What are the responsibilities and job description for the Senior NetSuite Developer position at Armstrong Alternative Brand?
SUMMARY:
The Armstrong Company is looking for a Senior NetSuite Developer who loves building on the platform. You've written and shipped SuiteScript in production, connected NetSuite to the other systems a business runs on, and you're comfortable working through the kind of customizations that take real depth to understand.
This is a builder role. Your time at The Armstrong Company will be spent in code and integrations, not mainly in the point-and-click UI. If creating roles, assigning permissions, and arranging fields is the heart of your NetSuite experience, this likely isn't the right fit — we're looking for someone who reaches for the SuiteScript debugger before they reach for a support ticket.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:
- Design, build, and maintain custom NetSuite solutions using SuiteScript 2.x (User Event, Client, Scheduled, Map/Reduce, Suitelet, and RESTlet scripts).
- Build and own integrations between NetSuite and external systems (e-commerce, CRM, 3PL, payment processors, data warehouses) via SuiteTalk (SOAP/REST), RESTlets, and middleware.
- Develop and optimize saved searches, SuiteAnalytics workbooks, and reports — including tuning the ones that have grown slow over time.
- Use SuiteFlow where it fits, with good judgment about when a workflow is the right tool and when code is.
- Manage customizations as code with the SuiteCloud Development Framework (SDF), source control, and clean promotion across sandbox and production.
- Diagnose and resolve production issues — governance limits, script errors, performance bottlenecks, and integration hiccups.
- Partner with finance, operations, and supply chain teams to turn business needs into solid technical solutions.
- Help raise the bar through code review and sharing good engineering practices across the NetSuite environment.
MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS:
- 5 years working with NetSuite, including 3 years writing SuiteScript** (2.x) in production.
- Hands-on experience across the main script types: User Event, Map/Reduce, Scheduled, Suitelet, Client, and RESTlet.
- A good working understanding of the NetSuite governance model — units, limits, and how to design around them.
- Experience building integrations with SuiteTalk (REST and/or SOAP), RESTlets, and third-party iPaaS/middleware.
- Strong JavaScript fundamentals (ES6 ), and comfort reading and improving code you didn't write
- Familiarity with SDF / SuiteCloud CLI and managing customizations through source control and multiple environment.
- A solid grasp of the NetSuite data model — record types, sublists, transaction relationships, and efficient ways to query them.
- A knack for debugging production problems end to end.
NICE TO HAVES:
- NetSuite certifications (SuiteCloud Developer II, Administrator, ERP Consultant)
- SuiteCommerce / SCA development experience
- Experience with SuiteAnalytics Connect, ODBC/JDBC, or moving NetSuite data into a warehouse
- Background in finance/accounting, supply chain, or order-to-cash workflows
- Experience leading a NetSuite implementation or major version upgrade
- Familiarity with CI/CD for NetSuite deployments
