Position Summary 

This role is a full-time, project-based Oracle Fusion Cloud SCM Product Management Implementation Engineer responsible for delivering a governed, scalable product master capability across the enterprise. The position leads the end-to-end workstream, from solution design through configuration, data migration, integrations alignment, testing, cutover, and hypercare.  Responsibilities include ensuring strong cross-functional alignment with dependent Oracle SCM and ERP areas such as Procurement, Inventory, Manufacturing, Planning, Costing, and Order Management. 

A key expectation is the ability to translate complex business requirements into implementable designs, including mathematically driven logic for derived attributes, conversions, validation formulas, rounding/tolerances, and other complex calculation requirements. The role also drives high-quality outcomes through disciplined documentation, stakeholder management, defect triage, and delivery governance. 

Success in this position requires deep hands-on Oracle Fusion Product Hub experience, proven leadership of implementation projects, and strong analytical and communication skills. Experience with the Oracle Redwood user experience is a plus, as is an engineering degree and Food & Beverage industry background, particularly where product complexity, traceability, shelf-life, lot/quality considerations, and process manufacturing requirements influence item master design and governance.
