Summary An experienced SAP BTP and Basis Administrator to set up, configure, and manage the customer's BTP landscape and should have extensive work eperience in upgrading SAP S4/HANA systems from 1809 to higher versions. The candidate will be responsible for foundational platform administration — subaccounts, entitlements, security, connectivity, and service provisioning — enabling downstream teams to build and deploy CAP-based and AI Core-powered applications smoothly. Should be performing pre and post upgrade activities and executing tools such as SUM.

Key Responsibilities

BTP Landscape Setup

Set up and structure BTP global account, directories, and subaccounts aligned with landscape strategy (dev/test/prod)

Manage entitlements and quotas across services (Cloud Foundry runtime, HANA Cloud, AI Core, Application Autoscaler, Destination, Connectivity, etc.)

Configure XSUAA, role collections, and role-based access control for applications and end users

Set up and troubleshoot Cloud Connector for on-premise (ECC/S4HANA) connectivity, including handling network/proxy issues (e.g., DNS interception scenarios)

Provision and configure HANA Cloud instances, including authorization and HDI container setup

Configure Destination Service and Connectivity Service for backend and third-party integrations

Set up CI/CD pipelines or CTMS for promoting applications across landscape stages, including MTA extension descriptor management

Provision AI Core and related AI services (Orchestration Service, Document AI) and configure resource groups, scenarios, and deployments

Manage multi-tenant SaaS setup where applicable (SaaS Registry, tenant-mode XSUAA, subscriber connectivity)

S/4HANA Upgrade Support

Plan and execute S/4HANA technical upgrades from 1809 to higher target releases (2022/2023 or latest) using

SUM (Software Update Manager)

Perform pre-upgrade readiness checks: Maintenance Planner stack calculation,



SUM/DMO prerequisite checks, add-on compatibility, and custom code impact analysis

Execute upgrade phases via SUM (extraction, configuration, execution phases) including downtime optimization techniques (e.g., SUM with DMO, near-zero downtime options where applicable)

Coordinate with Basis/technical teams on OS/DB migration considerations if part of the upgrade scope (e.g., DMO with system move)

Manage post-upgrade activities: SPDD/SPAU adjustments, note corrections, regression testing coordination

Use tools such as SAP Readiness Check, Custom Code Migration app, and Simplification Item Catalog to assess upgrade impact

Document upgrade runbooks, rollback plans, and downtime schedules for customer sign-off

Ensure upgraded S/4HANA environment is correctly integrated with BTP (Cloud Connector, OData services, communication arrangements) post-upgrade

General

Monitor platform health, usage, and cost; enforce governance and naming conventions across both BTP and on-premise/cloud ERP layers

Collaborate with solution architects and development teams to translate application requirements into platform configuration

Maintain documentation of landscape architecture, configurations, upgrade history, and access policies

Required Skills & Experience

4+ years hands-on experience administering SAP BTP (Cloud Foundry environment)

3+ years hands-on experience executing S/4HANA upgrades using SUM , with at least one upgrade from release 1809 or earlier to a higher release

Strong knowledge of BTP cockpit:



subaccounts, entitlements, quotas, service instances

Experience with XSUAA, role collections, and OAuth-based security configuration

Hands-on experience with Cloud Connector setup and troubleshooting

Experience with HANA Cloud provisioning and authorization management

Practical experience with

SUM, DMO (Database Migration Option), Maintenance Planner, SAP Readiness Check, and Custom Code Migration tools

Familiarity with

SPDD/SPAU adjustment processes and post-upgrade testing coordination

Familiarity with CI/CD tools for SAP (CTMS, Cloud Transport Management, or Jenkins/GitHub Actions for MTA deployments)

Understanding of Destination and Connectivity services for hybrid integration scenarios

Working knowledge of SAP AI Core, AI Launchpad, or Orchestration Service (preferred, not mandatory)

Basic understanding of CAP (Cloud Application Programming) model and MTA deployment descriptors

Experience with multi-tenant SaaS setup on BTP (preferred)

Strong troubleshooting skills across networking, security, service binding, and upgrade-related issues

Nice to Have

Exposure to SAP Document AI or other AI/ML services on BTP

SAP BTP certification (Administrator or Extension Suite)

SAP Security

SAP Basis / Technical Consultant background with broader upgrade/migration project experience (e.g., ECC to S/4HANA conversions, not just version-to-version upgrades)

Experience supporting AI/agentic application rollouts

Familiarity with ABAP-to-BTP integration scenarios (OData, SOAP/SOAMANAGER)

Soft Skills

Ability to work independently in a rapid-paced, customer-facing setting

Strong documentation and communication skills for handoff to development and upgrade teams

Comfortable coordinating with customer's IT/security/Basis teams for access, downtime windows, and firewall requirements
