Role Summary

We are seeking a Software Engineer specializing in Coupa to design, build, integrate, and support procurement applications that enable efficient sourcing, purchasing, invoicing, and supplier management.

Key Responsibilities

Coupa Application Engineering & Delivery

  • Configure and enhance Coupa modules (e.g., requisitions/POs, invoicing, supplier management, catalogs, approvals, receiving) to meet evolving business needs.


  • Translate business requirements into solution designs, technical specifications, and configuration/integration work items.


  • Implement and maintain approval workflows, accounting rules, tax/VAT handling (as applicable), tolerances, and controls aligned to policy and audit needs.


  • Drive continuous improvement through standardization, reuse of patterns, and automation where possible.


Integrations & Data Engineering

  • Build and support integrations between Coupa and enterprise systems such as ERP (SAP/Oracle/NetSuite), HRIS, SSO/IdP, supplier networks, tax engines, and reporting platforms.


  • Develop and maintain API-based and file-based integrations (inbound/outbound), including transformation/mapping, validation, retries, and error handling.


  • Ensure data quality and governance for key objects (suppliers, users, cost centers, GL accounts, items/services, contracts, POs, invoices).


Reliability, Operations & Support

  • Own production support for Coupa-related services: triage incidents, perform root cause analysis, implement preventative fixes, and maintain runbooks.


  • Monitor integration health and platform jobs, manage releases and regression testing, and coordinate vendor/customer support cases as needed.


  • Enforce SDLC best practices: version control, peer review, test coverage, change management, and documentation.


Security, Compliance & Controls

  • Implement secure authentication/authorization patterns (SSO, role-based access) and follow least-privilege principles.


  • Support audits (SOX or equivalent) by maintaining evidence, controls documentation, and traceability for changes and approvals.


  • Partner with Security and Compliance to address risk findings and maintain privacy and data protection standards.


Collaboration & Stakeholder Management

  • Act as a technical partner to Procurement and AP teams-understand pain points, propose solutions, and communicate trade-offs clearly.


  • Coordinate with cross-functional engineering teams (data, platform, ERP, HRIS) to deliver end-to-end outcomes.


Required Skills (Technical)

  • Hands-on experience implementing and supporting Coupa in a production environment (configuration and/or technical integration).


  • Strong integration engineering skills: REST/SOAP APIs, SFTP/file interfaces, JSON/XML/CSV, ETL concepts, and data mapping.


  • Proficiency in at least one general-purpose language or scripting environment (e.g., Java, Python, JavaScript/TypeScript) used for middleware, automation, or integration services.


  • Experience with common integration platforms/tools (any of): MuleSoft, Boomi, Workato, Informatica, Azure Integration Services, AWS integration patterns, or equivalent.


  • Solid understanding of relational data concepts and querying (e.g., SQL) and comfort troubleshooting data issues end-to-end.


  • Familiarity with CI/CD, environments, and release processes (e.g., Git-based workflows, automated testing, deployment pipelines).


Required Skills (Domain)

  • Strong understanding of Procure-to-Pay (P2P) business processes: requisitioning, approvals, purchasing, receiving, invoicing, and payment handoffs.


  • Knowledge of supplier onboarding, catalogs (hosted/punchout), and invoice matching concepts (2-way/3-way match) is strongly preferred.


  • Ability to design solutions with auditability, controls, and segregation-of-duties in mind.


Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Engineering, or equivalent practical experience.


  • 3+ years in software engineering, business systems engineering, or integration engineering roles.


  • 1+ years direct Coupa experience (implementation, administration/configuration, integrations, or technical ownership).


  • Experience working with Finance/AP and Procurement stakeholders in an enterprise environment.


Preferred Qualifications

  • Coupa implementation project experience (end-to-end), including cutover and hypercare.


  • Experience integrating Coupa with a major ERP (SAP/Oracle/NetSuite) and enterprise IAM (Okta/Azure AD/Ping).


  • Familiarity with reporting/analytics approaches for procurement (data warehouses, BI tools).


  • Coupa certifications (if applicable) or equivalent procurement application certifications.


  • Establish or improve operational practices: monitoring, alerting, runbooks, release checklist, and integration error handling standards.


Working Style & Expectations

  • Comfortable working in agile or iterative delivery models with clearly defined outcomes.
