This role requires prior experience building degree audits in a degree audit system (e.g., Stellic, PeopleSoft Academic Advisement, DegreeWorks, or equivalent). The Specialist will work closely with University Registrar teams, functional leads, and academic stakeholders to interpret complex program rules, configure audit logic, validate outcomes, and ensure alignment with institutional governance and published requirements. The position is execution-focused and time-bound, with success measured by the quantity, quality, accuracy, and readiness of Stellic audits and pathways for launch.

Required Education:
Bachelor's Degree

Required Experience:
2+ years records management experience in a college or university Registrar's Office or an equivalent combination of education or experience.

Required Skills, Knowledge and Abilities:
Demonstrated experience building degree audits in a higher-education degree audit system (Stellic strongly preferred; PeopleSoft Academic Advisement, DegreeWorks, or equivalent acceptable). Strong understanding of undergraduate and/or graduate degree structures, including requisites, sequencing, exclusions, substitutions, and completion rules. Ability to translate complex, narrative academic requirements into precise, testable system logic. High attention to detail with the ability to identify edge cases, inconsistencies, and data dependencies that impact audit accuracy. Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, particularly in resolving ambiguous or conflicting requirements. Experience testing, validating, and iterating on audit logic using real or simulated student data. Clear written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to document decisions and explain audit behavior to functional and technical partners. Ability to manage multiple builds simultaneously while meeting project deadlines in a fast-paced implementation environment. Comfort working within defined governance structures and adhering to approved requirements without scope creep.
