About the role

Business Systems Engineer  Vulcan Elements is manufacturing American rare-earth permanent magnets for a secure, resilient future. With a focus on national security and economic resiliency, we serve critical industries such as defense, aerospace, and automotive, powering a high-technology future. Vulcan Elements is building a team of ambitious professionals committed to Mission Focus, Technical Excellence, and Transparency.   As the Business Systems Engineer, you will own Vulcan’s enterprise software stack — translating business requirements into working integrations, building connections between systems, and making data accessible and useful to the teams that depend on it. Proactive and curious, you will develop a deep understanding of how each part of the business operates, then ensure that the systems you build simplify that work and surface the data needed to improve it. You will work across a broad technical surface, from ERP workflows and API integrations to vendor management and cross-functional problem solving, with a constant eye toward building something reliable enough to grow on. You will help establish the practices and standards that the team builds on as Vulcan scales.   Responsibilities  <ul> <li data-leveltext="•" data-font="" data-listid="2"
