Job Description - SAP S/4HANA Technical Developer

Role Overview

This role is aligned to a large global SAP S/4HANA transformation program delivered using SAP Activate, a Greenfield+ implementation approach, SAP S/4HANA RISE PCE, Fit-to-Standard principles, and a Clean Core delivery model. The role is expected to support formal design, build, test, deploy, cutover, hypercare, and knowledge transfer activities across a multi-wave enterprise implementation. The position requires strong documentation discipline, close collaboration with functional and technical workstreams, and the ability to operate within structured governance, change control, validation, and deliverable approval processes.

The SAP S/4HANA Technical Developer will design, develop, test, document, and support technical objects for a global SAP S/4HANA transformation program. The role is responsible for delivering clean-core aligned technical solutions across RICEFW objects including reports, CDS views, enhancements, conversions, forms, labels, workflows, custom Fiori-enabling services, and approved technical extensions. The developer will work closely with functional teams, architects, integration developers, Fiori developers, BTP developers, data migration teams, security teams, and testing teams to convert approved business designs into scalable SAP technical solutions. The role must be able to evaluate when a requirement should be addressed through standard SAP functionality, configuration, Key User Extensibility, Developer Extensibility, RAP-based services, BTP side-by-side extensibility, or formal RICEFW development.

Day to Day Job Duties

The selected resource will be expected to perform the following activities on a daily or weekly basis, depending on the project phase:

• Analyze functional specifications, approved design decisions, and process requirements, then translate them into robust technical specifications and development objects aligned with SAP S/4HANA best practices.
• Develop and support ABAP objects in SAP S/4HANA using modern ABAP syntax, CDS views, AMDP where applicable, OData services, Adobe Forms, enhancements, conversions, workflows, labels, and reporting objects.
• Apply SAP S/4HANA Clean Core principles by avoiding core modifications and using released SAP APIs, released CDS views, approved enhancement options, Key User Extensibility, Developer Extensibility, and side-by-side extension patterns where appropriate.
• Design and build RAP-based backend services, behavior definitions, behavior implementations, validations, determinations, actions, service definitions, and service bindings to support transactional and analytical applications.
• Support Key User Extensibility for custom fields, custom logic, UI adaptation, form adaptation, custom business objects, and lightweight process extensions when standard SAP tools are sufficient.
• Support Developer Extensibility in SAP S/4HANA using upgrade-safe ABAP extension patterns, released objects, and lifecycle-governed development techniques.
• Develop custom reports and CDS-based data models where standard S/4HANA, SAC, or delivered reporting capabilities do not fully meet approved business needs.
• Develop and support Adobe Forms for finance, procurement, sales, logistics, HR, and compliance outputs, including invoices, purchase orders, credit/debit memos, dunning letters, payment advices, delivery notes, packing lists, export/customs documents, and HR letters.
• Develop and support label-related technical objects for pallet, carton, item, traceability, vendor, packaging, and compliance labeling requirements, including integration with label management applications where applicable.
• Support conversion and migration-related technical objects for master data and open transactional data, including finance, vendors, customers, materials, BOMs, routings, work centers, inventory balances, quality masters, employees, organizational structures, and open transactions.
• Participate in RICEFW inventory refinement, complexity assessment, technical design reviews, code reviews, unit testing, defect triage, transport readiness, and deployment planning.
• Support SIT, UAT, security testing, regression testing, performance testing, cutover rehearsals, production cutover, hypercare stabilization, and COE/support handover.

• Key User Extensibility: Experience with custom fields, custom logic, custom business objects, UI adaptations, form adaptations, and lightweight extensibility options.
• Developer Extensibility: Experience building upgrade-safe ABAP extensions using released APIs, released CDS views, approved enhancement points, and clean-core compliant development patterns.
• Clean Core: Strong understanding of SAP Clean Core, in-app extensibility, side-by-side extensibility, and how to select the right extension option based on business need, complexity, lifecycle impact, and maintainability.
• RICEFW Delivery: Strong experience designing, building, unit testing, documenting, and supporting reports, interfaces support objects, conversions, enhancements, forms, labels, workflows, CDS views, and custom technical objects.
• Testing and Defect Management: Experience supporting SIT, UAT, regression testing, performance testing, cutover, and hypercare defect resolution.
