Solution Architect – WMS

Position Description
CGI's Winnipeg team is seeking an experienced Solution Architect / Implementation Specialist with deep, hands-on experience implementing Blue Yonder Warehouse Management System solutions. This role is designed for professionals who have taken WMS implementations from design through configuration and go‑live and can provide pragmatic architectural governance while collaborating closely with business stakeholders, client IT teams, and system integrators.

Implementation Oversight & Best Practices 
-Partner with client IT and business teams to ensure optimal configuration of warehouse processes including inbound, outbound, inventory, labor, yard, and automation interfaces
-Provide hands‑on technical insight when needed, including deep dives into configuration, troubleshooting, and performance optimization

Integration & Technical Governance 
-Define and oversee integration architecture between Blue Yonder WMS and adjacent systems

Stakeholder Collaboration & Enablement 
-Act as a trusted advisor to business leaders, operations, IT teams, and SIs throughout the program lifecycle
-Facilitate design reviews, configuration workshops, and risk assessments
-Mentor client teams on Blue Yonder WMS capabilities, limitations, and operational best practices
