Job Description

Own the Admissions and Finance technology that powers the resident journey from application through payment at International House at UC Berkeley.

Responsibilities

Build, configure, and test the annual admissions application in StarRez for each cycle, aligned to an offer calendar deadline, then hand off to the Director of Admissions and Financial Aid for sign-off.
Manage day-to-day StarRez administration and troubleshooting, including terms, rates, room and rate assignment, booking statuses, and underlying business rules.
Maintain the integrity of booking and contract records, resolving reporting issues in the reporting rather than deleting records.
Support move-in and move-out cycles, including the access, card, and data steps required in the correct order.
Own accounting automations for late fees and charges, payment schedules, and generation of the resident statement of account.
Own payment integrations and routing, including Stripe and TouchNet, as well as webhook and signing key configuration required by each provider.
Ensure the resident portal’s account summary reflects the ledger, including awards and scholarships split across terms.
Partner with Accounting on reconciliation, deferred revenue, and accounts receivable tie-out so systems produce what auditors request.
Own the data flow between StarRez and operational platforms: Atrium (meal plans and account balances), Verkada (access and resident photos), Adobe Sign (contracts), and WhenToWork (student worker scheduling and access).
Build and maintain Power Automate flows supporting admissions, finance, and housing operations; ensure each flow is documented and monitored.
Diagnose and resolve integration failures; when failures repeat, change the process rather than repeating the fix.
Own the Power BI data models and reporting infrastructure for admissions, occupancy, revenue, and resident satisfaction.
Own the survey and satisfaction pipeline, including Qualtrics extract and the load feeding weekly reporting.
Ensure each report has a defined owner, a monitored refresh, and a shared definition that teams agree on.
Document systems, processes, and business rules to a standard that enables someone else to run the cycle in your absence.
Export and maintain shared repository artifacts including code, workflow configurations, integration logic, database schemas, and related components.
Maintain an accurate record of which system owns which decision and where each responsibility sits during your unavailability.
Other duties as assigned.

Requirements

3+ years of experience owning a business system or product end to end, or an equivalent combination of education and experience.
Proven experience configuring and administering a complex operational platform, ideally a student housing, CRM, ERP, or billing system.
Strong applied data skills: query databases, reason about schemas, and build trusted reporting.
Experience building automation using tools such as Power Automate, APIs, or comparable toolsets.
Understanding of billing concepts including charges, payment schedules, statements, refunds, and reconciliation.
Ability to meet a fixed calendar deadline for builds other teams depend on.
Clear written communication and strong documentation habits.

Success Looks Like
