You will lead decisions on fit‑to‑standard vs. customization and drive reduction of legacy technical debt.
Key Responsibilities:
- Lead modernization strategies (e.g., Java → Groovy, batch → event‑driven/API, custom UI → Infor configuration)
- Define upgrade and migration strategies, including version sequencing and compatibility considerations
- Design integration architecture across HRIS, payroll, ERP, identity, and other boundary systems
- Lead full lifecycle delivery: assessment, design, build, testing, cutover, and hypercare
- Convert highly customized on‑prem WFM constructs into scalable cloud solutions
- Oversee data conversion, including historical vs. active data, transformation rules, and reconciliation
- Manage environment strategy for dev/test/prod, tenant management, and refresh cycles
- Ensure delivery discipline across aggressive timelines, blackout periods, and operational constraints
- Lead a technical team of 5–10+ engineers and coordinate with broader technical and functional teams
- Set development standards, code quality expectations, and CI/CD governance
- Provide hands‑on guidance for complex design, integrations, and performance tuning
- Manage dependencies across vendors, system integrators, and client teams
- Serve as the primary technical advisor to client leadership
- Translate technical decisions into business impacts (cost, risk, timeline, maintainability)
- Validate data migration and minimize operational impacts during blackout periods
- Support go‑live readiness and post‑go‑live stabilization
Here's what you need:
- 10+ years of enterprise application architecture experience with deep expertise in Infor WFM
- Proven experience leading Infor WFM cloud migrations or major upgrades
- Strong knowledge of:
- Infor Cloud (multi‑tenant & single‑tenant models)
- WFM modules such as timekeeping, scheduling, absence, and labor forecasting
- Infor extensibility frameworks including Groovy, APIs, and configuration tools
- Experience modernizing highly customized legacy platforms
- Strong integration background across middleware, APIs, file‑based, and event‑driven patterns
- Demonstrated leadership of technical teams (5–10+) in complex, multi‑system programs
- Experience managing cutover activities, blackout windows, and business‑critical operations such as payroll
