Redwood Finance Automation Solution Designer, Netherlands

Overview

An established organization is automating its finance operations using Redwood Finance Automation. This project covers the record-to-report cycle, including period-end close, account reconciliation, journal processing, and downstream reporting, integrated with the organization’s ERP.

Responsibilities

• Own solution design for Redwood Finance Automation.
• Partner with finance process owners to understand how the close runs today.
• Determine what to automate and in what order.
• Produce a solution design that the engineering team can build.
• Maintain ownership of the design through build, testing, and go-live.
• Make decisions based on whether designed outcomes meet real-world requirements.
• Conduct current-state analysis of record-to-report processes with controllers and finance operations leads.
• Document the target automation design across close, reconciliation, journals, and intercompany.
• Decide what functionality can use standard Redwood capabilities versus where extensions are justified.
• Design integrations with SAP S/4HANA or ECC and other source systems.

• Guide engineers during build and review delivered outputs against the design.
• Define test strategy and acceptance criteria with finance users.
• Create a roadmap for subsequent waves of automation after initial processes go live.

• Experience running workshops with finance users and converting feedback into a buildable, testable design.
• Ability to work with senior finance stakeholders and hold design authority when challenged.

Preferred Qualifications

• Hands-on build experience on Redwood to understand what the design requires from engineers.
