Our platform integrates seamlessly with ERP, accounting, and procurement systems, enabling organizations to work smarter and scale efficiently.\nAbout the Role\nThe Data Services & EDI Specialist is the technical engine behind the accuracy, reliability, and connectivity of the Ottimate platform for our clients. This role owns two closely related bodies of work: the system-level configuration that makes Ottimate run correctly for each client (dimension mapping, payment profiles, item validation, data hygiene), and the electronic data interchange (EDI) connections that let invoices flow automatically between client and vendor systems without manual entry.\nThis role sits within the SaaS Operations organization and operates at the boundary between technical configuration, integration engineering, and client operations. You are detail-obsessed, process-oriented, and comfortable working across multiple client environments and multiple vendor and partner connections simultaneously. Your work is what allows the rest of the Services team to focus on customer relationships and delivery - because the systems and the data underneath are solid.\nAs Ottimate's Concierge offering grows, clients engage Ottimate to manage AP processing on their behalf, and our EDI Expansion Program scales across the client base, this role will take on increasing operational responsibility in both areas. You will be one of the team members closest to that work, and your input will shape how both models scale.\nKey Responsibilities\nSystem configuration & technical setup\nAdminister backend dimensions (GL codes, departments, projects) to ensure invoice data is coded accurately according to each client's business logic\nExecute setup and ongoing maintenance of electronic payment profiles (ACH and other electronic methods), ensuring banking data is validated, secure, and current\nPerform Item Validation mapping - technical mapping of line-item data so that items are recognized and processed without error\nEDI connections & partner onboarding\nSet up, test, and maintain EDI connections (e.g., ANSI X12 or custom flat-file) between Ottimate, clients, and their vendor partners\nMap data fields between systems so invoices and credits (e.g., 810 transaction sets) translate correctly from one format to another\nMonitor EDI transmissions daily to catch failed or rejected transactions and resolve them quickly\nTroubleshoot data mismatches (wrong units, SKU errors, missing fields) that cause transactions to fail, using SQL or other data-querying tools to trace issues through the pipeline\nOnboard new vendors onto EDI, including running test transactions before go-live\nWork with vendors, customers, and internal teams (engineering, technical support, data ops) to resolve integration issues\nDocument EDI specifications, mapping guides, and vendor partner requirements\nData operations & maintenance\nPerform bulk data uploads, scrubbing, and normalization - including ongoing maintenance of vendor lists and charts of accounts sourced from client ERPs\nConduct proactive statement reconciliation audits, identifying and resolving gaps between vendor statements and system records\nMaintain data accuracy standards across all active client environments, flagging anomalies and resolving discrepancies before they surface as client issues\nBuild and maintain documentation of each client's configuration and EDI logic, ensuring institutional knowledge lives in the system and not in individual memory\nOttimate Concierge operations\nExecute ongoing AP processing tasks within Ottimate Concierge client environments - serving as the operational resource that keeps these engagements running accurately and on schedule\nIdentify inefficiencies in Concierge workflows and recommend process improvements that reduce manual effort and increase throughput as the client base grows\nPartner with the Strategic Consultant and Director of PS on the operational design of new Concierge engagements - contributing the systems, data, and EDI perspective to scoping and SLA discussions\nAs the Concierge model scales, contribute to a repeatable operational playbook that supports additional clients without proportional headcount increases\nInternal support & collaboration\nServe as the super-user resource for ad hoc technical, configuration, and EDI requests from the Services, Implementation, and Customer Success teams\nPartner with the Solution Architect and Enablement Consultants on complex client configurations that require system-level or EDI input\nContribute technical documentation and configuration guides that reduce the team's reliance on tribal knowledge\nRequirements\nExperience\n3+ years in a data operations, technical implementation, ERP administration, or fintech support role\n2-3 years of hands-on EDI connection experience, or equivalent experience in a similar integration-focused role\nFamiliarity with EDI standards (ANSI X12) and transaction sets (e.g., 810 invoice); comfort working with flat files as an EDI alternative\nHands-on experience with data mapping, bulk data management, or system configuration in a SaaS or financial operations environment\nExperience working across multiple client environments and vendor connections simultaneously, organized enough to context-switch without losing accuracy\nSQL or data-querying skills sufficient to trace issues through a data pipeline\nSkills & qualities\nPrecision-first mindset - you find errors before they find customers, and accuracy is a personal standard, not just a job requirement\nProcess-oriented - you build repeatable workflows around recurring tasks and document them so others can follow\nStrong analytical, critical-thinking, and troubleshooting skills - a single field error can break a transaction, and you catch it\nComfortable with ambiguity and incomplete information - client data is rarely clean, and you know how to work through it\nAble to manage multiple priorities, projects, and deadlines with minimal supervision\nCollaborative and responsive - the Services team depends on you to turn around configuration and EDI work accurately and on time\nStrong communication skills for coordinating with external partners, vendors, and internal teams\nCurious about how systems connect - you want to understand the full data flow, not just your piece of it\nOttimate is an equal opportunity employer that is committed to diversity and inclusion. We do not discriminate based on race, color, national origin, religion, gender, gender expression, sexual orientation, age, veteran status, disability status, or marital status. If you are excited about the role but do not meet 100% of the qualifications listed above, we encourage you to apply.\nBenefits","description_format":"text","description_chars":6953,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"Mexico","iso":"MX","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Financial AI","Document AI","Accounting & Tax Software"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-01T00:38:39Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":90,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.903,"p_room":1,"age_days":5,"expected_fill_days":42,"reasons":["conf:0","velocity","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-10-05T05:45:15Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/ottimate-data-services-edi-specialist","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/ottimate-data-services-edi-specialist.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-06T02:57:06Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":4441,"day_limit":5000,"remaining_today":559,"minute_limit":60,"resets_at":"2026-10-07T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":6614},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=6614"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fottimate-data-services-edi-specialist"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fottimate-data-services-edi-specialist"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fottimate-data-services-edi-specialist"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/ottimate-data-services-edi-specialist\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fottimate-data-services-edi-specialist"}]}
