What Youll Do :

NetSuite Architecture & Governance :

- Define and enforce NetSuite standards : configuration patterns, customizations, naming conventions, roles/permissions, environments, bundle upgrades, and change management.

- Drive platform simplification : reduce technical debt, limit unnecessary customization, and increase maintainability.

- Improve integration reliability and observability across connected systems.

Deployment Excellence (CI/CD) :

- Implement and mature CI/CD for NetSuite script deployments (e.g., SuiteScript/SDF), including source control, branching strategy, automated checks, and environment promotion.

- Establish release processes that reduce risk and increase delivery speed.

Backup/Restore & Operational Resilience :

- Own backup/restore tooling strategy, validation, and runbooks.

- Ensure recovery processes are tested and operationally ready.

Leadership & Enablement :

- Mentor NetSuite admins/developers and set reusable patterns.

- Lead technical design reviews and provide clear documentation.

Required Qualifications :

- 10+ years of progressive NetSuite experience with architect-level ownership of platform design and governance.

- Deep experience with NetSuite MRP in a manufacturing/supply chain environment.

- Strong experience with NSAW (analytics enablement, modeling, KPI governance).

- Proven experience integrating NetSuite via Celigo (or comparable iPaaS) with enterprise-grade reliability patterns.

- Hands-on experience with SuiteScript and NetSuite extensibility (workflows, scripts, integrations, SuiteCloud tooling).

- Demonstrated success driving best practices to standardize and optimize NetSuite across teams.

- Experience with backup/restore applications and implementing restore testing and runbooks.

- Experience designing/implementing CI/CD for NetSuite script deployment (SDF preferred).

Nice to Have :

- NetSuite certifications (Administrator, SuiteFoundation, ERP Consultant, SuiteCloud Developer).

- Experience operating in controlled change management environments (approvals, environment separation, audit readiness).

- Experience with multi-subsidiary / multi-country implementations.

- Experience supporting integrations across 3PL/WMS, eCommerce, EDI, and adjacent finance/operations/manufacturing systems (e.g., OMS, billing/tax, TMS, MES, planning tools).
