- Support planning activities for data migrations, system carve-outs, and upgrades and transformations.
- Collaborate with technical and functional teams to align recommendations with project goals.
- Provide input on database-level considerations across Oracle, Microsoft SQL Server and SAP HANA.
- Assist in analysing ABAP-related performance issues (traces, dumps and inefficient programs).
Requirements
- Strong background in SAP Basis architecture and performance optimisation.
- Experience across multiple SAP versions (ECC, S/4HANA, etc.).
- Deep understanding of database platforms: Oracle, Microsoft SQL Server and SAP HANA.
- Working knowledge of ABAP performance analysis.
- Proven experience in SAP projects involving data migrations, carve-outs and system upgrades.
- Ability to assess complex landscapes and provide clear, actionable recommendations.
- Strong understanding of key SAP tables and data structures – particularly the large-volume tables that dominate performance and data-intensive operations:
Nice to have
- Experience in S/4HANA conversions or transformation programmes.
- Exposure to SAP functional processes (FI, MM, SD, etc.).
- Experience advising clients in high-impact or large-scale environments.
- Strong communication and stakeholder-management skills.
Additional details
