What I'm looking for

I seek senior SAP OTC/SD roles driving S/4HANA implementations, data migrations and EDI integrations in global, multi-channel retail/fashion environments with opportunities to lead teams and drive process improvement.

I am a certified SAP OTC/SD senior functional consultant with over 11 years of end-to-end SAP implementation and post-implementation experience across SAP R/3, ECC, AFS, FMS, and S/4HANA, serving domestic and global customers in retail and fashion. I have led OTC workstreams, data migrations, EDI integrations, and multi-country implementations while managing onshore/offshore teams and driving process optimization and automation.

I excel at stakeholder engagement, workshops, knowledge transfer and cross-module integration (MM/WM, FICO) to deliver scalable, business-aligned solutions. Notable achievements include reducing post-go-live defects (30%), achieving zero-defect EDI go-lives, and significantly improving order processing and data accuracy during large greenfield and migration projects.
