 * Proven track record debugging and extending existing Epicor code
 * Experience automating manual scheduling in a manufacturing/production environment (job scheduling, machine routing, backlog planning)
 * Comfortable owning projects independently, end-to-end
 * Bachelor's or Master's in Electrical/Electronics Engineering or Electronics & Instrumentation

## Description

We're hiring an Epicor ERP/APS Architect/Lead to drive scheduling automation for a manufacturing client. This is a hands-on dev role, not just config - you'll be digging into existing Epicor code, some of it undocumented, and building automation that replaces manual scheduling work.

What you'll do:

 * Analyze client's current manual Epicor scheduling process - job scheduling logic, machine routing, backlog management - and find where automation fits
 * Design, build, and implement Epicor scheduling automation to cut manual effort and tighten planning accuracy
 * Read, debug, and extend existing Epicor code, including working through complex legacy logic to fix issues
 * Own a development project end-to-end - scoping, planning, delivery on a set timeline
 * Work hybrid - partner with the client's internal dev/architect, but also deliver solo when needed
 * Collaborate with functional consultants, business users, and project teams through implementation and support
 * Provide ongoing production support and improvement recommendations
