- Why join our Team?

Does the prospect of acquiring expertise in leading-edge technologies speak to you? The technologies that our team works most closely with, SAP Ariba Supply Chain Collaboration (SCC) and the SAP Ariba Cloud Integration Gateway (CIG), are some of the most recent additions to SAP Ariba’s portfolio; they are generating significant buzz among SAP’s customer base. SAP Ariba SCC provides the missing link in the quest to drive an efficient supply chain. As a unified, cohesive solution it allows effective collaboration by providing actionable intelligence, extensive supply chain visibility, and automated interactions between trading partners.

  • Job Summary

The principal responsibility of a Supply Chain Integrator is to support the implementation of SAP Ariba Supply Chain Collaboration by SAP Ariba’s “buyer” & “supplier” customers. More specifically, you would provide consultative guidance regarding the technical components of the Ariba Network connectivity solutions.

Your work will be project-based. The projects are generally termed engagements from when a customer is initially “kicking off” their deployment of SAP Ariba SCC and the solution’s transactional “go-live”. The project lifecycle follows the SAP Activate adoption framework with phases consisting of Prepare, Explore, Realize, and Deploy. You will support multiple buyer customers concurrently. Each project is unique, but you will find the common threads between your different assignments and use your experience to better deliver SAP Ariba SCC integration on future assignments.

You will be a crucial player in the collection of customer requirements, the crafting of a system design to meet those requirements, the roll-out of that design into new software solutions and system enhancements, the challenging of the new system through a testing phase, and the readying of the new system for productive use. While the new system is being tested, you are responsible for investigating issues and overseeing their resolution.

You will be an SCC product expert and as such you will bridge customer requirements and SCC core product functionality. Your knowledge of the Ariba Network’s requirements and cXML (the Ariba Network’s electronic business document format) specifications will enable you to reconcile customer requirements with product capabilities.

You will provide your customers expertise on Ariba Network integration options which include SAP Ariba-created integration tools like the Cloud Integration Gateway, as well as customer or third party-built solutions. Furthermore, customers will consult you regarding functional configuration changes or customizations/extensions to systems in their existing landscape so that those systems can integrate with SAP Ariba SCC in a manner to meet their business objectives most effectively.

In assisting in the development of Supply Chain Collaboration processes, you will work with team members from SAP Ariba, our buyer customers, their suppliers, and partners. You’ll collaborate with other team members to impact the customer’s overall success and satisfaction.

You will own projects and be responsible for driving them to completion. We can depend on you to independently manage your projects from start to finish, and as such you are granted wide latitude to execute the project in ways that you believe will ensure success. You have the flexibility to adjust your working hours to the needs of global customers as well as travel up to 30%.
