We are seeking a highly experienced Replenishment Functional Analyst with deep QA expertise to support a fast-paced retail environment. This role requires a hands-on testing leader with strong functional knowledge of replenishment processes and solid exposure to OMS environments.

• Analyze automated replenishment outputs including suggested purchase orders, allocation flows, store/DC inventory projections, and exception handling.

• Create detailed test scenarios, scripts, traceability matrices, and validation documentation.

• Validate end-to-end data flows between replenishment systems, OMS, ERP, and downstream execution systems.

• Identify and document defects with clear root cause analysis and partner with technical teams for resolution.

• Support UAT cycles, business validation sessions, and cross-functional sign-offs.

• Collaborate with supply chain, merchandising, planning, and IT teams to ensure system accuracy and operational alignment.

• Recommend process improvements to enhance replenishment accuracy, responsiveness, and system efficiency.

Required Skills & Experience

• Strong hands-on QA experience in replenishment environments (functional, regression, integration, UAT).

• Deep understanding of:

  • Store & DC replenishment logic

  • Inventory planning methodologies

  • Purchasing workflows

  • Allocation & order management interactions

• Proven ability to validate system parameters, replenishment logic, and automated outputs.

• Strong OMS background with clear understanding of order lifecycle, inventory visibility, and fulfillment integration.

• Demonstrated experience working in fast-paced, reactive retail environments.

• Excellent documentation, communication, and stakeholder management skills.

• Willingness and ability to relocate to Nashville, TN.

Preferred (Not Mandatory)

• Experience with Relex replenishment modules.

• Exposure to other retail planning platforms.

• SQL proficiency for validation and data analysis.

• Test automation experience (Selenium, Python, automation frameworks).

Candidate Profile We Are Targeting

We are looking for a high-caliber QA professional who:

• Has real functional replenishment expertise (not just generic testing).

• Understands replenishment logic deeply enough to challenge outputs and identify systemic risk.

• Has strong OMS integration knowledge.

• Can operate independently and bring credibility with client stakeholders.

• Is open to relocation and committed to onshore collaboration.

We are intentionally keeping this search narrow and selective.
