Senior Application Analyst — FICO & JVA Finance & Accounting Technology | Denver, CO (Hybrid/Remote Considered) | Full-Time
About Our Client
Our client is a dynamic, values-driven energy company specializing in upstream unconventional oil and gas investments and production. Founded with a focus on visionary strategy, efficient execution, and high-performing teams, the company operates with a lean, agile structure across its U.S. operations, including a back-office hub in Denver, CO. They serve institutional investors and operate across the full upstream value chain — from exploration through production — and are currently undergoing a significant SAP S/4HANA enterprise transformation in partnership with a Big 4 consulting firm. Their culture emphasizes integrity, accountability, and long-term sustainable value creation.
Job Description
This is a high-impact, techno-functional role sitting at the intersection of SAP technology and upstream oil and gas business operations. As the Senior Application Analyst for FICO and JVA, you will be the primary internal expert driving SAP S/4HANA configuration and support for Finance, Controlling, and Joint Venture Accounting — serving as the critical link between the company's back-office business teams and its IT/implementation partners.
You'll play a hands-on role in an active SAP S/4HANA implementation (Phase Zero underway, go-live targeted April 2027), working daily with stakeholders in accounting, finance, legal, and HR to gather requirements, translate them into functional specs, configure solutions, and ensure the system supports real operational needs. The team runs lean by design — this role demands someone who is equally comfortable in a config session as they are facilitating a business requirements workshop.
This position reports into back-office technology leadership and will collaborate cross-functionally with EY implementation consultants, internal business units, and external AMS support partners. The right candidate is a self-directed professional with deep SAP FICO/JVA expertise, upstream energy experience, and the business acumen to operate as a trusted advisor to non-technical stakeholders.
Duties & Responsibilities
Bachelor's degree in Information Systems, Business, Engineering, Accounting, or a related field required.
Pay & Benefits Summary
If you're a seasoned SAP techno-functional professional with upstream energy experience and a drive to own meaningful work — we want to hear from you. Apply today and take the next step in your career with a company that values expertise, accountability, and results.
