Role Overview

We are seeking a highly analytical and technical WMS Configuration Consultant to lead the design, build, and optimization of our new WMS platform. We are open to experts from Manhattan (Active/WMOS), Blue Yonder (JDA), Korber (HighJump), or Oracle LogFire who possess the "architect’s mindset" to translate complex business requirements into system configurations.

You will be responsible for the end-to-end technical setup, creating complex customizations via rule engines, and ensuring the system scales with our operational growth.

Key Responsibilities

• System Architecture: Lead the functional and technical design of the WMS, ensuring it aligns with physical warehouse flows (receiving, putaway, wave management, picking, and shipping).

• Configuration & Customization: Hands-on configuration of the Made4net environment. Use the internal toolsets/rule engines to build custom logic for task interleaving, slotting, and replenishment strategies.

• Workflow Design: Map "As-Is" vs. "To-Be" processes, identifying gaps where the WMS requires custom business logic or integration touchpoints.

• Integration Support: Collaborate with IT teams to map data between the WMS and ERP/TMS/MHE systems (via API, Flat Files, or XML).

• Testing & UAT: Develop test scripts and lead User Acceptance Testing (UAT) to validate that customizations meet operational speed and accuracy requirements.

• Performance Tuning: Identify bottlenecks in the system logic and re-configure rules to improve warehouse throughput.

Required Qualifications

• WMS Pedigree: 5+ years of deep configuration experience in at least one major WMS:

  • Manhattan Associates (Active, WMOS, SCALE)

  • Blue Yonder / JDA (Dispatcher or WMS)

  • Korber / HighJump (Advantage platform experience is a huge plus)

  • Made4net (WarehouseExpert)

• Logic-Driven Mindset: Proven ability to build "if-then-else" logic, SQL queries, or rule-based workflows to solve complex operational hurdles.

• Data Literacy: Strong proficiency in SQL (T-SQL or PL/SQL) for data backend validation and reporting.

• Problem Solving: You don't just "use" the software; you understand the underlying database schema and how data moves through the application.

---

Preferred Skills (The "Nice-to-Haves")

• Experience with Made4net WarehouseExpert or other NetSuite-integrated WMS platforms.

• Knowledge of MHE Integration (conveyors, sorters, or AMR/Robotics).

• Label design experience (Bartender, Loftware, or ZPL).

• Background in 3PL environments with multi-tenant configuration needs.
