## Description

* Serve as the primary IFS subject matter expert and trusted advisor to business and IT leadership.

 * Lead the planning and execution of the IFS 26R1 upgrade while establishing a consistent and sustainable annual upgrade process.
 * Manage the IFS roadmap and backlog through JIRA, prioritizing system enhancements, issue resolution, optimization opportunities, and new capabilities.
 * Serve as Solution Architect for IFS initiatives, translating business requirements across Finance, HR, Field Service Management (FSM), and Projects into scalable technical solutions.

Partner With The Business:

 * Work closely with Finance, Operations, HR, IT, and business leadership to understand challenges and identify opportunities to improve how IFS supports business operations.
 * Evaluate existing workflows, configurations, and business processes to recommend practical system improvements.
 * Translate complex technical concepts into clear business recommendations that support operational efficiency and informed decision-making.
 * Participate in steering committee meetings, sprint reviews, roadmap planning, and vendor governance activities.

 * Drive the Power BI reporting strategy for IFS, including dashboard development, reporting enhancements, and opportunities to replace manual reporting processes.
 * Partner with data and analytics teams to improve reporting accuracy, visibility, and accessibility.
 * Govern and expand Boomi integrations connecting IFS Cloud with other enterprise applications.
 * Ensure configurations, integrations, and enhancements support a scalable, reliable, and maintainable system architecture.

Build Internal Expertise:

 * Partner with IFS Professional Services and external advisors while ensuring knowledge transfer and long-term internal ownership.
