Description

• Amazon is planning an SAP S/4HANA implementation to support the growth of our industrial robotics organization. You will help design and deliver an ERP that connects finance, accounting, supply chain, procurement, and the shop floor into a single digital thread. We are committed to building the right way from the start: a clean-core approach, standard-first configuration, and an architecture meant to scale with the business. Key job responsibilities - Own the end-to-end solution architecture for the SAP Ariba source-to-pay domain, translating sourcing, contracting, and procurement requirements into a coherent, scalable, standard-first design across Ariba and S/4HANA. - Build the Business Process Designs (BPDs) for the procurement domain, working hand in hand with Procurement, Operations, Finance, and the integrated technical team to align on standard process adoption, exceptions, and trade-offs. - Work backwards from the full source-to-pay lifecycle — supplier onboarding and qualification, sourcing events, contract management, catalog and guided buying, requisitioning, purchase orders, and invoice reconciliation — to ensure the architecture meets operational and commercial needs. - Own the integration architecture connecting Ariba to S/4HANA (MM/FICO) and adjacent domains — Finance, Logistics, and Manufacturing — ensuring procure-to-pay connects cleanly to record-to-report and the supply chain. - Design the Ariba Network and supplier-collaboration integration, bringing supplier transactions, catalogs, and documents into the backend SAP ERP to establish a single source of truth for procurement and spend. - Build procurement controls, approval and segregation-of-duties requirements, master data standards (supplier, material, category), and audit and compliance requirements into the Ariba design as foundational elements of the architecture. - Serve as the senior technical authority for SAP procurement through design and configuration reviews, prototypes, and hands-on resolution of the hardest Ariba configuration and integration problems, mentoring functional analysts and junior architects.

Basic Qualifications

• - 10+ years of IT development or implementation/consulting in the software or Internet industries experience - 2+ years in implementing SAP Ariba platform - Experience in source-to-pay end to end and integrating SAP Ariba with S/4HANA (MM and FICO)
