IT Architect (Supply Chain Operations)

• It is a 100% Remote position.
  

• The Supply Chain Operations Business Systems team defines and builds the IT architecture that powers Client''s supply chain, manufacturing, and commercial operations.
• We sit at the intersection of finance, supply chain, and enterprise IT — delivering world-class capabilities through precise architecture, deep technical expertise, and a relentless focus on operational excellence.
  
• In this fully remote contingent worker engagement, you will partner closely with the Senior Manager, Supply Chain & SCO Systems, and serve as a key technical contributor within the SCO AI Center of Excellence.
• You will architect and own the integration fabric connecting Client''s enterprise ecosystem — from SAP and Blue Yonder to Windchill PLM and Snowflake — enabling the data flows that drive intelligent, automated supply chain operations.
  

• Lead the design, development, deployment, and maintenance of integration processes between cloud and on-premise applications, leveraging Microsoft Azure-native integration services and data integration technologies including Azure Data Factory, Azure Synapse Analytics, Snowflake Cortex, and Apache Spark/Beam.
  
• Own and drive end-to-end systems integration projects, collaborating across Supply Chain, Planning, BE Manufacturing, Engineering, IT, and third-party technology partners.
  
• Partner with business and IT stakeholders to deeply understand operational requirements, translating complex supply chain and manufacturing workflows into elegant, scalable technical solutions built on Microsoft and Azure tooling.
  
• Establish and maintain high standards for integration development — encompassing technical design, solution architecture, error handling, audit management, logging, test documentation, and issue resolution.
  
• Develop clean, maintainable, and reusable integration code that sets a high quality bar across the team and accelerates delivery of future use cases.
  
• Architect and build solutions that deliver measurable business value by automating end-to-end processes — from PLM change orders through supply planning execution — and promoting the use of shared, reusable services across the SCO AI portfolio.
  
• Support AI-enabled workflows by ensuring reliable, high-quality data pipelines that feed forecasting agents, compliance tools, and operational dashboards.

Requirements

• Bachelor''s or Master''s degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, or a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience.
