About The Position
We are seeking an experienced SAP Application Developer expertise to design, develop, and support custom enhancements, integrations, and reports within large enterprise SAP landscapes. This role spans the full development lifecycle, including requirements analysis, technical design, hands-on coding, unit testing, performance tuning, and post-go-live support in close collaboration with functional consultants and business stakeholders. The ideal candidate will combine deep ABAP expertise — including core ABAP, ABAP OO, CDS views, AMDPs, and OData — with a strong understanding of S/4HANA architecture, Fiori integration, and clean-core principles that minimize technical debt and ease future upgrades.

- Five or more years of professional ABAP development experience, with significant time on S/4HANA.
- Strong hands-on expertise with ABAP OO, CDS views, AMDPs, and HANA-optimized ABAP.
- Solid experience building OData services and integrating with Fiori applications.
- Hands-on experience with enhancement frameworks (BADIs, user exits, implicit/explicit enhancements).
- Strong experience with integration technologies (IDoc, RFC, BAPI, Web Services).
- Solid understanding of SAP module data structures, including FI/CO, SD, MM, or PP, depending on the project area.
- Experience with performance tuning tools (SAT, ST05) and HANA diagnostic tools.
- Familiarity with SAP Solution Manager, ChaRM, and SAP transport management.
- Excellent troubleshooting, communication, and documentation skills.
Nice To Haves
- Experience with S/4HANA system conversions or greenfield implementations.
- Exposure to SAP BTP, ABAP RAP (RESTful ABAP Programming Model), or steampunk.
- Hands-on experience with Fiori/UI5 development.
- Familiarity with SAP CPI / Integration Suite.
- SAP-certified ABAP developer credentials.
Responsibilities
- Design and develop custom ABAP programs, enhancements, BAPIs, BADIs, user exits, and interfaces within SAP S/4HANA environments, following clean-core and modification-free principles wherever possible.
- Build performant CDS views, AMDPs, and HANA-optimized ABAP code that leverages code pushdown and takes full advantage of S/4HANA’s in-memory architecture.
- Develop and consume OData services and RESTful APIs to support Fiori applications and integrations with non-SAP systems.
- Implement SAP Gateway services, including service registration, modeling, and lifecycle management.
- Design and develop classical and interactive ALV reports, smart forms, Adobe forms, and modern Fiori-aligned output channels.
- Build and maintain integration interfaces using IDocs, RFC, BAPI, Web Services, and the SAP API Hub.
- Perform technical analysis of business requirements in collaboration with functional consultants, and translate them into well-documented technical designs.
- Conduct thorough unit testing, support functional and integration testing, and resolve defects raised during UAT and post-go-live hypercare.
- Lead performance tuning of ABAP code, SQL queries, and database access patterns, including the use of SAT, ST05, and HANA-specific diagnostic tools.
- Support S/4HANA upgrades, system conversions, and code remediation activities, including SCMON / UPL analysis and clean-core readiness assessments.
- Implement security best practices in custom developments, including authority checks, secure data handling, and compliance with internal SAP governance.
