  • Ability to analyze transaction failures, identify root causes, and distinguish between platform configuration issues, data issues, process gaps, and backend system limitations.
  • Strong cross-functional communication skills with the ability to translate technical EDI requirements into clear business actions for Sales, Operations, Finance, and IT teams.
  • Demonstrated problem-solving skills, attention to detail, sense of urgency, and ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment.
  • Experience creating process documentation, issue logs, escalation procedures, test plans, or corrective action tracking preferred.
  • Knowledge of MS Office products, including Excel, Word, and PowerPoint; experience with Salesforce, ERP, WMS, or order management systems preferred.

  • Understanding of retailer-specific compliance requirements, including SSCC pallet labeling, ASN structure, pallet hierarchy, carton and package information, and shipping validation.
  • Ability to identify which data must exist in the ERP (e.g., customer PO type, department number, routing information, carrier details, GS1/SSCC numbers, package weights, and pallet information) and to determine how that data should be generated.
  • Knowledge of GS1 standards, barcode requirements, pallet identification, and retail shipping compliance.
  • Ability to read retailer implementation guides and translate them into functional requirements, ERP enhancements, field mappings, interface specifications, and SPS/platform configuration, working with business users, developers, and integration teams to meet both business and retailer compliance requirements.
