I am embedded in a team of one dozen exceptional Epicor pros. My role focuses on training programs (for both our team and our users), software solution design, data translation and migration, and project planning/reporting. If we were a medical office figuratively speaking, I’d be the general practitioner who knows how to work the x-ray machine and the client record system, and gets along with everybody. First and foremost I aim to be a clock-maker… ensuring what I build today outlives me when I move on to other projects at the company.Our team supports the continuing deployment of Epicor over a dozen or so MRO (maintenance repair overhaul) sites across the world. Our Epicor environment is highly customized to support our MRO processes and the high regulatory and traceability standards the aerospace, military, and energy industries demand.

There and back again. This was a 100% in-person role, and due to sudden family health issues, I decided to switch back to WFH.
