Are you a seasoned SAP EAM professional ready to make a significant impact on critical enterprise systems? We are seeking a highly skilled and dynamic individual to lead the design, implementation, and optimization of cutting-edge Enterprise Asset Management solutions. In this pivotal role, you will be instrumental in transforming how our client manages its assets, directly influencing operational efficiency, reliability, and strategic decision-making across the organization. Your expertise will drive the full lifecycle of SAP EAM projects, from conceptualization to post-go-live support, shaping the technological landscape and empowering business units with robust, future-proof solutions.

What You'll Do

• Lead hands-on functional configuration and design for SAP Enterprise Asset Management (EAM), including PM/SM and PS modules.
• Drive full lifecycle SAP EAM implementations, encompassing business requirements gathering, workshops, gap analysis, blueprinting, design, configuration, testing, cutover, data migration, go-live, training, and ongoing support.
• Contribute to the implementation and execution of SAP EAM/Plant Maintenance processes by assessing current states, identifying customer requirements, and defining future-state business solutions.
• Translate detailed business requirements into comprehensive systems design documents and implement them effectively within SAP.

• Ensure business and functional requirements are consistently maintained throughout the development and configuration processes.
• Serve as a primary liaison between the client, vendors, project management, and technical teams for solution architecture questions, issues, and revisions.
• Guide complex fit/gap analysis and design decisions, validating these decisions to ensure deviations from standard functionality are justified and deliver positive value.
• Provide expert consulting services for both new SAP implementations and existing support projects.
• Offer ad-hoc training and user support as needed, empowering end-users with system proficiency.
• Work autonomously and independently, often acting as a subject matter mentor to less experienced team members.
