  • Monitor, troubleshoot, and resolve daily operational issues, purchase order interface discrepancies, GR/IR variances, and electronic data interchange (EDI) transactional exceptions.
  • Maintain data governance, integrity, and mass maintenance for critical procurement master data, including material master, vendor master, info records, and source lists.
  • Author comprehensive business requirement documents (BRDs), functional design specifications (FSDs), user acceptance test (UAT) scripts, and standard operating procedures (SOPs).
  • Partner with cross-functional IT colleagues, ABAP developers, and third-party integration partners to design, test, and deploy enhancements and system interfaces.
  • Coordinate with the Integration Management Office (IMO) where applicable to align milestone timelines, deliver integration requirements, and support cross-stream governance.
  • Ensure alignment with global coding and architecture standards for technical roles, championing "standard-over-custom" SAP best practices and maintaining audit/compliance controls.
  • Support Day 1 readiness and stabilization objectives by proactively identifying system bottlenecks, assisting in cutover activities, and providing hypercare and training to business end-users.

What You Will Need To Be Successful

  • Bachelor’s degree in Information Technology, Computer Science, Supply Chain Management, Business Administration, or a related discipline (or equivalent practical experience).
  • 3 to 5 years of progressive functional and technical experience supporting SAP ERP environments, with a strong focus on SAP ECC Materials Management (MM) and Procure-to-Pay (P2P) cycles.
  • Demonstrated hands-on configuration experience in core SAP MM modules, including purchase requisitions, purchase orders, outline agreements/contracts, pricing conditions, release procedures, goods receipt processing, and invoice verification.
  • Solid experience managing purchasing and material master data, vendor master records, purchasing info records (PIR), source lists, and inventory management parameters.
  • Strong understanding of cross-module integration points between SAP MM, Finance (FI-AP), Logistics Execution (LE), and Production Planning (PP).
  • Working knowledge of SAP integration technologies and data exchanges (e.g., IDocs, EDI transactions such as 850, 855, 856, and 810, and BAPIs) connecting SAP to external supplier portals or supply chain applications.
  • Proven analytical and problem-solving capabilities, with the ability to lead requirements gathering, create functional specification documents (FSDs), execute test scripts (FUT/SIT/UAT), and troubleshoot production incidents.
