I'd expect to be putting out a lot of fires in that role. I worked for a biotech for nine years that used ChemCart. I feel like a spent a cumulative 3 or 4 months telling ChemCart what features were broken after they pushed through unannounced updates. They were also stingy with how many AWS resources they assigned us, which made many problems worse.
