🎯 Who Lime Is Looking For

  • Has 10+ years ERP experience, with at least 7 years deep in Oracle Fusion Cloud, specifically Order Management, Subscription Management, Revenue Management, Accounts Receivable, and General Ledger.

  • Expert in SQL/PL-SQL for data analysis, integration troubleshooting, and custom report development.
  • Comfortable leading technical architecture decisions and mentoring junior engineers in a remote-first environment.

📝 Tips for Applying to Lime

1

Highlight specific Oracle Fusion modules you've implemented end-to-end, especially Subscription Management and Revenue Management, as these are critical for Lime's recurring revenue model.

Quantify the transaction volume or revenue scale you've managed (e.g., 'Architected system processing $500M annual revenue across 1M subscriptions').

3

Showcase integration experience with middleware (e.g., MuleSoft, Dell Boomi) and commerce platforms (e.g., Shopify, Stripe) to demonstrate ability to connect Lime's scooter rental data to financial systems.

4

Mention any experience with tax engines (e.g., Avalara, Vertex) and payment gateways, as Lime operates globally with varying tax and payment complexities.

5

Tailor your resume to emphasize 'Order to Cash' process optimization, not just technical skills; include metrics like reduced billing errors or faster revenue close.
