The role covers Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations (D365), Medius AP Automation, Avalara Avatax, QuickBooks Server and Database, and associated integrations and financial portals.

The position supports financial-system administration, integrations, data and reporting, process improvements, system implementations and upgrades, user support and training, security, controls, compliance, and general technical support for Accounting. It works with IT, vendors, and consultants on technical issues and system changes, and supports accounting staff and financial close processes.
