Target's Food Supply Chain is evolving at an incredible pace. We are constantly reimagining how we get the right product to the right guest even better, faster and more cost effectively than before. We are becoming more intelligent, automated and algorithmic in our decision-making, so that no matter how guests shop—in stores or on Target.com—we deliver the convenience and immediate gratification they demand and deserve. We are on a mission to win decisively over any competitor, with a seamless and superior guest service experience unlike any they can offer. Are you a critical thinker who seeks the root cause and can analyze both qualitatively and quantitatively? Are you a creative problem-solver who simplifies problems, quickly identifies solutions, commits to a plan and then positively influences others to execute it? If so, you will have success on one of our dynamic teams.
 

A role on the Network Strategy – Operations Strategy & Modernization Team within Food Supply Chain means being relentlessly focused on how we can optimize our temperature-controlled network to become more cost effective and improve the guest experience. Our teams work with the agility our mission requires, and we constantly come together to implement new processes in record time. We’re looking for exceptional people who are proactive, creative, independent, innovative, risk-savvy and comfortable working in varying degrees of ambiguity. You will work cross-functionally with experts from across F&B, GSCL, Technology and Stores to support co-creation of solutions to reduce labor cost, improve speed and quality for replenishment activities, and help define our future network design. You will help scope a broad set of initiatives and ideas to help identify the specific problem, potential impact, and the resources needed to solve; you’ll also be actively engaged in developing solutions alongside experts from across the organization including Field Operations, Operating Solutions Design, Store Operations, TTS, Inventory Management and Data Science.

As a Sr Systems Analyst, you will drive optimal performance and utilization of the Food Distribution Center (FDC) warehouse management system (WMS), configuration and the most efficient interaction between front and back end systems connected to the FDC WMS. This role will be responsible for supporting the FDC in daily WMS triage, defect resolution, and change management prioritization. In addition, they will work within a team that scopes, designs, configures, tests, and deploys the features and capabilities of warehouse management systems and integration with various technology systems across inbound, warehouse, and outbound processes. The position will work both directly within their assigned FDC location and across the enterprise to gather data, identify modernization opportunities, scope functional and process requirements, and create roadmaps to prioritize and implement solutions. This role will provide an ideal opportunity to work within a highly collaborative, cross-functional team managing across leadership and operational teams. You will facilitate communication and alignment between FSC, GSCL, and TTS teams on high profile initiatives to enable progress toward our goals.
