You will succeed in

A WMS that aligns with practice begins with understanding what customers and colleagues need. Translating those needs into solutions for our new warehouse in Almelo and our Eastern Netherlands region: you will contribute to this.

How do you do this? As a senior WMS engineer, you oversee the entire process flow and ask probing questions until the requirements and project scope are clear. You translate process designs into functional and technical application designs within the CargoWrite WMS suite, using Blue Yonder Dispatcher. For this, you work closely with project managers, process engineers, IT teams, and customers. You take the substantive lead, act as a point of reference for colleagues, and personally participate in building and testing solutions. You will achieve this by:

  • identifying customer needs and determining requirements and scope, while looking across departments and assessing the impact on processes and systems;
  • translating process flows into functional and technical application designs and building and configuring WMS solutions within CargoWrite;
  • performing FAT testing and supervising system, integration, and acceptance testing, customer implementations, and go-lives;
  • providing substantive direction to WMS projects and changes, sharing your expertise, and ensuring quality, documentation, and performance.

Within DSV, your team stands out for its willingness to help one another, share knowledge, and celebrate successes together. You will strengthen a team of 3 senior colleagues, in which everyone contributes to building and testing solutions. You will receive trust and responsibility, with the space to arrive at the right design together with customers and colleagues. Your base is Almelo. Additionally, you will contribute to projects for other warehouses in the Eastern Netherlands and be present there when the project requires it.
