Opportunity Overview:

We’re seeking a technically skilled and process-oriented Sr. Analyst to serve as the Global Process Owner (GPO) for Teradyne’s ERP and cloud-based planning tools within Corporate FP&A. As Teradyne embarks on a significant ERP and planning system migration, this role is critical to ensuring a successful go-live, a clean stabilization period, and a future state where automation and system capability replace manual, Excel-based workflows across the FP&A function.

Reporting to the Manager, Corporate FP&A, you will own system administration and configuration, govern data quality and integrity, bridge business requirements to IT, and lead UAT through go-live sign-off. In steady state, your mandate evolves into continuous improvement, advanced scenario architecture, and driving AI and automation enablement across FP&A workflows. This is a high-impact, cross-functional role at the center of Teradyne’s Finance transformation.

Key Responsibilities

• Serve as system administrator and configuration owner for Teradyne’s cloud-based FP&A planning tool, maintaining system integrity across all planning cycles.
• Manage forecast workflows, scenario architecture, and assumption tables — including merit, fringe, tax, and G&A allocation percentages — ensuring accuracy and version control across the planning cycle.
• Bridge business requirements to IT; own UAT test scripts, release testing, and go-live sign-off for the ERP and planning tool migration.
• Govern data quality across FP&A systems: own Essbase/ERP load reconciliations, audit trails, and data integrity controls to ensure a single source of truth.
• Train and support all FP&A users on planning tool functionality; maintain access permissions and user governance.
• Post-migration: drive continuous improvement initiatives, automate manual Excel-based tasks, and support advanced scenario builds across the Corporate FP&A and G&A teams.
• Maintain SOX control documentation for planning tool access and data integrity, ensuring audit-ready records at all times.
• Partner cross-functionally with IT, Corporate FP&A, and G&A teams to streamline financial workflows and advance the automation roadmap.
