ERP Administrator; Epicor: -Prem

The Opportunity

We are partnering with a $500M+ employee-owned manufacturing organization headquartered in Louisville, KY to identify an Epicor Kinetic Administrator.

This is not a basic helpdesk ERP role.

This position serves as the internal technical Epicor owner, supporting a mature 15+ year on-prem Epicor environment. The organization is actively scaling, and this role will play a critical part in ensuring system stability, performance, integrations, and controlled evolution of the platform.

If you have hands-on Epicor on-prem experience and can operate independently in a technical backend capacity, this role offers long-term stability and meaningful growth.

What You’ll Own

• Administer and maintain on-prem Epicor Kinetic environment
• Install hotfixes, patches, and version updates
• Serve as primary point of contact with Epicor support
• Implement vendor-provided data fixes and updates
• Manage user roles, security, and system access
• Support third-party integrations (both Epicor-aligned and external vendors)
• Utilize SQL for querying and reporting (no direct database editing)
• Develop and support BAQs, BPMs, dashboards, and customizations
• Work within Application Studio to support UI/configuration enhancements
• Troubleshoot backend issues across finance, manufacturing, and operations
• Collaborate with internal technical and development resources

What This Role Is NOT

• Not a pure functional ERP trainer role
• Not a cloud-only SaaS environment

We are seeking someone who can contribute immediately and operate with minimal oversight.

Required Experience

• 3+ years administering Epicor (on-prem strongly preferred)
• Experience with Epicor Kinetic architecture
• Familiarity with Application Studio
• Strong understanding of manufacturing ERP environments (MRP, production, inventory, finance modules)
• Experience managing system updates and vendor support tickets
• Working knowledge of SQL for queries and reporting
• Experience supporting third-party ERP integrations

Preferred

• Experience in manufacturing or industrial environments
• Exposure to moderate ERP customizations
• Background in ERP upgrades or long-term system ownership
• Hybrid: 3 days onsite in Louisville, KY
• Must reside in Kentucky or Indiana (relocation assistance considered case-by-case)

Compensation & Long-Term Value

• EBITDA profit-sharing bonus (up to ~10%)
• 100% Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP)
• Stock allocations annually (historically 12–13% of W2 compensation)
• 9 paid holidays
• 401(k) with company match

This is a long-term investment hire. The organization is stable, expanding, and employee-owned — offering both growth opportunity and ownership upside.
