Position Summary

We are seeking a highly experienced Senior SAP Logistics Consultant with expert-level proficiency in SAP S/4HANA Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) and SAP ECC Warehouse Management (WM). In this role, you will lead end-to-end design, implementation, and optimization of complex warehouse processes within intensive manufacturing and distribution environments. You will act as the primary SME for automated material handling integrations—specifically Automated Storage and Retrieval Systems (ASRS) and Material Flow Systems (MFS)—bridging the gap between core SAP supply chain modules, shop-floor automation, and physical logistics operations.


What you will be doing

  • Lead full lifecycle implementations, rollouts, and migration projects from legacy SAP ECC WM to S/4HANA Embedded EWM (or Decentralized EWM).
  • Design, configure, and optimize complex inbound, outbound, internal production staging (PP-WM/EWM integration), physical inventory, and cross-docking processes.
  • Translate complex manufacturing and logistics operational requirements into scalable, standard SAP architectural designs.
  • Lead technical and functional integration of SAP EWM-MFS with automated warehouse technology, including ASRS, AGVs, conveyers, sorters, and high-bay storage.
  • Define interface architecture and mapping between SAP EWM and 3rd-party PLC / WCS / WMS platforms via IDocs, Web Services (REST/SOAP), and TCP/IP sockets.
  • Drive seamless integration across adjacent SAP modules: PP (Production Planning), QM (Quality Management), MM (Materials Management), SD (Sales & Distribution), and TM (Transportation Management).
  • Design shop-floor execution interfaces (RF framework, mobile devices, custom screens) to streamline operator execution.
  • Conduct deep-dive functional workshops with plant leadership, supply chain directors, and warehouse managers to redesign physical workflows.
  • Provide escalation support for critical production issues within high-volume manufacturing environments.
  • Write comprehensive functional specifications (FS) for custom enhancements (BAdIs, user exits), custom RF transactions, standard reports, and complex interfaces.


Qualifications

Basic Requirements:

  • Associates degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, Supply Chain, Engineering or Business, and 7 years of applicable experience in hands-on SAP functional configuration experience across SAP ECC WM and SAP S/4HANA EWM. OR;
  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, Supply Chain, Engineering or Business, and 5 years of applicable experience in hands-on SAP functional configuration experience across SAP ECC WM and SAP S/4HANA EWM. OR;
  • Master’s degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, Supply Chain, Engineering or Business, and 3 years of applicable experience in hands-on SAP functional configuration experience across SAP ECC WM and SAP S/4HANA EWM. OR;
  • PhD in Computer Science, Information Technology, Supply Chain, Engineering or Business
  • In lieu of a degree, 9 years of applicable experience in hands-on SAP functional configuration experience across SAP ECC WM and SAP S/4HANA EWM.


Preferred Requirements:

  • Minimum of 3 full-lifecycle end-to-end SAP EWM implementations in complex manufacturing or distribution facilities.
  • Proven experience configuring SAP EWM MFS and managing direct integration with ASRS systems, automated conveyors, and PLC/WCS interfaces.
  • Deep operational understanding of shop-floor staging (e.g., Kitting, Kanban, Just-In-Time/Just-In-Sequence), inbound receiving against POs/Inbound Deliveries, and outbound production supply strategies.
  • Proficiency in ABAP debugging, IDoc processing, RFCs, Web Services, and troubleshooting EWM RF framework processes.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Supply Chain Management, Computer Science, Industrial Engineering, or related field.
  • Official SAP Certification in SAP S/4HANA Extended Warehouse Management.
  • Hands-on experience executing migration projects transitioning legacy ECC WM systems to S/4HANA EWM (Stock Room Management or Advanced EWM).
  • Solid grasp of industrial communications protocols (e.g., OPC UA, TCP/IP) used in smart factory and Industry 4.0 environments.
