Financial Systems Administrator

Metropolis Metropolis · Vertical AI · New York, NY +1 · Finance and Accounting

This role is for a Financial Systems Administrator responsible for managing Oracle Cloud EPM (EPBCS) and integrating non-financial KPIs into financial forecasting models. It involves data integration, SQL/Python scripting, and collaboration with Data Engineering teams. While AI tools are mentioned as a plus, the core function is financial systems administration and data integration, not AI/ML model development.

  1. Oversee the end-to-end administration, configuration, and continuous optimization of the Oracle Cloud EPM suite (EPBCS)
  2. Design, build, and troubleshoot Essbase ASO/BSO cubes to support large-scale operational scenario planning
  3. Act as the primary technical translator between Finance and centralized Data/IT teams; partner with Data Engineering to define technical requirements, ensuring that data models in our data warehouse (e.g., Snowflake) are properly structured for seamless EPM ingestion
  4. Collaborate with data teams to ingest high-volume non-financial KPIs (e.g., transaction counts, location churn) into EPM planning cubes
  5. Troubleshoot integration workflows and perform root-cause analysis on data discrepancies using SQL and Python
