About The Position

CareFirst is seeking a Senior Software Engineer for ERP Procurement Systems to own, enhance, integrate, and support the technology enabling source-to-pay and procure-to-pay operations. The immediate focus is the current production landscape, including SAP Ariba, Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS), supplier connectivity, catalogs, purchasing, invoicing, and downstream financial integrations. The role is platform flexible: it improves current reliability and business value while creating reusable integration, data, documentation, and control foundations for a future cloud ERP program that may include Workday, Oracle Cloud ERP, or another selected platform. The position combines hands-on engineering with procurement-process expertise and offers the opportunity to influence the long-term roadmap without a predetermined implementation date. It has no direct reports, but the engineer is expected to guide and mentor less experienced staff and may coordinate matrixed resources.
