Senior SAP ABAP Consultant

Role Description We're looking for a Senior ABAP Consultant to join our in-house SAP team supporting an S/4HANA Cloud landscape. This is a long-term, in-house role not project-based consulting covering a balanced mix of production support and ongoing enhancement work. You will operate within a clean-core philosophy, building extensions the right way rather than touching standard objects, and you will be a key technical partner to business and functional teams. This is a great opportunity to build a career in the SAP ABAP domain. Interested candidates looking to grow in SAP ABAP are encouraged to apply. This role offers hands-on exposure to real-world SAP ABAP projects.

Key Responsibilities Enhancement / Development (70%): Design and build custom extensions using ABAP Cloud (RAP RESTful ABAP Programming Model). Develop CDS views, behavior definitions, and OData / SAP Graph APIs for Fiori and external consumption. Work within Key User Extensibility and Developer Extensibility frameworks as appropriate to the landscape edition. Build and maintain integrations (SAP Integration Suite / CPI, APIs) with non-SAP systems. Partner with functional consultants (MM, SD, FI/CO, etc.) to convert business requirements into extension-safe technical designs. Participate in release-cycle testing S/4HANA Cloud's quarterly updates require proactive regression testing of custom extensions. Contribute to the clean-core roadmap, flagging legacy custom code / modifications for remediation. Support (30%): Provide L2/L3 technical support for custom extensions, interfaces, and integrations. Perform root-cause analysis on production issues and implement permanent fixes within clean-core guardrails. Support critical business cycles (period-end, month-end) with on-call technical assistance. Manage transports and releases through the Cloud ALM / transport management system. Monitor and troubleshoot extensibility apps and custom CDS views / APIs for performance issues. Job Requirements 610+ years of ABAP experience, with at least 2+ years specifically on S/4HANA Cloud or ABAP Cloud. Strong hands-on experience with RAP (RESTful ABAP Programming Model) behavior definitions, behavior implementations, and projections. CDS Views (including annotations for Fiori Elements) and the ABAP Cloud development model with released APIs/BAPIs (vs. classic unrestricted ABAP). Data services / SAP API Business Hub consumption, and SAP BTP exposure (as most S/4HANA Cloud extensions increasingly live there). SAP Integration Suite (CPI) for integration scenarios. Understanding of clean-core principles and side-by-side vs. in-app extensibility trade-offs. Experience with SAP Business Application Studio (BAS) and/or Eclipse-based ADT for cloud development. Familiarity with SAP Cloud ALM or equivalent for transport / change management in cloud landscapes. Working knowledge of at least one functional module's data flow (MM / SD / FI preferred). Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field; SAP certification in ABAP for S/4HANA or ABAP Cloud is a plus. Prior in-house / end-user experience (vs. only SI / consulting background) strongly preferred. Good to have: Fiori / UI5 front-end exposure (understanding the consumption side), prior experience with an S/4HANA Cloud version upgrade cycle, and exposure to Agile / Scrum delivery (Jira-based backlog, sprint-based enhancement requests). Soft skills: comfortable with long-term ownership of a live production system; able to push back constructively on requests that would break clean-core principles and propose compliant alternatives; strong stakeholder management with business users and functional teams; and documentation discipline around custom extensions and their business justification.
