What You’ll Do

• Architect end-to-end EWM solutions for greenfield, brownfield, and migration projects (e.g., ECC → S/4HANA), ensuring excellence in design, integration, and execution.
• Lead solution design across inbound, outbound, inventory, labor management, automation, and warehouse optimization scenarios.
• Engage directly with senior client stakeholders to translate business objectives into integrated EWM architecture.
• Integrate EWM seamlessly with SAP modules (MM, SD, PP, TM) and third‑party systems (WCS, 3PL, automation/robotics).
• Advise on best practices and guide customers in adopting future‑proof and SAP‑aligned processes.
• Evaluate customizations and provide recommendations on configuration vs. development.
• Partner with project management to support scoping, resource planning, risk mitigation, and delivery quality.

• Proven ability to architect and deliver robust EWM solutions in both S/4HANA and ECC landscapes.
• Strong knowledge of warehouse operations, supply chain processes, and logistics optimization.
• Excellent client‑facing communication skills and the confidence to lead workshops and drive decision‑making.
