About the Role:
We’re looking for a Financial Systems Analyst who thrives at the intersection of finance, technology, and process optimization.
In this role, you’ll first focus on optimizing a recently launched SaaS system (post-implementation phase), fixing bugs, and streamlining workflows. Over time, you’ll be a key contributor to a new ERP implementation, helping shape processes, ensure data accuracy, and support user adoption.
This is a high-impact, growth-focused role where your contributions will improve how a $150M+ organization operates financially.
What You’ll Do:
- Troubleshoot and resolve post-implementation issues in financial systems.
- Act as the go-to support for finance team members facing system or data problems.
- Ensure integrity and accuracy of financial data between systems.
- Create documentation and SOPs for ongoing support.
- Participate in ERP system selection, design, and configuration.
- Assist with data migration and lead testing efforts (UAT, integration testing).
- Train end-users and support go-live and post-launch optimization.
- Suggest and implement system enhancements and process improvements.
- Administer financial tools like Lawson, Prophix, and LBI.
What We’re Looking For:
- Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, Information Systems, or related.
- 5+ years of experience working with financial systems and implementations.
- Strong understanding of accounting workflows and data reconciliation.
- Experience resolving system bugs and working cross-functionally with IT and Finance.
- Confident communicator with the ability to explain technical issues in business terms.
- Self-starter who can manage multiple projects with minimal supervision.
Bonus Points For:
- Knowledge of SQL, Tableau, Power BI, or other data visualization tools.
- Familiarity with financial reporting platforms (e.g., Cognos, Hyperion).
- Project management certifications (PMP, Agile, Scrum).
- Experience with ERP data migration and post-go-live stabilization.
Why Join CDA?
- Remote-first culture with flexibility and occasional in-person meetings.
- 22 days of PTO plus 13 paid holidays (including winter closure and floating holiday).
- Medical, dental, and vision insurance with FSA and HSA options.
- 401(k) with generous match and contributions.
- Paid parental leave and wellness programs.
- Life, disability, pet, accident, and critical illness insurance options.
- In-house wellness incentives and gym discounts.
