    Role: Senior Product Owner: Finance (General Ledger) Data & Integrations
    Location: Cary, NC (hybrid; onsite several days per week)
    Fulltime


    Required
    • 8+ years in ERP Finance, Finance Systems, finance data, business analysis, functional consulting, or product ownership, including time as the accountable Product Owner or functional lead on a significant workstream.
    • Hands-on ability to read and write SQL: joins, aggregation, filtering, and set comparison, sufficient to understand an existing extract, profile data, and reconcile two result sets independently. This is a working requirement, not a nice-to-have.
    • Demonstrated experience analyzing existing extracts or interfaces to derive requirements and then specifying their replacement on a new platform.
    • Deep General Ledger functional knowledge, including consolidations, intercompany and eliminations, reporting currency and currency translation, ledgers, allocations, close, and financial reporting.
    • Strong GL functional knowledge in at least one major ERP platform: PeopleSoft, Workday, SAP, Oracle, or Microsoft Dynamics.
    • Understanding of sub-ledger accounting and how sub-ledger activity is accounted and posted to the GL, ideally through Accounting Center or a comparable accounting engine.
    • Familiarity with EPM (Enterprise Performance Management) applications as consumers of GL data, and what they require for consolidation, planning, and management reporting.
    • Demonstrated experience on ERP implementation, modernization, migration, or finance transformation programs, ideally including at least one full lifecycle through go-live.
    • Proven ability to elicit requirements and produce user stories, acceptance criteria, source-to-target mappings, process and data documentation, and UAT scenarios.
    • Comfort operating across both worlds: credible with CFO-organization stakeholders and equally effective with data engineers on mappings, transformations, and defects.
    • Experience in Agile delivery using Jira, Azure DevOps, or a comparable backlog-management tool.
    • Excellent communication, stakeholder management, facilitation, and problem-solving skills; able to drive decisions in ambiguity.
    • Ability to work a hybrid schedule from Cary, NC.
    Preferred
    • Insurance or financial services experience, with exposure to statutory reporting, insurance accounting (STAT/GAAP), or data from actuarial, investment, reinsurance, or risk functions.
    • Hands-on experience with PeopleSoft General Ledger, including its table structures, and the ability to read SQR.
    • Experience with Workday Financial Management, Workday integration patterns (EIB, Core Connectors, Prism), or FDM design.
    • Experience with finance data migration, data integration, data warehousing, or building certified data products.
    • Familiarity with Azure, Databricks, ADF, ADLS Gen 2, Synapse, Microsoft Fabric, or Snowflake, enough to reason about feasibility and cost with engineers.
    • Experience with specific EPM or consolidation and planning tools such as Oracle Hyperion or EPM Cloud, OneStream, Anaplan, Adaptive, or Workday Adaptive Planning.
    • Product Owner, Agile/Scrum (CSPO, PSPO), ERP Finance, or accounting certification (CPA, CMA) a plus.
