About the role
We are seeking a highly skilled and domain-expert Senior Software Engineer join our Supply Chain Technology team. This is a critical role during a transformative period for our logistics network. We are currently migrating our distribution centers from a legacy, in-house built iSeries (AS/400) WMS to Manhattan Active Warehouse Management (MAWM).
In this role, you will bridge the gap between legacy operations and future-state cloud technology. You will split your time between supporting Distribution Centers on existing iSeries WMS platform and driving the configuration, testing, and deployment of the new Manhattan Active WM application. As migration progresses, your focus will heavily shift toward becoming a primary subject matter expert and developer for Manhattan Active WM
Responsibilities
- System Migration & Dual Support: Support daily Distribution Center (DC) operations on the legacy iSeries WMS while actively executing project tasks to migrate sites to Manhattan Active WM.
- MAWM Configuration & Implementation: Partner with implementation teams to configure the Manhattan Active WM application to meet specific distribution center operational workflows, inventory strategies, and sorting parameters.
- Reporting & Analytics: Design, develop, and deploy operational reports and dashboards using Cognos SCI (Supply Chain Intelligence) to ensure seamless data visibility post-migration.
- Document & Label Design: Build, modify, and test critical logistics documents, compliance labels, and operational reports required for warehouse floor execution.
- Requirements & Documentation: Collaborate with cross-functional stakeholders and program managers to gather robust technical and business requirements, translating them into well-structured user stories and documentation within Jira.
- Testing & Quality Assurance: Play an active role in progressive testing phases (System Integration Testing, User Acceptance Testing) by writing test cases, validating data flows between systems, and debugging configuration issues.
- Go-Live & Hypercare Support: Provide dedicated, on-site or remote technical support during critical go-live windows and the immediate hypercare period to ensure minimal disruption to DC operations.
- Cloud & Integration: Work within GCP to manage and troubleshoot data integration patterns, ensuring real-time communication between the warehouse, carriers, and customers.
- Multi-Platform Evolution: While your initial focus is WMS, you will progressively take on projects involving Transportation Management Systems (TMS) and other integrated logistics applications.
Knowledge, skills & abilities requirements
- Experience: Minimum of 7+ years of hands-on software development and systems analysis experience within the Warehouse Management / Supply Chain Logistics domain.
- Legacy Systems: Extensive technical experience with the IBM iSeries (AS/400) platform, including proficiency in RPG, RPGL
