• Manage offshore and nearshore delivery teams, ensuring adherence to design and performance standards.
• Support cut‑over, reconciliation and hyper‑care, ensuring accuracy of data loads and analytics outcomes.
• Provide thought leadership on data architecture evolution, such as readiness for BW Bridge to DataSphere migration.

Qualifications

• Demonstrated experience delivering SAP BW/4HANA in large‑scale S/4HANA transformation or regulated environments.
• Deep understanding of data modelling, ETL frameworks, data staging and harmonisation.
• Hands‑on experience with BW/4HANA Objects, HANA modelling and native SQL scripting.
• Familiarity with BTP data integration services (CPI‑DS, SDI, SDA) and hybrid data architecture.
• Integration experience with SAP SAC, DataSphere and S/4HANA Embedded Analytics.
• Strong understanding of data governance, master‑data alignment and audit traceability.
• Exposure to data migration and reconciliation strategies for Finance, HR and Logistics datasets.
• Excellent analytical skills and proven ability to troubleshoot performance issues in data loads.

Tools & Methodologies

• SAP Analytics Cloud and DataSphere integration.
• Solution Manager, JIRA, Confluence, Signavio for governance and collaboration.
• SAP Activate and Agile delivery methodologies.

Education & Certifications

• Degree in Computer Science, Data Engineering or IT.
• SAP Certified Application Associate – SAP BW/4HANA or Data Warehousing preferred.
• Data‑management or cloud‑integration certifications (e.g. SAP BTP, Azure Data Factory) advantageous.

Stakeholder & Soft Skills

• Strong client‑facing communication and data storytelling capability.
• Ability to lead workshops with business stakeholders, architects and analytics teams.
• Detail‑oriented, quality‑driven and comfortable working in secure, multi‑environment programmes.
