- Administer users and access, troubleshoot authorisation issues,



and support internal and external security audits.
- Implement security hardening – SSO, SSL/SNC, certificates, security notes and audit logging.
- Support cutover, go-live and hypercare, and prepare technical runbooks, procedures and documentation.

SKILLS REQUIRED

1. SAP Basis Administration

- System administration – installation, client administration, background jobs, RFC destinations, spool and printer management, and system copies / refreshes.
- Monitoring and performance – work processes, dumps, system logs, OS / DB monitoring and performance tuning (SM50, ST22, SM21, ST06, ST03N).
- Maintenance – support packages, kernel upgrades, SPAM / SAINT and SAP Note implementation (SNOTE).

2. SAP HANA Database

- HANA administration – installation, backup and recovery, HANA System Replication (HSR), memory management and patching.
- Monitoring and troubleshooting using SAP HANA Cockpit and HANA Studio.

3. Upgrades & S/4HANA Conversion

- Software Update Manager (SUM), including Database Migration Option (DMO), and Maintenance Planner.
- S/4HANA conversion activities – Readiness Check, simplification item checks and technical downtime planning.

4. Transport & Change Management

- STMS / CTS configuration and transport management, and change management using SAP Solution Manager (ChaRM) or SAP Cloud ALM.

5. Fiori & Gateway

- SAP Fiori Launchpad and SAP Gateway setup (embedded or hub deployment), including catalogs, spaces and pages, and OData service activation.

6. SAP Security & Authorisations

- Role design – single, composite and derived roles using PFCG, Fiori business catalogs and roles, and SU24 authorisation defaults.

GOOD TO HAVE

- Knowledge of SAP GRC Access Control or SAP Cloud Identity Access Governance (IAG), and SAP Cloud Identity Services (IAS / IPS).

- Working knowledge of Linux / Windows administration and shell scripting.
- SAP certification in SAP S/4HANA System Administration or SAP HANA is preferred.

WHAT WE LOOK FOR

- Ownership. You take responsibility for system stability, security and outcomes, not just assigned tickets. When something is unclear or blocked, you work to resolve it rather than simply escalating it.
- Consulting mindset. You understand the business impact behind technical and access decisions, and are comfortable recommending a better architecture, process or control when you see one.
- Technical curiosity. You keep up with the evolution of SAP technology - S/4HANA, SAP HANA, RISE with SAP, Cloud ALM, cloud identity and access governance, BTP and automation and actively apply what is useful.
- Bias for action. You identify risks early, troubleshoot systematically under pressure and bring possible solutions rather than waiting for detailed instructions.
- Quality without handholding. You care about availability, performance, security, compliance and documentation, and can deliver reliable, audit-ready work independently.
- Team multiplier. You share knowledge, review others' work, mentor less-experienced colleagues and willingly step outside your immediate task when it helps the team or customer succeed.
- Clear communication. You can work directly with customers, infrastructure partners and distributed teams, explain technical and security decisions simply, and raise concerns early.
