ND Defense LLC is an ITAR-registered defense contractor headquartered in Madison Heights, Michigan, with manufacturing operations in West Point, Mississippi. We specialize in tactical wheeled vehicles — MRAPs, MaxxPros, and SOTVs — and are actively expanding into maritime, aerospace, electronics, medical devices, energy, and chemical distribution. With international operations spanning Abu Dhabi, Poland, MENA, and Latin America, we are growing rapidly and building the operational infrastructure to match.
This is a company where your work will be seen, your impact will be measurable, and your ability to grow with the organization is real.
Role Summry
We are looking for an experienced Infor ERP professional to take ownership of our ERP environment — stabilizing the system, closing configuration gaps, driving adoption across departments, and serving as our internal expert and trainer. This is a hands-on technical role with direct organizational impact.
Infor is your primary mission. Over time, as the ERP environment matures, you will also lead the evaluation and deployment of AI-powered automation tools — particularly those that integrate with or extend the Infor platform — helping us operate more efficiently as we scale.
What You Will Do
Primary — Infor ERP Administration & Optimization
Serve as the primary internal administrator for the Infor ERP system, owning configuration, user access, module settings, and system healthConduct a systematic assessment of current Infor utilization across manufacturing, supply chain, finance, and HR; identify gaps between what the system can do and how it is currently usedDrive configuration improvements and build out underutilized modules to better support business operationsDevelop and deliver hands-on training programs for end users across both sites (Madison Heights and West Point); build reference materials, SOPs, and quick-reference guides tailored to each department's workflowsEstablish and maintain data integrity standards — clean master data, consistent item masters, accurate BOMs, and reliable reportingTroubleshoot system issues and coordinate with Infor support when escalation is needed; reduce dependence on external consulting over timeBuild integrations and data flows between Infor and adjacent systems (MES, compliance tools, HR platforms, reporting tools)Maintain system documentation including configuration logs, process maps, and user guidesServe as the point of contact for ERP-related questions, issues, and enhancement requests from across the organizationPartner with department heads to understand operational workflows and translate business needs into ERP solutionsSecondary — AI Systems & Process Automation
As our Infor environment stabilizes, you will take on an expanding role in AI-enabled process automation:
Evaluate AI tools and agentic workflow platforms — particularly those designed to extend or integrate with Infor — for applicability to ND Defense operationsIdentify high-value automation opportunities in finance, supply chain, procurement, HR, and compliance; build a prioritized roadmapPilot and deploy automation solutions in coordination with department stakeholders; measure and report on outcomesStay current on Infor's own AI roadmap (Infor Industry AI Agents, GenAI Assistant, Agentic Orchestrator) and advise leadership on adoption timing and approachBuild internal capability — document automation deployments so the organization understands and can maintain what has been builtWhat We Are Looking For
Required
5 or more years of hands-on Infor LN ERP experience in an administrative, analyst, or implementation roleDemonstrated ability to configure Infor modules, manage user access, maintain data integrity, and support end usersExperience training non-technical users on ERP workflows — patience, clear communication, and the ability to meet people where they areStrong analytical skills; ability to diagnose ERP gaps and propose practical solutionsManufacturing or defense/government contracting industry backgroundAbility to work on-site in Madison Heights, MIStrongly Preferred
Experience with Infor LN implementations or re-implementations — not just steady-state supportFamiliarity with Infor LN’s AI and automation roadmap, including Infor Industry AI Agents or the GenAI AssistantExposure to agentic AI concepts, workflow automation tools, or integration platforms (iPaaS, LangChain, etc.)Experience in a DCAA-compliant or ITAR-regulated environmentPrior work at or with an Infor implementation partnerInfor certification in one or more modulesWho Thrives in This Role
You are someone who gets genuine satisfaction from making a system work the way it should. You understand that ERP success is as much about people and process as it is about configuration. You can walk a shop floor supervisor through a purchasing workflow in the morning and troubleshoot a data mapping issue in the afternoon. You are organized, proactive about documentation, and comfortable working in a fast-moving environment where priorities can shift. You do not wait to be told what to fix — you find it, flag it, and propose a solution.
We are a mid-size company in an active growth phase — which means less bureaucracy, more direct access to decision-makers, and a real opportunity to shape how the organization operates. If you have spent years in large enterprise environments waiting for approvals, this will feel different.
