Position Summary

The Oracle Fusion Functional Lead is a lead role responsible for hands-on configuration, design, and go-live readiness of Oracle Fusion Financials as part of a spin-off ERP implementation. This role is GL-anchored but spans the full Oracle Financials footprint, owning the foundational financial architecture while providing functional coverage and oversight across AP, AR, Fixed Assets, and OTC workstreams.

The Oracle Fusion Functional Lead works closely with Finance leadership and business stakeholders to gather and synthesize requirements into functional design decisions, engaging the right people at the right time to ensure the configured solution is technically sound and audit-ready from Day 1.

Subledger Accounting (SLA) & Cross-Module Coordination

Design and govern SLA rules across AP, AR, Fixed Assets, and integrated sources, defining accounting derivation logic for all transaction types

Provide functional coverage across AP, AR, FA, and OTC workstreams — configuring, reviewing, and validating module setups and raising the right questions with business stakeholders

Serve as the connective layer between subledger workstreams and GL, ensuring consistent accounting treatment and clean subledger-to-GL reconciliation

Define GL data structures and integration requirements to OneStream or equivalent consolidation platform

Act as Core Financials SME during post-go-live hypercare

Deliver end-user training and complete as-built documentation

Required Qualifications

Bachelor's degree in computer science, Information Systems, or related field

3–5 years of experience in ERP development, with 2+ years in Oracle Fusion Cloud

2-3 full-cycle Oracle Fusion Cloud ERP implementations spanning GL and at least two other Financials modules (AP, AR, FA, or OTC)
