• Map NJIT-aligned methodologies and manufacturing best practices into SAP configurations.

• Conduct workshops, user training, and knowledge transfer sessions to ensure adoption and alignment.

• Troubleshoot, resolve functional issues, and recommend process improvements for continuous enhancement.

Must-Have Skills:

• 10+ years of SAP functional experience in either PP (Production Planning) or EWM (Extended Warehouse Management) modules.

• Proven experience implementing DDMRP solutions in SAP S/4HANA environments.

• Familiarity with NJIT-aligned configurations, academic frameworks, or methodologies.

• In-depth understanding of S/4HANA-based production planning and supply chain flows.

• Background in manufacturing industries, preferably in automotive.

Preferred Qualifications:
