Fulfillment IQ is a supply chain engineering and transformation company that helps brands, retailers, and 3PLs design, build, and scale high-performance logistics operations. We work at the intersection of strategy, operations, and technology, solving complex real-world problems across warehouse design, automation, order management, transportation, and end-to-end supply chain execution. Our teams deliver outcomes through consulting, systems implementation, and proprietary platforms that accelerate time-to-value and reduce delivery risk.

• Perform root‑cause analysis, debugging, and performance tuning (queries, stored procedures, indexing, execution plans).
• Partner with clients and stakeholders during SIT, UAT, go‑live, and post‑go‑live phases.
• Troubleshoot production issues and resolve both functional and technical problems within defined SLAs.
• Participate in Agile ceremonies and contribute to continuous improvement initiatives.
• Maintain high‑quality documentation: technical designs, test plans, runbooks, and configuration records.

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.
• 1‑3 years of experience in WMS implementations or supply chain execution systems.
• Strong techno‑functional background in any WMS platform.

• Experience with API testing tools and system integrations (ERP/OMS/TMS/MHE).
• Demonstrable troubleshooting and debugging skills across application, integration, and data layers.
• Excellent interpersonal, documentation, and communication skills.
• Ability to work effectively with cross‑functional and geographically distributed teams.

• Experience integrating WMS with Goods‑to‑Person, AS/RS, or other automation technologies.
