Data & ERP Systems Analyst

Overview

Role Overview: We are seeking a technically driven ERP Data and Systems Architect with strong experience in ERP architecture (Net Link or similar), SQL, and Power BI. The core focus of this role is to own and improve the ERP system — its tables, logic, data structures, integrations, and implementation — so that reporting, forecasting, and automation naturally improves. This is not a business SME role; we will teach the business rules. We need someone who can analyze, fix, rebuild, and optimize the ERP environment at a technical level.

3. Technical Issue Investigation & Root-Cause Analysis

• Trace incorrect numbers back to the originating ERP table, field, or process. • Document issues and implement permanent corrective actions. • Provide clear explanations of technical problems and solutions.

4. Data Modeling & SQL Development for ERP Data

• Build SQL views, queries, and data models that extract clean data directly from ERP tables. • Create stable, scalable data pipelines that support analytics, automation, and system integrations. • Validate the accuracy and consistency of all ERP-based datasets.

5. Maintain a Formal ERP & Data Dictionary

• Document fields, tables, definitions, and data flows in the ERP. • Establish consistent definitions for business metrics and reporting logic. • Keep documentation updated as changes are implemented.
