About the Opportunity:

- 3+ years SAP EWM, including integration with Production Planning workflows.
- 3+ years executing Kanban in SAP.
- Able to work full Pacific Time hours, remote.
- U.S. Person only (U.S. Citizen or Green Card holder) — ITAR. No sponsorship, CPT, OPT, H-1B, or TN.
Preferred Qualifications:
- SAP Manufacturing Execution (ME).
- Communications, media, technology, or high-tech manufacturing.
- Prior delivery at a large consulting or systems-integration firm.
Benefits:
- Health Insurance.
- Dental Insurance.
