Work Hours Flexibility : Overlap availability with US Eastern Time (minimum 4-5 hours daily). [Shift allowance can be availed per Capgemini policy]

Key Responsibilities

ERP ↔️ TM Integration (Core)

DRFOUT (Data Replication Framework) configuration for master data replication: business partners, locations, materials, and organizational data from S/4HANA to decentral TM

SOAP/XI web service configuration for transactional integration: sales order → transportation demand → freight order → delivery → PGI → FI posting

RFC destination setup (SM59), logical system configuration (BD54), SOA Manager endpoint registration

Regression testing of any custom BAPIs, RFCs, or Z-programs affected by version mismatch between core S/4HANA and decentral TM instance

SAP BTP Platform (Integration Layer)

SAP Integration Suite (formerly CPI) — iFlow design and configuration for all external system integrations

BN4L connectivity setup: carrier collaboration flows, freight order tendering, tracking event consumption, carrier portal provisioning

Event Mesh configuration for real-time event-driven patterns (delivery confirmation → billing trigger, carrier status → TM event update)

API Management setup for REST/OData endpoints used by carrier portals, mobile apps, and third-party systems

BTP subaccount architecture, IDP/SSO configuration for external carrier users

Carrier EDI Integration

EDI message mapping and testing: 204 (Load Tender), 990 (Response), 214 (Shipment Status), 210 (Freight Invoice)

EDI partner profile configuration per carrier — message format validation, acknowledgment handling, error/exception workflow

Coordination with carrier IT departments during integration testing — you will be on calls with carrier EDI teams troubleshooting message failures

External System Integration

FourKites / project44 → SAP TM: real-time GPS tracking event consumption via BN4L connector, ETA updates, and exception alerting

PC Miler and SMC3: distance/duration determination service integration (API calls via BTP or direct connection)

Technical Foundation

System landscape management: dev, quality, production environment setup coordination with Basis

Transport management for TM configuration objects

Performance analysis for high-volume batch processing (CONA processes 160,000+ daily sales orders — TM background jobs for planning, tendering, and settlement must handle this throughput)

Technical troubleshooting across the full integration chain — you’re the escalation point when something breaks between systems

Must-Have Experience

2+ SAP TM implementations with significant integration responsibility — not just TM-internal config, but building the bridges between TM and surrounding systems

DRFOUT master data replication setup between S/4HANA and decentral TM — hands-on experience with replication models, filters, and error handling

SAP BTP Integration Suite (CPI) — iFlow development, message mapping, error handling, and monitoring. This is the middleware backbone and you must be fluent in it.

EDI integration for carrier communication — X12 message mapping (204/990/214/210), partner profile configuration, and end-to-end testing with live carriers

SOAP/XI and RFC-based integration patterns between SAP systems

Experience with at least one external system integration in a TM context (visibility platform, load optimizer, map provider, or WMS)

Debugging skills across the integration chain — you need to trace a failed transaction from the originating system through middleware to the target system, identify the break point, and fix it

Understanding of SAP transport management and system landscape architecture
