At Backcountry, our mission is to connect people to their passions. Our four online stores—Backcountry, Competitive Cyclist, MotoSport and, SteepandCheap—aim to supply our customers with the gear, knowledge, and inspiration necessary to get out there and chase down life’s greatest moments. We do this by providing the biggest and best assortment of premium outdoor products, superior shopping experience, personalized Gearhead expertise, lightning-fast and accurate fulfillment, and inspirational, informative, and community-centered content.
We are looking for an Associate Product Manager to join the ERP and Merchandising Product Team at Backcountry.
The ERP and Merchandising Product Team sits at the heart of Backcountry’s business systems, making it easier for teams across Fulfillment, Accounting, Finance, Buying, Planning, Merchandising, and eCommerce to run and grow the business.
As an Associate Product Manager on this team, you will focus on specific areas in our NetSuite product while gradually taking ownership of a sub-domain and leading small projects with increasing autonomy over time. You will blend internal product management, light NetSuite configuration, and data-driven discovery in close partnership with Accounting, Buying, Planning, and Merch Ops to improve the accuracy, efficiency, and scalability of Backcountry’s core operations.
This role is challenging – above and beyond the day-to-day responsibilities, you’ll have a big role within a fast-paced team.
This position will report into the Senior Product Manager.
Role Summary:
Support the Sr Product Manager on the ERP & Merchandising Applications roadmap, with primary responsibility in NetSuite for procure-to-pay (purchase orders, receipts, and invoices) and a secondary focus on order-to-cash
Act as a key partner to Accounting, Buying, Planning, and Merch Ops, ensuring customizations and workflows in NetSuite support both daily operations and strategic initiatives
Perform light NetSuite configuration, basic analysis, and coordination with an internal engineering squad and other application owners (e.g., WMS, payment gateways) to deliver improvements
What you get to do:
Product discovery and requirements
Run structured intake for NetSuite enhancement requests and issues, with emphasis on purchase orders, receipts, and related inventory and financial impacts
Clarify problem statements with stakeholders, map current workflows, and document desired future state for procure-to-pay and order-to-cash processes
Write user stories, acceptance criteria, and lightweight process maps that engineering can execute against
Delivery and execution
Partner with the ERP and Merchandising engineering team to plan, build, and release changes to NetSuite customizations and configurations
Coordinate and sometimes execute UAT: define test cases, organize business testers, log and track defects, and validate that solutions meet requirements
As proficiency grows, independently run small projects end-to-end with periodic check-ins from the Sr PM
System configuration and data
Create and maintain saved searches, basic workflows, and fields in NetSuite under appropriate governance and controls
Use SQL and BI tools to pull and analyze data, quantify problem size and opportunity value, and monitor the impact of released changes
Stakeholder partnership and support
Serve as a go-to contact for Accounting, Buying, Planning, and Merch Ops for NetSuite questions in the procure-to-pay and order-to-cash space
Triage and prioritize production issues and small enhancements; ensure issues are clearly described, reproducible, and routed to the right technical owner
Communicate status, risks, and release timelines clearly; contribute to training materials and release notes for process or system changes
Growth and roadmap contribution
Develop a deep understanding of Backcountry’s procure-to-pay and order-to-cash flows and how they connect to upstream and downstream systems like WMS and payment gateways
Over time, own a focused sub-domain and shape backlog and roadmap priorities grounded in data and stakeholder input
Continuously propose and test improvements that reduce manual work, improve data quality, and improve financial accuracy and operational efficiency
What you bring:
1–3 years of experience in product management, business systems analysis, finance/operations systems, or a similar role; experience with internal tools or ERP/financial systems is a strong plus
Familiarity with NetSuite or another ERP; comfort learning NetSuite concepts such as transactions, item records, vendors, workflows, and saved searches
Basic SQL skills and experience using BI tools to explore data, build simple reports, and support business cases and opportunity sizing
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills
Experience working with cross-functional partners (e.g., Accounting, Buying, Planning, Operations) and an engineering team to deliver system changes
Familiarity with Agile practices and standard collaboration tools (e.g., Jira or similar, Confluence or similar, spreadsheets)
Work Style and Location
Hybrid role with a mix of on-site collaboration and remote work; specific office/location will be defined based on team needs
Ideal for an early-career product manager or systems-savvy operator eager to learn ERP and merchandising systems deeply, grow quickly, and step into more ownership over time
