Continuous Improvement: Draft clear business requirement documents (BRDs) for system enhancements and workflow automations. Testing, Training & User Enablement UAT & Release Management: Lead User Acceptance Testing (UAT) for patches, software upgrades, and custom configurations to ensure zero disruption to live operations. Floor Coaching & Training: Observe system usage on the floor, identify training gaps, and reinforce standard operating procedures (SOPs) and best practices with frontline operators and leads. Qualifications & Requirements Experience & Education WMS Experience: 1–3+ years of direct, hands‑on experience working with warehouse management systems ( Manhattan Associates SCALE preferred; equivalent advanced WMS super‑user experience will be considered). Industry Background: Experience in 3PL distribution or regulated environments (Life Sciences, Pharma, Medical Device, Cold Chain) is a strong plus. Education: High School Diploma or GED required; Associate or Bachelor’s degree in Supply Chain, Logistics, Management Information Systems (MIS), or related technical discipline preferred. Certifications: Manhattan Associates training certification or recognition as a WMS Super‑User is an asset. Technical & Functional Skills Core Logistics Knowledge: Strong grasp of distribution workflows, including wave planning, cross‑docking, cycle counting, and multi‑channel fulfillment. Troubleshooting Mindset: Solid analytical and problem‑solving skills for data validation, error tracking, and custom reporting. Communication: Ability to translate complex technical concepts into clear, actionable guidance for warehouse associates and operational management. Work Environment & Physical Demands Hybrid Floor/Desk Setting: Comfortable splitting time between an office workstation and actively walking the concrete warehouse floor to support operations.
