Lead the Entegris architectural planning, design, and execution of the SAP GTS upgrade to E4H alongside the integration partner.

Conduct system assessments and fit-gap analysis to identify business needs, recommend best practices, and define the optimal GTS solution roadmap for the new environment.

Oversee data migration, interface compatibility, and integration of GTS with SAP ECC modules (e.g., SD, MM, FI), as well as third-party systems.

Production Support & Optimization:

Provide expert-level, day-to-day functional and technical support for the SAP GTS system and related processes.

Stay informed about changes in international trade regulations and trade compliance laws to ensure the company’s ongoing compliance.

Drive solution governance and ensure that all new developments and changes adhere to design standards and best practices.
