Oracle Financials Solution Architect-Finance to Manage (EBS and Fusion)

Tessera Labs

3d • $200,000 - $230,000 • Remote

About The Position

Tessera Labs is hiring an Oracle Financials Solution Architect to lead Finance to Manage across multiple customer engagements in Oracle E-Business Suite and Oracle Fusion Cloud. The role covers General Ledger, Payables, Receivables, Fixed Assets, Cash Management, and the financial close. The architect leads discovery with finance teams, translates legacy finance models into Oracle designs, makes configuration decisions, configures the systems personally, and leads testing through go-live and initial closes. Customers may be moving from a different ERP, so the role requires understanding existing accounting processes and redesigning areas such as the chart of accounts, subledgers, intercompany, and close processes rather than simply migrating them.

The position also has a substantial pre-sales and client-leadership component. The architect leads discovery calls, workshops, demonstrations, estimates, proposal contributions, RFP responses, and statements of work, and communicates solution plans to finance leaders, including CFOs and controllers. The role works alongside Tessera’s AI agents, applying professional judgment to design decisions and feeding learnings and reusable finance assets back into the platform.

The engagement model is approximately 60% delivery across concurrent Oracle Financials engagements, 25% pre-sales and client leadership, and 15% platform enablement and product input. The role works US business hours with customers and distributed delivery teams, and includes travel to customer sites for workshops, pre-sales meetings, and go-lives as needed. It is remote and open to US-based or near-shore candidates in Latin America. US-based candidates are offered full-time permanent employment; near-shore candidates are offered a long-term contract.

• At least three full-lifecycle implementations as a finance lead or solution architect, covering both Oracle E-Business Suite R12.x and Oracle Fusion Cloud Financials, with at least one implementation in each.

Responsibilities

• Lead finance discovery with controllers and accounting, AP, AR, and treasury teams; examine legacy configurations, reports, and close checklists; and distinguish business requirements from habits and workarounds.
• Translate legacy finance models into Oracle designs, including chart of accounts, ledgers, legal entities, business or operating units, and balancing segments.
• Architect accounting design covering Subledger Accounting or Accounting Hub, intercompany, multi-currency, revaluation and translation, tax, and financial reporting.
• Own Finance to Manage fit-gap analysis and recommend whether gaps should be addressed through configuration, process change, extensions, or third-party products.
