Senior Engineer, Clinical Supply Chain (SAP ICSM)

Moderna • Cambridge, MA

16d • Hybrid

About The Position

The Role: Moderna is seeking a candidate to design, build, and support SAP ICSM capabilities that enable reliable, compliant clinical trial supply planning and operations. This role is a hands-on SAP engineer who will configure and extend ICSM, integrate ICSM’s cloud components on SAP BTP with SAP S/4HANA extensions, and partner with Clinical Supply Chain, Clinical Operations, Quality, and external partners (CMOs/3PLs) to deliver validated solutions in a regulated environment. Here’s What You’ll Do Configure and support SAP ICSM modules and processes (Study Management; Medication List, Planning & Forecasting; Manufacturing & Packaging; Distribution) to enable clinical supply execution and visibility. Partner with business stakeholders to translate protocol/study requirements into system design (e.g., study parameters, demand drivers, supply strategy, labeling/packaging needs, depot/site distribution workflows). Implement and maintain integrations between ICSM and the clinical supply ecosystem, including CTMS and IRT systems (enrollment/dispensing signals, randomization/blinding interfaces), as well as external stakeholders such as CMOs and 3PLs. Build and support the ICSM hybrid architecture: BTP-to-S/4 communication patterns (e.g., cloud connectivity, event-driven synchronization, API-based data exchange) and operational processes executed in SAP S/4HANA. Contribute to traceability and logistics enablement where applicable (e.g., integration touchpoints with SAP Advanced Track and Trace for Pharmaceuticals and/or GS1-based interfaces with partners). Lead technical delivery across the lifecycle: requirements, functional/technical design, build/configuration, test strategy and execution (unit/SIT/UAT), cutover, and hypercare. Operate within a validated (GxP) landscape: produce required documentation, support validation testing, manage changes through controlled processes, and ensure audit readiness. Provide L2/L3 support for ICSM, including incident triage, defect resolution, performance troubleshooting, and continuous improvement (enhancements, automation, monitoring). Collaborate closely with SAP platform, integration, and security teams to ensure solutions meet Moderna standards for identity/access, data protection, and operational resilience.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in computer science, Engineering, Information Systems, Supply Chain, or a related field (or equivalent experience).

• Solid understanding of the integration of SAP ICSM with SAP IBP, SAP S/4HANA, SAP MDG and SAP EWM (embedded)
• Hands-on experience with SAP S/4HANA logistics/manufacturing processes relevant to clinical supply execution (e.g., medication list, materials management, production, quality, warehousing/logistics).
• Experience operating in GxP/CSV contexts (documentation, testing evidence, change control, audit support).
• Strong communication and stakeholder management skills; ability to work cross-functionally with Clinical Supply Chain, Clinical Operations, Quality, and external partner

Nice To Haves

• Experience with SAP BTP services used in ICSM architectures (connectivity, integration, eventing) and Fiori-based application enablement.
