Job description

Business Central Strategy Advisor & Product Architect

Cavallo is seeking a highly skilled Business Central Strategy Advisor & Product Architect to serve as our internal authority on Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, workflow automation, and distribution operations.

This role is central to Cavallo's transformation, guiding customers from SalesPad / GP to Business Central using our flagship products, Mission Control, Profit Scan, and the Profit Max Platform (PMP). This individual will define how Cavallo builds BC-aligned products, shape our workflow and data architecture, and ensure our solutions reinforce best practices across the BC ecosystem. This critical, cross-functional position supports Product, Engineering, Services, Sales, and Partners, providing the deep expertise needed to shape world-class, ERP-integrated experiences for distributors.

The ideal candidate brings deep functional and technical experience in Business Central, distribution workflows, Power Automate, and the broader Microsoft ecosystem, combined with the ability to translate that expertise into product direction, technical recommendations, and data modeling decisions.

Key Responsibilities

Product & Platform Strategy

  • Act as Cavallos internal authority on Business Central capabilities, constraints, extension patterns, and data structures.
  • Shape Mission Controls workflow model, defining how Cavallo solves BC gaps in areas like jobs, warehouse, reservations, automation, and approvals.
  • Influence Profit Scans BC integration by helping align costing, posting groups, and item valuations with our margin analytics engine.
  • Advise Product Leadership on BC trends, competitive offerings, partner practices, and distribution use cases.

Integration, Workflow & Automation Expertise

  • Guide integration patterns for BC, including APIs, OData, events, data mappings, and Power Automate connectivity.
  • Define workflow triggers, automation entry points, approval patterns, and orchestration logic across Mission Control, Business Central, and other systems.
  • Ensure Cavallos system designs align with BCs standards for customizations, extensions, and dataflows.
  • GP BC Migration Leadership

  • Strengthen Cavallos migration framework by defining GP-to-BC workflow transitions and identifying where Mission Control replaces legacy GP functionality.
  • Improve migration playbooks, partner readiness, and delivery templates to ensure consistent, repeatable BC implementations.
  • Cross-Functional Enablement

  • Serve as the primary resource for internal teams needing expert guidance on BC functionality, workflow design, automation opportunities, and ERP constraints.
  • Support Sales and Marketing by educating them on BC workflows and how Cavallos products improve the ERP experience and remove costly custom development.
  • Partner with UX and Engineering on best practices for designing complex, multi-step BC-driven workflows with strong logic and intuitive structures.
  • Customer & Partner Engagement

  • Engage directly with distributors, partners, and BC consultants to gather insights on real-world workflows and validate architectural decisions.
  • Advise on how Cavallos products can fill gaps, replace custom development, and reduce implementation risk across BC environments.
  • Participate in customer discovery, workflow mapping sessions, and complex implementations as the BC subject matter expert.
  • Data Modeling & Cross-ERP Structure

  • Contribute to the Profit Max Platforms (PMP) multi-ERP data model by defining BC mappings that align across other ERPs (Acumatica, NetSuite, GP, etc.).
  • Ensure BC-specific workflows, data structures, and automation logic integrate cleanly with Cavallos margin and operational intelligence frameworks.
  • Requirements

    Experience & Skills

  • Deep functional and technical expertise in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central.
  • Extensive practical experience with distribution, wholesale, or manufacturing workflows.
  • Strong understanding of BC extension models, data structures, posting behaviors, and workflow limitations.
  • Hands-on familiarity with Power Automate or similar workflow automation tools.
  • Strong ability to translate complex ERP workflows into intuitive product experiences and clear technical recommendations.
  • Excellent communication skills with the ability to educate non-experts on ERP concepts clearly and confidently.
  • Nice to Have

  • Experience with multiple mid-market ERPs (GP, NetSuite, Acumatica, SX.e, CSD, or similar).
  • Functional or technical BC certifications.
  • Experience supporting software implementations or designing workflow-driven solutions.
  • Background working with data models, integration patterns, or multi-system automation.
  • What Success Looks Like

  • Mission Control workflows clearly extend BCs capabilities and eliminate the need for most custom development.
  • GP BC migrations accelerate due to strong playbooks, fewer workflow gaps, and reduced implementation variance.
  • Profit Scan surfaces accurate, trusted margin intelligence through correct BC data mapping and costing interpretation.
  • The product roadmap is better aligned with real BC workflows, partner processes, and distributor needs.
  • Customers and partners view Cavallo as the go-to expert for distributor workflows inside Business Central.
  • Why Join Us?

  • Become the cornerstone expert guiding Cavallos BC-aligned product strategy.
  • Influence high-impact decisions across product, engineering, services, and customer success.
  • Work at the intersection of ERP systems, distribution, workflow design, automation, and multi-ERP architecture.
