Your work will help build technology that helps surgeons. MPE is a contract designer, developer, and manufacturer of complex electromechanical and robotic-assisted surgical systems for the medical device market.

Behind every one of them is an ERP that has to work. We’re looking for a Business Systems Analyst to make ours work better.

- Build and maintain IFS workflows, interfaces, APIs, and system integrations.
- Create reports, dashboards, and analytics that leaders rely on.
- Lead testing and deployment, and support change control and software validation.
- Define project scope, keep stakeholders informed, and flag risks early.
- Train users, document configurations, and improve SOPs.
- Work with IFS support partners on upgrades and enhancements.
What you bring
- 5+ years in a Business Systems Analyst, ERP Analyst, or similar role in a manufacturing environment.
- Experience designing and supporting complex ERP systems. IFS experience is strongly preferred.
