JOB DESCRIPTION

You will play a key role in developing and implementing the next generation of our content management infrastructure, which allows our content engineers to convert product information from documents provided by vendors of sophisticated electronic equipment into Netformx structured databases using industry leading tools, including ETL tools, schema and data comparison/merge, reporting and analytics, and SQL and .Net (C#) scripting.

You’ll work closely with various vendors and manufacturers to ensure the manufacturer’s products are understood and correctly represented in the Netformx Knowledge Base.    This means revamping our internal and off-the-shelf tools, communicating with customers and collaborating cross-functionally with Marketing, Sales, and R&D stakeholders using your strong project management skills.

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science.
