About the role
TMS Solution Architect to design and rollout a global Transportation Management System (TMS) across AMD’s multi-plant, multi-carrier, multi-mode logistics network, partnering Global Logistics and IT to translate business processes into a scalable solution on SAP S/4HANA with integrations and governance.
Responsibilities
- Business process definition — partner with Global Logistics (GL) and IT to define, document, and standardize transportation business processes across regions, plants, and shipment modes.
- Solution design & architecture — own the end-to-end TMS solution design, including order-to-delivery flows, freight order management, carrier selection and rate shopping, routing and route determination, freight settlement, and track-and-trace.
- End-to-end delivery — lead blueprint/fit-gap, configuration oversight, integration design, testing, cutover, and hypercare for the TMS rollout.
- Systems integration — design and govern integrations between the TMS and SAP S/4HANA, EDI carrier connections, control-tower and visibility platforms, and external logistics partners.
- Carrier & multi-mode enablement — drive carrier onboarding and enablement across ocean, air, parcel, and ground for a large, global carrier base.
- Change management — lead stakeholder alignment, process adoption, training, and communications so the solution lands with the business, not just IT.
- Vendor & SI management — partner with software vendors and system integrators; review SOWs, guide delivery teams, and hold them to architecture and quality standards.
- Standards & governance — establish solution standards, data governance, and reusable design patterns to scale the platform across AMD’s network. Recommend process improvements and industry best practices
- Roadmap contribution — support the broader SCT roadmap, including EDI stabilization, RFID, and AI-driven automation initiatives.
Qualifications
- Proven, hands-on experience rolling out a TMS solution end to end — from design through go-live and stabilization — not solely supporting an existing system.
- Direct experience implementing TMS in a dynamic, global multinational with many manufacturing or distribution plants, a large carrier base, and multi-mode transportation (ocean, air, parcel, ground).
- Strong transportation and logistics business-process expertise: freight management, carrier management, rate and route optimization, freight audit and pay, and delivery performance.
- Demonstrated solution-architecture capability across the full path: requirements → solution design → integration design → delivery.
- Track record of leading change management and driving cross-functional adoption across both business and IT.
- Excellent stakeholder management, with the ability to influence without authority across regions and functions.
- Experience integrating transportation systems with SAP ERP and EDI/carrier networks.
- Significant experience in SAP Transportation Management with minimum of 3 to 4 end to end TM implementations.
- Good understanding of SAP supply chain processes
- SAP TMS preferred — SAP Transportation Management (SAP TM) implementation experience strongly preferred.
- Strong understanding about Inbound and Outbound shipments (Domestic and International), Transportation Load Builder (FTL, LTL), different modes of transports, and Freight Settlement.
- Experience with SAP S/4HANA logistics (SD / LE / MM) and embedded or decentralized TM.
- Exposure to leading TMS and control-tower platforms (e.g., Blue Yonder) and logistics visibility solutions.
- Familiarity with semiconductor, high-tech, or high-volume electronics supply chains.
- EDI, API, IDoc, and middleware integration experience across carrier networks.
- Experience with parcel, international ocean and air freight, and customs/brokerage, duties, and taxes considerations.
