In this role, you will connect business processes, enterprise systems, and data into a unified experience that enables automation, analytics, and AI at scale. You will map how work moves across functions, systems, and teams, uncover opportunities to simplify and standardize how work is done, and create the foundations required for intelligent, AI-driven decision making. This is not a traditional transformation role. We are looking for a builder and systems thinker who can move seamlessly between business strategy, technology architecture, process optimization, and hands-on solution development. You will help shape how users interact with our digital ecosystem while establishing the process, system, and data frameworks that will power future AI capabilities. What Makes This Role Different * Build the digital foundation that powers automation, analytics, AI, and next-generation user experiences across a global organization. * Join a high-performing, data-driven team that values curiosity, direct feedback, rapid learning, and evidence-based decision making. * Move quickly from idea to impact through a build-and-learn mindset, testing, refining, and scaling solutions through rapid experimentation and iterative delivery. * Drive technology adoption directly within the business, partnering closely with users and stakeholders to deliver measurable value. * Play a critical role in connecting the team's digital, analytics, process, and AI initiatives into a unified ecosystem that accelerates transformation at scale. What You'll Do * Map and connect the end-to-end ecosystem of processes, systems, data, analytics, and user experiences across Global Supplier Management & Procurement. * Take an end-to-end view of how work flows across functions, systems, and teams, ensuring the overall user experience is optimized rather than individual processes or applications in isolation. * Orchestrate the connection between business priorities, digital initiatives, reporting, applications, and our Databricks-powered data foundation to accelerate business value, automation, and future AI capabilities. * Drive alignment, accountability, and performance across business, operations, and technology stakeholders by establishing transparent metrics and ensuring capabilities deliver expected business outcomes. * Turn ideas into impact through hands-on development of prototypes, analytics, automation, and scalable solutions using SQL, Databricks, Power Platform, Celonis, SAP, and AI-enabled technologies. Who You Are You enjoy understanding how business processes, systems, data, and people interact to create outcomes. Rather than accepting complexity, you look for opportunities to simplify, connect, and scale. You are equally comfortable analyzing data, mapping end-to-end user experiences, evaluating system interactions, influencing stakeholders, and building prototype solutions that demonstrate value. You combine strategic thinking with hands-on execution and enjoy turning ideas into working capabilities. You thrive in high-performing environments where decisions are driven by data, feedback is candid and constructive, and the best ideas win regardless of where they originate. You move quickly, embrace experimentation, and focus on creating momentum rather than bureaucracy. Most importantly, you believe great digital experiences are built on connected processes, trusted data, and scalable technology foundations. You are excited by the opportunity to help shape the future of Global Sourcing & Procurement through automation, analytics, and AI-enabled innovation., SAP ERP Curiosity Analytics Leadership Consulting Automation Innovation Compassion Databricks Scalability Procurement Prototyping Data Analysis Accountability Rapid Learning Global Sourcing Business Process Computer Science SAP Applications Telephone Skills Product Management Workday (Software) Business Valuation Strategic Thinking Automation Systems Business Strategies Process Improvement Business Priorities Business Partnering Business Operations Information Systems Supplier Management Process Engineering User Experience (UX) Contingent Workforce Process Optimization Technology Ecosystems Operational Efficiency Digital Transformation Artificial Intelligence Microsoft Power Platform SQL (Programming Language) Business Process Outsourcing Business Process Development Technology Adoption Lifecycle Enterprise Application Software +0 Associate Director - Digital Transformation Merck & Co., Inc North Wales, PA*On-Site SAP ERP Curiosity Analytics Leadership Consulting Automation Innovation Compassion Databricks Scalability Procurement Prototyping Data Analysis Accountability Rapid Learning Global Sourcing Business Process Computer Science SAP Applications Telephone Skills Product Management Workday (Software) Business Valuation Strategic Thinking Automation Systems Business Strategies Process Improvement Business Priorities Business Partnering Business Operations Information Systems Supplier Management Process Engineering User Experience (UX) Contingent Workforce Process Optimization Technology Ecosystems Operational Efficiency Digital Transformation Artificial Intelligence Microsoft Power Platform SQL (Programming Language) Business Process Outsourcing Business Process Development Technology Adoption Lifecycle Enterprise Application Software +0 Director, Digital Transformation Leader (Hybrid) Merck & Co., Inc West Point, PA*Hybrid Operations Leadership Governance Innovation Compassion Supply Chain Data Privacy Data Analysis Life Sciences Biotechnology Business Case Pharmaceuticals Clinical Trials Risk Management ## Related Videos - [Destigmatizing the Workplace: Building Real Inclusion](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1492-destigmatizing-the-workplace-building-real-inclusion) - [Headless by Design: Building Enterprise Systems That Agents Can Actually Use](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100092-headless-by-design-building-enterprise-systems-that-agents-can-actually-use) - [Cutting LLM Costs Without Cutting Quality: How to Beat Proprietary LLMs with Fine-Tuned Open Source](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100151-cutting-llm-costs-without-cutting-quality-how-to-beat-proprietary-llms-with-fine-tuned-open-source) - [From Global Capability Centers to AI-Powered Command Centers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100096-from-global-capability-centers-to-ai-powered-command-centers) - [OLTP in the Lakehouse: Redefining Data for AI Workloads](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/2038-oltp-in-the-lakehouse-redefining-data-for-ai-workloads) - [How Visionary Leaders Drive Transformation](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1701-how-visionary-leaders-drive-transformation) ## Related Articles - [Highest Paying Tech Companies for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/220-highest-paying-tech-companies-for-developers) - [Navigating the AI Shift](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/629-navigating-the-ai-shift) - [Best Coding Boot Camps in Germany](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/237-best-coding-boot-camps-in-germany) - [Why Attend a Developer Event in 2026?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/688-why-attend-a-developer-event-in-2026) - [Résumé-Driven Development: How IT trends affect the job market for software developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/59-resume-driven-development-how-it-trends-affect-the-job-market-for-software-developers) - [System change: restart as developer?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/39-system-change-restart-as-developer)
