In this role, you'll work with the latest SAP technologies, including ABAP on SAP S/4HANA, Fiori/UI5, RAP (Restful ABAP Programming), CAP (Cloud Application Programming), and SAP Business Technology Platform (BTP). You will collaborate with functional teams to deliver customized, scalable SAP solutions, applying expertise in ABAP Objects, CDS Views, AMDP, OData, and integration with both cloud and on-premise systems.

A key requirement of this role is alignment to the "clean core" principle and apply SAP Extensibility concepts such as side-by-side extensions and using BTP for custom development to maintain a clean SAP core where feasible. This position requires proficiency in SAP DevOps methodologies, including CI/CD pipelines, automated testing (ABAP Unit), and SAP ATC for quality control.

• Leverage S/4HANA development experience to implement scalable solutions, including OData development using CDS and AMDP, and workflow configuration, support, and debugging.
• Enforce to the "clean core" principle by decoupling custom code from SAP’s digital core, using released APIs, in-app extensibility, and key user extensibility options to ensure smooth upgrades and maintenance.
• Apply SAP’s 3-Tier Extensibility model, working with RAP (Restful ABAP Programming) and CAP (Cloud Application Programming) models to build robust, scalable, cloud-based solutions using SAP BTP.
• Develop user-friendly interfaces using SAP Fiori/UI5 and improve SAP applications using modern ABAP techniques, including CDS views, AMDP, Native SQL, ADBC, External Views, Text Search, and ALV on HANA.
• Collaborate with functional teams to capture requirements, create technical specifications, and implement SAP solutions aligned with business needs.
• Conduct code reviews and ensure alignment to SAP standard methodologies, using SAP quality tools like SAP ATC (ABAP Test Cockpit) for code inspection, optimization, and vulnerability detection.
• Leverage SAP BTP Build, SAP Business Application Studio and Joule to design, develop, extend, and optimize business processes.
• Implement SAP Fiori/UI5 applications and leverage SAP Build to enhance user experiences and improve application functionality.
• Maintain user documentation for all developed SAP solutions and ensure a smooth handover for future maintenance.
