A hybrid business analyst and developer at a Singapore mattress retailer: roughly half the time is spent meeting business units to map workflows and define requirements, the rest maintaining systems (D365 BC, NetSuite, Shopify) and building small internal apps and integrations on AWS using JS/NodeJS/Python/PHP and SQL.
We are looking for a versatile Business System Analyst cum Software Developer who enjoys solving business puzzles. In this role, you won't just be writing code; you will be a consultant to our internal teams. You will sit down with users, understand their manual 'pain points,' design a streamlined digital workflow, and then build the small-scale applications or integrations on AWS to make it happen.
This role is about 'Efficiency First.' You will be tasked with looking at our showrooms and warehouses to find where data gets stuck. You'll design and build the digital bridges that ensure when a customer buys a bed, our warehouse, delivery team, and finance systems all talk to each other.

Prototyping: Rapidly build 'proof of concept' tools to test ideas with users before full-scale deployment.
