• 4-8 years of experience in Material Master Data Management, Data Migration, or Supply Chain Data Readiness roles.
• Strong hands-on experience with Material Master data (basic data, MRP, inventory, valuation, classification, BoMs, and planning attributes).
• Solid understanding of end-to-end Supply Chain processes including Plan-to-Produce, Source-to-Pay, Inventory Management and Asset Maintenance.
• Experience working on SAP ERP or SAP S4/HANA programs; exposure to MDG, data migration tools, or data governance frameworks is an advantage.
