Job Description

Step4 is looking for an experienced Net Suite Developer to take ownership of our ongoing Net Suite development, integrations, and automation - including leading how we bring AI into and around our ERP.

/n

This is a hands-on technical role. You'll work directly with the leadership team to scope, build, and maintain customisations, and you'll be the person who turns "we need this to work better" into a working solution - not just a recommendation.

/n

Step4 supplies furniture, educational resources, and equipment to preschools and early learning centres across Australia. Net Suite is our core ERP, running our sales, marketing, inventory, projects, and finance operations.

/n

Reporting

/n

Reports to the CEO. Works closely with our internal Net Suite/product resource on scoping and handoff of technical work.

/n

Key Responsibilities

/n

/n

- Design, build, and maintain Suite Script customisations (User Event, Scheduled, Client, Map/Reduce, RESTlet scripts)

/n

- Build and maintain Suite Flow workflows for approvals, order processing, and business logic

/n

- Develop and maintain custom records, custom fields, forms, and subtabs (Suite Builder)

/n

- Build and maintain integrations between Net Suite and third-party systems (APIs, webhooks, middleware)

/n

- Own Suite Cloud Development Framework (SDF) deployments - version control, bundles, sandbox-to-production release process

/n

- Build and maintain saved searches, KPI portlets, and reporting tools

/n

- Create Suitelets and portlets as required, for internal tools, dashboards, and custom user interfaces

/n

- Optimise and speed up Net Suite - identify and fix slow searches, scripts, workflows, and page loads

/n





- Lead the design and rollout of AI-driven automation within and around Net Suite (e.g. connecting Net Suite to AI APIs, automating manual processes, building internal tools)

/n

- Troubleshoot and resolve Net Suite performance, data, and scripting issues

/n

- Document technical builds clearly enough for non-technical staff to understand and maintain long-term

/n

- Provide input on technical feasibility and effort when new projects are scoped

/n/n

Net Suite (minimum 4 years' hands-on development experience):

/n

/n

- Suite Script 2.x (and working knowledge of 1.0 for legacy scripts) - User Event, Scheduled, Client, Map/Reduce, RESTlet script types

/n

- Suite Flow - building multi-step workflows with conditions, approvals, and actions

/n

- Suite Builder - custom records, custom fields, custom forms, sublists/subtabs

/n

- Suite Talk / REST API - building and maintaining integrations with external systems

/n

- Suite Cloud Development Framework (SDF) - deployment and release management between sandbox and production

/n

- Saved searches and Net Suite reporting tools, including performance optimisation of complex searches

/n

- Debugging and fixing existing scripts and workflows built by others

/n

- Experience with at least one other programming language or platform (e.g. Python, PHP, or similar)

/n





- REST API integration experience outside of Net Suite (connecting systems, working with webhooks, authentication, JSON)

/n

- Practical experience using AI tools/APIs in a development context (e.g. building automations with AI APIs, using AI coding assistants, integrating LLMs into workflows) - this isn't about knowing AI exists, it's about having actually built something with it

/n

- Comfortable working independently from a brief, without needing detailed technical specs handed to you

/n/n

Highly Regarded (Not Essential)

/n

/n

- Experience with automation/integration platforms (Zapier, Make, or similar)

/n

- Experience in a small-to-mid size business where you're the sole or primary developer, not part of a large dev team

/n

- Exposure to inventory, supply chain, or project-based business models

/n

- Experience with Share Point / Microsoft 365 integrations

/n/n

What Success Looks Like in This Role

/n

/n

- Net Suite customisations are built to a standard where they don't break with routine use, and can be picked up and understood by someone else if needed

/n

- Manual, repetitive processes get identified and automated - with AI where it makes sense, without it where it doesn't

/n

- The business has a genuine internal technical resource for Net Suite, rather than relying on ad-hoc external help

/n

- Leadership can bring you a business problem, not just a technical spec, and trust you to work out the right solution

/n/n

Hours: 2-3 days per week (adaptable on which days, negotiable on structure)

/n

Location: in-office

/n

Type: Part-Time / Casual / Contract (To Be Confirmed)
