• Administer application settings including workflows, security roles, permissions, reference data, document templates, and customer-facing configuration content.

• Partner with architecture and integration teams to define data mappings, interface expectations, exception handling, and end-to-end validation across connected enterprise platforms and order processes.

• Build and execute test scenarios covering unit, functional, integration, regression, and release readiness using realistic business cases.

• Support issue investigation and resolution through defect analysis, retesting, go-live support, production stabilization, and ongoing operational troubleshooting.

• Document configuration standards, support procedures, known issues, escalation steps, and administrative runbooks to improve maintainability and knowledge sharing.

• Deliver training materials, role-based enablement sessions, and knowledge transfer to internal users and designated champions responsible for routine updates and support.

• Provide day-to-day application administration, evaluate enhancement requests, assess release impacts, refine backlog items, and contribute to continuous improvement efforts.

• At least 3 years of recent hands-on experience with Tacton product modeling, CPQ configuration, or platform administration.
• Proven involvement in at least one live Tacton implementation, major enhancement, or production rollout.
• Strong background configuring complex product rules, reusable model components, attributes, constraints, pricing tables, discount structures, and approval logic.
• Ability to lead working sessions with business stakeholders and convert functional discussions into detailed, testable configuration requirements.
• Experience supporting configure-to-order or engineer-to-order products, including testing, troubleshooting, release support, and post-deployment stabilization.
• Solid written and verbal communication skills with the ability to document decisions, train users, and work independently in an Agile environment.
