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.

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




• 6–10+ 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).
• OData 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.
• Valuable 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.
