NetSuite Consultant

Overview

Drive full‑cycle NetSuite deployments across manufacturing operations, ensuring the platform is configured, customized, and optimized to support production workflows, inventory controls, and lot/lock number tracking. This role blends functional leadership with hands‑on technical expertise in SuiteScript, module development, and cross‑system integration. Experience working with Value‑Added Resellers (VARs) and exposure to medical device manufacturing is highly desirable, bringing added strength in compliance, traceability, and regulated operational workflows.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead end‑to‑end NetSuite implementations, including discovery, requirements gathering, solution design, configuration, testing, deployment, and post‑go‑live support.
• Develop and customize NetSuite modules to support manufacturing processes such as BOM management, work orders, routings, WIP tracking, and production scheduling.
• Design and implement lot/lock number tracking and traceability solutions aligned with manufacturing and regulatory requirements.
• Build and maintain customizations using SuiteScript 1.0 and 2.x, including User Event Scripts, Client Scripts, Suitelets, Scheduled Scripts, Map/Reduce, and RESTlets.
• Collaborate with internal teams and external VAR partners to align technical solutions with business requirements and ensure consistent implementation standards.
• Leverage VAR experience to navigate multi‑client environments, anticipate implementation challenges, and apply proven best practices.
• Oversee data migration activities, including mapping, cleansing, validation, and import strategies.
• Develop custom workflows, forms, saved searches, dashboards, and KPIs to support operational visibility and decision‑making.
• Manage integrations between NetSuite and external systems (MES, WMS, CRM, EDI, QMS).
• Provide leadership, training, and guidance to internal teams and end users to ensure successful adoption and long‑term system sustainability.
• Establish documentation standards, governance processes, and continuous improvement roadmaps for NetSuite enhancements.

• Strong proficiency in SuiteScript 1.0 and 2.x, including custom script development and troubleshooting.
• Deep understanding of manufacturing operations, including discrete or process manufacturing, inventory management, and production workflows.
• Proven experience implementing or optimizing lot/lock number tracking, serialized inventory, and traceability solutions.
• Experience developing or customizing NetSuite modules such as Manufacturing, Inventory, Advanced BOM, WMS, or Quality Management.
• Demonstrated experience working with Value‑Added Resellers (VARs), including coordinating partner resources and managing shared deliverables.
• Strong knowledge of NetSuite’s data model, governance limits, and SuiteCloud development best practices.
• Experience with integrations using REST/SOAP APIs, middleware platforms, or custom RESTlets.
• Excellent communication, project management, and stakeholder‑engagement skills.

Preferred Qualifications

• NetSuite certifications (ERP Consultant, SuiteFoundation, SuiteCloud Developer).
• Experience with SuiteCloud Development Framework (SDF).
• Background in manufacturing (pharma, biotech, aerospace, medical devices).
• Familiarity with MES, QMS, or WMS systems and their integration with NetSuite.
