Junior ERP Developer

📍 Guwahati 🏷️ ERP & Business Applications 💰 ₹26,000 / month

Quick Overview

A Ganeshguri-based employer in Guwahati is looking for a Junior ERP Developer to join part-time, on-site. If you've done some hands-on work customizing an ERP module and want something that fits around a lighter schedule rather than a full workweek, this is worth a look. The role sits within a small ERP consulting team that supports a handful of client businesses across the region rather than one single in-house system. Each client's setup is different enough that no two weeks of configuration work look quite the same.

What the Job Involves

The work centers on making an ERP system actually fit how a business runs, rather than the other way around.
  • Tailor and adjust the relevant software modules so day-to-day operations map cleanly onto the system
  • Sit down with stakeholders to understand what they need before touching any configuration
  • Help end users through the rough patch right after a new module goes live
That last part is usually the busiest stretch. Once a module is live, people who've been doing something a certain way for years suddenly have to relearn parts of their daily routine, and many support tickets in those first couple of weeks are really just questions about a workflow that changed. A junior developer who can explain a change patiently, more than once if needed, saves everyone time compared to someone who just points at documentation. Business process knowledge matters here as much as anything technical, since half the job is understanding what a department was trying to accomplish before the system change confused things.

What You'll Need

The role expects a four-year degree in information technology, business administration, or a related field. Alongside that, real hands-on time implementing at least one ERP module matters more than which specific system it was. A candidate whose only exposure came from formal coursework, without any hands-on configuration work, would likely need more ramp-up time than the role's pace allows.
  • ERP customization
  • SQL
  • Workflow configuration
  • Business process knowledge
At least a year of that kind of hands-on implementation work is the baseline experience level here. Someone who spent that year on a single long implementation project will likely be just as strong a fit as someone who touched several smaller ones. Direct SQL comfort matters too, since a surprising amount of ERP configuration work eventually comes down to querying the underlying database to figure out why a report is showing the wrong number.

Pay and Schedule

This is a part-time role paying up to ₹26,000 a month, based on-site in Ganeshguri, Guwahati. Naukri Mitra hears from candidates that part-time ERP developer jobs in Guwahati are harder to find than full-time ones, since most companies still default to full-time hiring for this kind of technical work. The schedule here is genuinely flexible rather than a full-time job disguised with a part-time label, and hours can usually be arranged around another commitment like coursework or a second role. A typical week might land somewhere around twenty to twenty-five hours, though the exact split can be worked out during the interview based on what fits both sides. Ganeshguri is reasonably central in Guwahati, so getting to the office shouldn't add much to the day, regardless of which part-time schedule is agreed on.

Benefits

  • Pro-rated paid leave
  • Flexible in-office scheduling
  • Performance-based incentives
  • Relocation assistance and accommodation support for candidates relocating to Guwahati

Room to Grow

Even in a part-time capacity, the exposure here covers a fairly complete slice of ERP work, gathering requirements, building the configuration, and supporting people once it's live. A junior developer who works across a few implementations picks up a broad enough picture of the process to move into a fuller consulting role later, whether that's with this same employer or elsewhere in a market where ERP experience is consistently in demand. Some part-time hires here have transitioned into full-time roles once their schedule opened up, though that path depends entirely on individual circumstances rather than being an automatic progression.

The Learning Curve

Configuring an ERP module isn't just a technical exercise. A setting that looks correct on paper can conflict with how a department actually processes an order, and catching that kind of mismatch before it reaches production usually takes sitting with the people who'll use the system rather than just reading their requirements document. Junior developers here typically shadow a senior consultant through their first implementation before taking one on with more independence. That shadowing period isn't a formality either; it's where most practical judgment about when to push back on a stakeholder's request gets learned.

Why Part-Time Makes Sense Here

ERP implementation work often comes in defined phases: requirements gathering, configuration, testing, go-live support, rather than a constant stream of tickets. A part-time schedule can map onto that rhythm reasonably well, especially during the quieter stretches between major phases. For someone balancing this against studies or another commitment, that structure tends to be more workable than it would be in a role with a steadier, always-on workload. It also means the pace rarely feels frantic, since the work is scoped around what genuinely needs doing in a given phase rather than an arbitrary eight-hour block to fill.

How to Apply

Send a resume through this listing along with a note on which ERP platform or module you've worked with directly, even if that experience came through a college project or a short-term contract. Interviews typically walk through a specific configuration scenario, so it helps to be ready to explain your reasoning rather than just naming tools you've used. Candidates interested in a specific schedule arrangement are welcome to raise that during the interview rather than waiting until an offer is made. If you're balancing this alongside a degree program, it's fine to say so upfront, since the team has worked around exam schedules and semester breaks before. There's no fixed application deadline for this posting, so applying a bit later doesn't put anyone at a disadvantage.
