Suitable candidates will receive client‑specific training during onboarding.

- Write, review, optimize, and maintain SQL queries and stored procedures within relational databases (e.g., Oracle, MySQL).
- 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.
- 3-5 years of experience in WMS implementations or supply‑chain execution systems.
- Strong tech‑functional background in any WMS platform.
- Deep understanding of warehouse workflows: receiving, picking, packing, shipping, returns, etc.
- Advanced proficiency in SQL, including designing and optimizing stored procedures, complex queries, indexing, and performance tuning on relational databases (e.g., Oracle, MySQL).
- 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.
- This position requires approximately 50% travel initially, with the potential to increase up to 75% over the next six months.
- Experience integrating WMS with Goods‑to‑Person, AS/RS, or other automation technologies.
- Exposure to OMS, TMS, or EDI messaging standards.
