The Solution Architect for ERP Application Lifecycle (ALM) Processes, Framework and Tools is the primary technical authority responsible for architecting the transition from legacy SAP Solution Manager to a up-to-date, future-proof ALM ecosystem. In this role, you will lead the strategic design and operational excellence of the global "Requirements to Deploy" process, ensuring that our delivery pipeline remains robust during a period of significant technological shift.
Your core mission is to navigate the complexities of SAP’s Cloud ALM offering while maintaining the flexibility to custom-build proprietary solutions when standard tools lack the necessary influence on design or functional depth. As part of your daily remit, you will:
Architect the Pivot: Actively evaluate the functional gaps within SAP Cloud ALM and decide where the organization must "Build" rather than "Buy." You will be responsible for the high-level design of custom ALM modules (potentially on SAP BTP or other cloud-native platforms) to ensure our specific business requirements are met.
Design the "Requirements to Deploy" Lifecycle and Lead Technical Decisioning: You will orchestrate the end-to-end framework including Business Process Modelling, Requirements, Change, Transport, Release, Test, Defect and System Documentation Management. You are not just a tool user; you are the designer of the framework that enables these processes.
Govern Hybrid Landscapes: You will define the integration patterns required to link SAP-specific ALM components with the broader enterprise DevOps toolchain, ensuring a "clean core" strategy while managing the decommissioning of legacy SolMan/ChaRM environments.
