• Hands‑on experience supporting Microsoft Dynamics GP or comparable ERP systems, with a strong understanding of system integrations and business workflows
• Advanced knowledge of SQL Server, including writing queries, building database objects, and troubleshooting performance issues
• Experience supporting warehouse management systems (WMS) such as HighJump or similar platforms within manufacturing or distribution environments
• Working knowledge of EDI processes, including diagnosing and resolving transaction failures
• Strong understanding of IT systems, infrastructure, and how applications interact across enterprise environments
