- Act as the bridge between the data analytics team, Navy ERP functional SMEs, and government stakeholders, keeping data products aligned with NWCF business rules and DMAG/SMAG reporting requirements, and providing regular updates on program status, risks, and issues.
- Lead Navy ERP augmentation support for DMAG and SMAG — including functional system support, process improvement, requirements analysis, and corrective action coordination — while managing and mentoring a distributed team with up to 25% travel to satellite locations.
- Provide senior-level subject matter expertise in Navy ERP (SAP) processes within the context of DMAG accounting and SMAG supply management operations, including work order processing, supply and financial transaction processing, cost accounting, and operational reporting.
- Translate Navy ERP Tier 2/3 technical and system nuances into actionable solutions for DMAG and SMAG operational teams and client stakeholders, ensuring issues are addressed effectively and sustainably.
- Oversee the development and governance of data products within the Advana/War Data Platform — including dashboards, data pipelines, and reporting tools — ensuring deliverables meet DoD data standards, Advana platform policies, and DMAG/SMAG financial reporting and decision support requirements.
- Identify root causes of system and process discrepancies within DMAG and SMAG Navy ERP environments and lead the development and implementation of sustainable process and system improvement recommendations.
- Maintain awareness of evolving DoD financial management policy, Advana platform developments, and Navy ERP system changes as they relate to DMAG and SMAG operations, proactively adjusting program approach as needed.
Required Qualifications
- Minimum of 8–10 years of progressive experience in DoD financial or supply management, Navy ERP consulting, or ERP augmentation support, with at least 3 years in a program or team lead capacity.
- Demonstrated expertise in Navy ERP (SAP ECC or S/4HANA) functional support, particularly within DMAG and/or SMAG operational environments or comparable Navy Working Capital Fund depot maintenance and supply management accounting activities.
- Hands-on experience with Navy ERP at Tier 2 or Tier 3 support levels, with strong functional knowledge of processes and system configurations relevant to depot-level maintenance accounting and supply management operations.
- Strong understanding of Navy ERP modules related to FI, FM, SD, MM, PM, and CO, with demonstrated ability to troubleshoot and advise on cross-functional processes within a DMAG or SMAG context.
- Proven experience managing teams and programs within a DoD financial management, depot maintenance, supply management, or ERP consulting environment.
- Familiarity with the Advana/War Data Platform including experience overseeing or directing the development of data analytics products, dashboards, or decision support tools within a DoD enterprise data ecosystem.
- Ability to bridge Navy ERP functional domain knowledge with data analytics capabilities, translating DMAG and SMAG business and operational requirements into actionable data product specifications for a technical analytics team.
- Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills with demonstrated ability to operate effectively across technical, operational, and executive domains.
Preferred Qualifications
- Familiarity with the financial and supply chain processes unique to Marine Corps or Navy depot activities — including work order costing, reimbursable accounting, and inventory management — and how those processes are represented and managed within Navy ERP.
- Knowledge of DFAS processes, Treasury interfaces, Defense Departmental Reporting System (DDRS), Defense Daily Expenditure File (DDEF), or the Advana analytics platform as they relate to Depot Maintenance Activity Group and Supply Management Activity Group reporting requirements.
- Hands-on experience building or managing data products within Advana/War Data Platform, including familiarity with data ingestion, transformation, and visualization tools (e.g., Qlik, Tableau, or Power BI within the Advana environment) and DoD data governance standards.
- Experience translating Navy ERP financial and supply data — including NWCF cost, revenue, and transaction data relevant to DMAG and SMAG — into structured data models or analytics products that support operational decision making and executive reporting.
- Familiarity with BSO-level financial and supply operations and command-level ERP user management or training coordination.
- PMP certification or equivalent program management credential preferred.
