Finance teams use it to build the processes their ERP does not cover: purchase-to-pay, period close, asset management, approvals; and every one of those processes ends in a posted accounting entry, not a spreadsheet. It runs alongside the ERP a company already has. One price, unlimited applications. UniFi is built on .NET and React, running on AWS with PostgreSQL (Aurora) and SQL Server underneath, with CI/CD in Azure DevOps. It has an established customer base and we are now taking it to market on its own, beyond our SunSystems and NetSuite base. About the role You will be the first Head of Product for UniFi.
