• Build and test reports, data loads, and workflow changes, and document the results.
• Plan and run user acceptance testing for new features and releases.
• Help move data and processes from older systems to newer platforms.
• Write and maintain process documents, how-to guides, and training material.

What You Need

• Basic understanding of how business processes work, such as finance, HR, or supply chain.
• Willingness to learn new tools quickly and work with a team.
