  Define architecture standards, governance, documentation, and best practices across the platform
  Conduct code reviews, mentor developers, and manage dev sandbox production deployments
  Partner with Finance, Supply Chain, IT, and business stakeholders to deliver scalable technical solutions
  Drive application performance, monitoring, security, platform upgrades, and disaster recovery readiness
  Evaluate and recommend QuickBase, Power Apps, or custom solutions based on business needs

• 6+ years of QuickBase development experience, with at least 2 years in a senior or lead capacity
• Deep expertise in QuickBase formulas, relationships, roles & permissions, Pipelines, and reporting
• Hands-on experience with QuickBase RESTful and XML APIs, including authentication and rate-limit handling
• Proven ability to build code pages with HTML, JavaScript, and client-side API calls
• Experience integrating QuickBase with enterprise systems (SAP, Boomi, Power Automate, RPA, or similar)
• Strong data modelling skills and the judgment to know when to normalize vs. de-normalize
• Track record of leading delivery on applications with hundreds of users and 100K+ records
• Excellent written and verbal communication; comfortable presenting to senior business and IT leaders

Preferred Experience:

• QuickBase certifications (App Builder, Pipelines, Solution Consultant)
• Experience with adjacent platforms: Power Automate, Blue Prism, UiPath, Boomi
• Background in finance, supply chain, trade promotion, or CPG business processes
• Familiarity with SAP modules (AR, vendor master, OData/BAPI) and ERP integration patterns
• Exposure to agentic AI, ML classification, or document-grounded automation workflows
• Experience in regulated environments (SOX, GDPR, internal audit requirements)
