■ Position Overview

HD Hyundai Power Transformers USA is seeking an IT Engineer (System Engineer) to take ownership of the enterprise systems behind our power-transformer manufacturing operation. The System Engineer operates and improves the company’s ERP environment, builds and integrates HCM and in-house applications, and drives SOC 2 compliance — working across the full stack from business-process design through development and ongoing operations. The role partners closely with both end users and HD Hyundai’s headquarters (HQ) in Korea, translating business needs into reliable, well-governed systems. The ideal candidate combines hands-on technical depth with the analytical and cross-functional skills to standardize and continuously improve how the company runs its core systems.

■ Key Responsibilities

1. HQ Liaison & ERP Operations (SAP S/4HANA / Legacy ERP)

• Serve as the on-site technical liaison with HD Hyundai HQ IT for the customized SAP S/4HANA and legacy ERP environment.


• Translate user issues into HQ technical specifications, and HQ resolutions into end-user guidance.


• Administer the ERP user environment (provisioning/deprovisioning, role/permission mapping) and resolve access issues.


• Coordinate UAT and validate ERP changes and updates deployed by HQ.

2. SOC 2 Compliance & External Audit Support

• Coordinate the company’s SOC 2 Type II audit readiness across IT infrastructure, security controls, user access management, and operational procedures.


• Orchestrate the audit engagement, aligning cross-functional teams and the external auditor on scope, schedule, and deliverables.


• Collect evidence, document controls, and resolve findings, carrying the engagement through to SOC 2 Type II certification.

3. HCM (ADP) Implementation & Integration

• Build and operate the company’s HCM (ADP) system to meet HD Hyundai’s global HR standards, configuring ADP to implement the company’s specific business processes.


• Review and analyze inefficient legacy HR processes and proactively define improvements, then implement the redesigned processes in ADP.


• Establish reliable, secure data integration between ADP and the ERP systems, ensuring HR and access data remain accurate and audit-ready across the organization.

4. In-house Full-Stack Application Development

• Design and develop in-house full-stack applications that digitize and streamline core business processes.


• Build out an integrated suite of internal systems — such as electronic-signature approval workflows, employee-master management, and role-based access control for SOC 2 — designed to operate as one cohesive platform.


• Drive each application end-to-end — from business-process and workflow design with end users, through build, deployment, and ongoing operations.


• Architect applications to be SOC 2-compliant by design, with security controls and audit logging.

5. Enterprise IT Standardization & Ongoing Operations

• Author and maintain English-language operating procedures localized from HQ documentation; conduct cross-departmental onboarding and rollout.


• Maintain the company homepage and supporting internal systems.


• Other duties as assigned.

■ Required Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, or a related field.


• 2+ years of relevant IT experience.


• Korean–English bilingual proficiency (business-essential): full professional reading and writing in Korean is required for daily coordination with HQ, ERP operations, and the SOC 2 audit.
