Overview

We are seeking a SAP Technical Business Analyst with deep S/4HANA supply chain expertise and a minimum of 7 years' experience to act as the bridge between SAP/ERP teams and Data & Analytics teams. The ideal candidate understands S/4HANA core data structures and CDS/VDM patterns, can translate business requirements into technical specifications, and ensures accuracy of data flows from SAP into downstream reporting and analytics.

Key Responsibilities

• Work with business stakeholders (supply chain, procurement, manufacturing, logistics) to elicit and document functional requirements and acceptance criteria.
• Translate functional requirements and SAP business logic into clear technical specifications for ERP and Data & Analytics teams.
• Design and validate data models and mappings from S/4HANA source tables (e.g., EKKO/EKPO, MARA/MARC, MATDOC, AUFK/AFKO, MDPS/MDEZ) to downstream reporting schemas.
• Develop and maintain SAP CDS Views and advise on VDM layering (Basic → Composite/Cube → Consumption) to support analytics and reporting needs.
• Lead data validation activities to ensure reconciliation and accuracy between SAP source data and downstream outputs (reports, data lake, BI layers).
• Support UAT cycles: prepare test cases, coordinate end users, manage defects and ensure successful sign-off.
• Collaborate with SAP functional/configuration teams, ABAP developers (where needed), and D&A engineers (Azure/Databricks/ETL) to deliver solutions.
• Produce and maintain clear documentation (requirements, technical specs, data lineage, test cases) and present status to stakeholders.
• Drive continuous improvement for data quality, reporting completeness, and integration patterns between ERP and analytics platforms.

Required Skills

• Having at least 6+ years of strong functional/technical knowledge of SAP S/4HANA, especially Supply Chain modules (MM, PP, SD, WM/EWM).
• Solid understanding of S/4HANA core data structures (e.g., EKKO/EKPO, MARA/MARC, MATDOC, AUFK/AFKO, MDPS/MDEZ) and how they feed downstream reporting/analytics.
• Experience with SAP CDS Views and Virtual Data Model (VDM) layering (Basic → Composite/Cube → Consumption).
• Proven technical BA skills — able to translate SAP business logic and functional requirements into technical specs, bridging the SAP/IT ERP team and the IT D&A/Business Data teams.
• Supply Chain experience is a must.
• Experience with data validation, ensuring accuracy between SAP source systems and downstream outputs.
• Familiarity with Azure/Databricks is a plus, but the core priority for this role is deep SAP S/4HANA + BA expertise.
• Experience supporting UAT cycles, with strong documentation and stakeholder management skills.

Preferred Skills

• Familiarity with Azure data platform and Databricks or similar data lake/processing technologies.
• Experience with BI tools (Power BI, Tableau) or Azure Synapse for analytics consumption.
• Exposure to ABAP or experience working closely with ABAP developers for extraction/transform tasks.
• SAP S/4HANA certification or supply chain functional certifications.
• Experience with Agile delivery methodologies and the SAP Activate framework.
