What are the responsibilities and job description for the Epicor ERP/APS Architect/Lead position at USG, Inc.?
Epicor ERP/APS Architect/Lead
Location: Knoxville, TN
We're hiring an Epicor ERP/APS Architect/Lead to drive scheduling automation for a manufacturing client. This is a hands-on dev role, not just config — you'll be digging into existing Epicor code, some of it undocumented, and building automation that replaces manual scheduling work.
What you'll do:
- Analyze client's current manual Epicor scheduling process — job scheduling logic, machine routing, backlog management — and find where automation fits
- Design, build, and implement Epicor scheduling automation to cut manual effort and tighten planning accuracy
- Read, debug, and extend existing Epicor code, including working through complex legacy logic to fix issues
- Own a development project end-to-end — scoping, planning, delivery on a set timeline
- Work hybrid — partner with the client's internal dev/architect, but also deliver solo when needed
- Collaborate with functional consultants, business users, and project teams through implementation and support
- Provide ongoing production support and improvement recommendations
What you need:
- Strong hands-on Epicor ERP/APS experience, specifically scheduling module configuration and customization
- Proven track record debugging and extending existing Epicor code
- Experience automating manual scheduling in a manufacturing/production environment (job scheduling, machine routing, backlog planning)
- Comfortable owning projects independently, end-to-end
- Bachelor's or Master's in Electrical/Electronics Engineering or Electronics & Instrumentation
