• Partner with analytics teams on SAP Analytics Cloud (SAC) integrations and reporting where applicable.
• Troubleshoot complex issues across BPC, BW, and related integrations, driving root‑cause analysis and permanent fixes.
• Provide technical mentorship to junior engineers/analysts and help establish standards, patterns, and documentation.
• Collaborate with cross‑functional IT and business stakeholders to support releases, testing cycles, and production cutovers.

• Proven experience acting as a technical lead or engineering lead on SAP BPC projects or programs.

• Solid technical skills in:
  • BPC modelling, script logic, business rules, and data manager packages
  • Data integration between BPC and back‑end systems
• Excellent communication skills and the ability to work with finance, IT, and leadership stakeholders.
• Must be based in the Greater Los Angeles area or willing to relocate, with the ability to work onsite 1–2 days per week.

• Prior experience in a contract‑to‑hire or consulting capacity.
• Initial engagement will begin as a contract role, with a clear path to full‑time hire based on performance, fit, and business needs.
