SAP S/4HANA Techno Functional Consultant

Job Title: SAP S/4HANA Techno Functional Consultant

Location: Washington, DC (Prefer Local)

Duration: Long Term

Hybrid Onsite: 4 Days onsite per week from Day1.

Client is undergoing a multi-year, multi-stage transformation from SAP ECC on-premise to SAP S/4HANA on-premise. The program involves a large volume of custom ABAP code built to support specialized business processes:

1. Stage 1, this code must be adapted for compatibility with S/4HANA s simplified data structures and programming model.
2. Stage 2, it will be re-engineered using clean-core principles and cloud-ready ABAP (strict ABAP) within S/4HANA leveraging frameworks such as RAP, CDS, and AMDP.
3. Stage 3, selected components may shift to SAP BTP using side-by-side extensibility where it provides architectural or scalability benefits.

This is a techno-functional role that requires strong hands-on development capabilities combined with deep process understanding. The selected candidate will be expected to interpret functional requirements, participate in fit-gap assessments, and independently deliver scalable, upgrade-safe solutions that align with SAP s architectural direction.

The role demands end-to-end accountability from technical design and performance optimization to security adaptation and clean extensibility. Candidates must be confident problem-solvers, effective collaborators across business and IT teams, and able to demonstrate their capabilities through a hands-on coding assessment during the evaluation process.

Minimum Requirements-

Candidates must meet all of the following:

• 15+ years of SAP ABAP development in ECC
• 7+ years of S/4HANA development experience
• RAP application delivery in S/4HANA or SAP BTP ABAP
• Code remediation, simplification, and HANA optimization expertise

Key Responsibilities:

• Analyze and remediate legacy custom code to align with S/4HANA simplifications, strict ABAP standards, and clean core principles
• Reengineer existing ABAP programs for performance optimization on HANA using CDS, AMDP, and SQL tuning
• Design and develop RAP-based services for transactional applications with upgrade-safe, extensible architecture
• Build and expose OData services (V2/V4) to support Fiori apps and external system integration
• Document functional and technical specifications with clarity, precision, and traceability
• Walk through designs and specifications with stakeholders, incorporating feedback and gaining buy-in
• Design end-to-end technical solutions based on functional requirements and simplification impacts
• Develop and execute unit tests to validate logic and ensure readiness for integration testing
• Migrate and adapt custom logic to the new S/4HANA data model (e.g., ACDOCA, MATDOC, BP)
• Replace legacy BDCs and screen logic with modern BAPIs and OData APIs
• Participate in fit-gap workshops, advising on standard vs. extensible approaches
• Implement extensibility using Key User, On-Stack, or Side-by-Side models, based on solution context
• Ensure compliance with security standards, including DCL-based and RAP-based authorization
• Maintain code lifecycle discipline using Git, ATC checks, clean ABAP, and peer reviews
• Bridge business and technical teams, providing insight into how design choices affect process outcomes
