at Lime

🏢 About Lime

Lime is a leader in micromobility, providing eco-friendly shared scooters and bikes to reduce urban congestion and carbon emissions. Working here means contributing to sustainable transportation with a fast-growing, mission-driven company that operates in hundreds of cities globally.

About This Role

As a Senior ERP Application Engineer, you'll be the technical backbone of Lime's financial and procurement systems, driving NetSuite customizations and integrations. Your work directly impacts operational efficiency, enabling Lime to scale its green mobility solutions while maintaining accurate financials and vendor management.

💡 A Day in the Life

Your day might start with a stand-up to align on priorities, then dive into SuiteScript development for a new Coupa integration or a custom NetSuite workflow for landed cost. Midday, you might troubleshoot a vendor payment issue during month-end close, and later document your solution while coordinating with the finance team—all from your home office in Canada.

⚠️ Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Don't focus on generic ERP experience without emphasizing NetSuite and the specific modules mentioned (Fixed Assets, Landed Cost, etc.).
  • Avoid downplaying the importance of on-call support; Lime needs someone who can handle production issues outside business hours.
  • Don't ignore the remote aspect—ensure you demonstrate strong communication and self-management skills for a remote-first role.
