Job DescriptionJob Description

• Responsible for the end-to-end analysis, configuration, development, testing, delivery, and support of SAP Master Data Governance solutions. The role combines SAP MDG functional expertise with hands-on ABAP development, with a primary focus on Finance Master Data and the ability to deliver assigned work within defined standards, methods, and priorities. SAP MDG provides change-request-based processing with integrated workflow, staging, approval, activation, and distribution; the current backfill intent specifically requires engineers who can perform MDG functional, development, and testing activities end to end.
• Analyze business requirements, user stories, process flows, data attributes, and interface mappings, translating them into clear SAP MDG functional and technical solutions.
• Configure and enhance SAP MDG capabilities, including data models, change requests, workflows, user interfaces, validations, derivations, business rules, and replication settings
• Design, develop, and unit-test low- to medium-complexity SAP MDG custom solutions using ABAP, including enhancements, BAdIs, service or proxy extensions, reports, and background-processing logic where required.
• Prepare functional and technical specifications, solution documentation, effort estimates, dependencies, acceptance criteria, and implementation instructions for assigned work packages.
• Plan and execute unit, functional, system, integration, regression, and defect-validation testing; maintain test evidence and support business or user-acceptance testing.
• Troubleshoot MDG configuration, ABAP, workflow, data-quality, replication, and integration issues across development, testing, deployment, and production-support activities.
• Support master-data governance and quality controls through field validation, derivation rules, duplicate prevention, reference-data alignment, mapping checks, reconciliation, and corrective-action analysis.
• Collaborate with integration engineers on inbound and outbound SAP interfaces, including message mapping, error handling, acknowledgments, monitoring, and controlled replication using relevant SAP integration patterns.
• Maintain accurate solution designs, configuration records, code documentation, test scripts, deployment information, runbooks, and support knowledge.
• Work with product owners, business stakeholders, architects, developers, testers, data teams, and integration teams to deliver prioritized backlog items on time and in accordance with architecture, governance, quality, and engineering standards.
