About The Position

RoboTools Canada is a Vancouver-based importer and distributor of industrial robots serving the Canadian market, partnering exclusively with leading Chinese robotics manufacturers. They provide end-to-end solutions from procurement and logistics to on-site integration and after-sales support for clients across manufacturing, warehousing, and automation sectors. As the company scales rapidly, they are implementing Odoo as their core ERP platform to unify procurement, inventory, trade finance, CRM, and accounting workflows. This role is for an experienced Odoo specialist to own this implementation from configuration through go-live and beyond. This role will be the first internal Odoo expert and will play a key role in building the company’s operational infrastructure from the ground up. This is a hands-on implementation role where you will be responsible for translating RoboTools Canada’s operational requirements into a fully configured, production-ready Odoo environment. You will work directly with leadership to scope, configure, test, and deploy Odoo modules, and will provide training and ongoing support to staff post-launch.

Requirements

• 3+ years of hands-on Odoo implementation experience (Odoo 16 or 17 preferred).
• Demonstrated experience implementing Odoo for import/distribution, wholesale, or supply-chain-intensive businesses.
• Deep expertise in Inventory, Purchase, Sales, and Accounting/Finance modules.
• Proficiency in Python and basic familiarity with the Odoo ORM and QWeb templating for customizations.
• Experience with data migration (Excel/CSV → Odoo) and data integrity validation.
• Strong understanding of accounting fundamentals including multi-currency, landed costs, and payables management.
• Ability to gather and document business requirements and translate them into system configurations.
• Excellent communication skills in English; ability to work independently and drive projects to completion.

Nice To Haves

• Odoo Certified Professional designation (any stream).
• Experience with Canadian tax compliance (GST/HST, PST) within Odoo.
• Familiarity with import/export documentation, customs duties, and landed cost accounting.
• Experience integrating Odoo with RBC or other Canadian banking feeds.
• Background in robotics, industrial equipment, or technical product distribution is a strong asset.
• Project management experience.

Responsibilities

• Lead the full Odoo implementation lifecycle—requirements gathering, module selection, configuration, data migration, UAT, go-live, and post-launch support.
• Configure and customize core modules including Inventory, Purchase, Sales, Accounting/Finance, CRM, and Manufacturing (MRP) to reflect our import-distribution business model.
• Map multi-currency purchase orders, landed cost tracking, and sea freight logistics into Odoo workflows.
• Identify and implement integrations with third-party tools (banking feeds, shipping providers, customs documentation) via Odoo connectors or APIs.
• Extract, clean, and migrate data from existing spreadsheets and legacy systems into Odoo with accuracy and auditability.
• Write or oversee Python/OWL customizations and custom reports where out-of-the-box functionality is insufficient.
• Develop training materials and deliver hands-on training sessions for operations, finance, and sales teams.
• Produce and maintain clear technical and end-user documentation for all configured workflows and customizations.
• Act as the internal Odoo subject-matter expert post-go-live, managing upgrades, troubleshooting issues, and iterating on system improvements.

Benefits

• Competitive salary and benefits package.
• Flexible hybrid working arrangements in the Vancouver area.
• A pivotal, high-ownership role in building the operational backbone of a growing Canadian robotics distributor.
• Direct collaboration with senior leadership—your recommendations will be heard and acted upon.
• Opportunity to grow into a long-term Head of ERP / Systems role as the company scales.
