This is a remote position.

Our client, a global healthcare company, is looking for an Integration Lead who will design, build, and operate end-to-end integrations on SAP Integration Suite (CPI/Cloud Integration) to connect SAP S/4HANA with SAP and non-SAP systems across a regulated healthcare landscape. The role spans solution design, iFlow development, security & compliance, deployment, monitoring, and continuous improvement—working closely with functional (S/4, Ariba, HR), security/compliance, and business stakeholders. (Aligned with standard CPI lead responsibilities and scope.)

This is a 6-month contractual position with likelihood of extension. Candidates must be able to support the client's preferred EST and/or CET time zone.

Responsibilities

• Integration Solutions & Design: Translate business/interface requirements into scalable, secure iFlow designs using SAP Cloud Integration (mappings, transformations, routing, error handling).
• iFlow Development & Connectivity: Build and maintain integrations for S/4HANA and adjacent platforms (e.g., Ariba, SuccessFactors, external APIs/partner systems) using adapters such as HTTPS/REST/SOAP, SFTP, IDoc, OData; implement content modifiers, exception subprocesses, and message mappings (XML/XSLT/JSON).
• Operations & Monitoring: Own CPI monitoring, alerting, and defect triage; perform root-cause analysis, implement resiliency patterns (retries, DLQs), and optimize performance.
• Security & Compliance: Enforce secure integrations (OAuth2, Basic Auth, client certificates, Cloud Connector), align with GxP/21 CFR Part 11, data integrity, and privacy requirements (audit trails, segregation of duties).
• API & Event Enablement: Leverage API Management and (where applicable) Event Mesh/event-driven patterns to standardize external/internal integrations.
• Lifecycle & Delivery: Own transport/package management, documentation (HLD/LLD), unit/integration testing, cutover, and hyper-care; support CI/CD and version control where in place.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work with functional teams and developers (e.g., IDoc/Proxy, AIF, ABAP) to ensure robust back-end integration behavior and error handling.

Requirements

• 5–8+ years in enterprise integrations with 3+ years hands-on in SAP CPI/Cloud Integration (or CPI + prior PI/PO) designing and building iFlows at scale.
• Strong command of integration protocols (HTTPS/REST/SOAP, SFTP, IDoc, OData) and transformation (XML/XSLT/JSON); working knowledge of Groovy scripting.
• Experience integrating S/4HANA with SAP cloud apps (e.g., Ariba, SuccessFactors) and third-party systems (partners, vendors, legacy).
• Proven operations/monitoring expertise in CPI with structured incident & change management; strong debugging and performance tuning skills.
• Security know-how across OAuth2, certificates/keystores, IP allowlisting, Cloud Connector; awareness of GxP/Part 11 implications for integration logs and electronic records.
• Excellent documentation, stakeholder communication, and delivery ownership in multi-team programs.
• Collaboration with back-end teams on IDoc/Proxy/AIF patterns and error processing; basic ABAP debugging for integration issues.
• CI/CD knowledge (e.g., Git-based transports) and Agile delivery practices.
• Prior healthcare/life-sciences projects with CSV/CSA awareness.
• SAP BTP services exposure (Integration Suite, API Management, Event Mesh); familiarity with API Business Hub.

Education & Certifications

• Bachelor’s in Computer Science/IT or related discipline (Master’s a plus).
• SAP Integration Suite/CPI certification preferred; additional SAP certifications a plus.
