Senior SAP ABAP Consultant (S/4HANA Cloud) — End-User / In-House IT
Delhi / Greater Noida
We're looking for a Senior ABAP Consultant to join our in-house SAP team supporting an S/4HANA Cloud landscape. This is a long-term, in-house role — not project-based consulting — covering a balanced mix of production support and ongoing enhancement work. You'll operate within a clean-core philosophy, building extensions the right way rather than touching standard objects, and you'll be a key technical partner to business and functional teams.
Design and build custom extensions using ABAP Cloud (RAP – RESTful ABAP Programming Model)
Develop CDS views, behavior definitions, and OData/SAP Graph APIs for Fiori and external consumption
Work within Key User Extensibility and Developer Extensibility frameworks as appropriate to the landscape edition
Build and maintain integrations (SAP Integration Suite / CPI, APIs) with non-SAP systems
Partner with functional consultants (MM, SD, FI/CO, etc.) to convert business requirements into extension-safe technical designs
Participate in release cycle testing — S/4HANA Cloud's quarterly updates require proactive regression testing of custom extensions
Contribute to the clean-core roadmap — flagging legacy custom code / modifications for remediation
Provide L2/L3 technical support for custom extensions, interfaces, and integrations
Perform root-cause analysis on production issues and implement permanent fixes within clean-core guardrails
Support critical business cycles (period-end, month-end) with on-call technical assistance
Manage transports and releases through the cloud ALM / transport management system
Monitor and troubleshoot extensibility apps and custom CDS views/APIs for performance issues
6–10+ years of ABAP experience, with at least 2+ years specifically on S/4HANA Cloud or ABAP Cloud
Strong hands-on experience with:
SAP BTP exposure (since most S/4HANA Cloud extensions increasingly live there)
SAP Integration Suite (CPI) for integration scenarios
RAP (RESTful ABAP Programming Model) — behavior definitions, behavior implementations, projections
CDS Views (including annotations for Fiori Elements)
ABAP Cloud development model and released APIs/BAPIs (vs. classic unrestricted ABAP)
OData services / SAP API Business Hub consumption
Understanding of clean-core principles and side-by-side vs. in-app extensibility trade-offs
Experience with SAP Business Application Studio (BAS) and/or Eclipse-based ADT for cloud development
Familiarity with SAP Cloud ALM or equivalent for transport/change management in cloud landscapes
Working knowledge of at least one functional module's data flow (MM/SD/FI preferred)
Fiori/UI5 front-end exposure (even if not building UIs directly, understanding consumption side)
Prior experience with an S/4HANA Cloud version upgrade cycle (handling quarterly release regression)
Exposure to Agile/Scrum delivery (Jira-based backlog, sprint-based enhancement requests)
Comfortable with long-term ownership of a live production system rather than project handoffs
Able to push back constructively on requests that would break clean-core principles, and propose compliant alternatives
Strong stakeholder management — direct engagement with business users and functional teams
Documentation discipline, especially around custom extensions and their business justification
Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field
SAP certification in ABAP for S/4HANA or ABAP Cloud is a plus
Prior in-house/end-user experience (vs. only SI/consulting background) strongly preferred
