Position Summary
We are looking for an experienced Manhattan Active WMS (MAWM) Design & Architect Lead to drive the technical design, solution architecture, and end-to-end implementation of our next-generation Manhattan Active Warehouse Management platform.
In this role, you will act as the core techno-functional subject matter expert, bridging the gap between operational needs and cloud-native WMS capabilities. You will design microservices-based configurations, extensions (ProActive), API-first integrations, and cross-platform automation (MHE/Robotics, ERP, TMS) to power complex fulfillment and distribution environments.

Solution Architecture & System Design
- Lead the end-to-end solution architecture and technical design for Manhattan Active Warehouse Management (MAWM).
- Translate complex operational and business rules into scalable MAWM configurations, extension designs, and functional specs.
- Architect end-to-end flows spanning OMS, WMS, ERP (e.g., SAP, Oracle), TMS, and MHE/WCS/WES automation.
- Leverage Manhattan Active's microservices architecture and unified operational data model to minimize custom code while maximizing operational throughput.
Technical Execution & Extensions
- Oversee and hands-on design extensions and extension packs using ProActive and MAWM configuration tools.
- Lead API-first integration design utilizing MAWM RESTful APIs, JSON/XML payload structures, and event-driven architecture.
- Design, build, and optimize warehouse workflows including receiving, putaway, wave/waveless picking, packing, shipping, slotting, inventory control, and labor management.
- Oversee reporting and label generation architectures (e.g., SCI / Cognos, Jasper Reports, JMagic/BarTender).
