SAP S4 Hana Developer - NO C2C

Our client is a rapidly growing, highly technical company with a multi-year SAP S/4HANA transformation underway. Their environment is modern and greenfield - live since 2022 and intentionally built on clean-core principles - which means there is real opportunity to shape how the platform grows rather than inherit someone else's technical debt.

They are seeking a contract-to-hire SAP S/4HANA Developer to serve as the only dedicated, full-time development resource on their SAP team. This person will own the complete development stack: ABAP back-end, Fiori front-end, and BTP integrations. Day to day, that means working through a growing backlog of enhancements and automation requests, taking on coding tasks tied to major initiatives in procure-to-pay, inventory, and materials, and progressively assuming ownership of work currently handled by an external development partner.

This role is built for a developer who is energized by ownership and comfortable operating without a large team around them. You will work alongside a Functional Architect and other SAP team members, but the technical execution is yours. The ability to self-direct, figure things out, and bring an "I'll learn it" mindset to unfamiliar territory is just as important as deep technical knowledge.

The role is remote-friendly; offices are located in Broomfield, CO and Brooklyn Park, MN, and proximity to either is a plus. Candidates must be authorized to work in the United States without current or future visa sponsorship.

• ResponsibilitiesOwn end-to-end delivery of SAP development work - from technical design and estimation through build, unit testing, transport, release, and production stabilization.
• Develop HANA-optimized, clean-core ABAP solutions including ABAP OO enhancements, reports, forms, CDS views, and OData services.
• Build and support Fiori and SAPUI5 applications and UI extensions that reduce manual effort and improve how business users interact with the SAP platform.
• Contribute to BTP-based extension and integration work, serving as the primary owner of integration artifacts as the team's development capacity grows.
• Produce complete technical design documentation: specifications, solution approaches, estimates, dependencies, risk logs, and clean-core assessments.
• Deliver quality and governance artifacts including ATC/SCI results and remediation, HANA performance evidence, and authorization and security documentation.
• Support SIT and UAT through defect triage, root-cause analysis, test data preparation, and stabilization of integrated workflows.
• Manage transport plans, release notes, hypercare windows, and handover packages including runbooks and operational documentation.
• Work a mixed backlog of small, medium, and project-scale requests while reducing the team's reliance on external development resources over time.
• Partner with the Functional Architect, functional consultants, and business stakeholders to translate requirements into practical, production-ready technical solutions.
• Research and resolve technical issues independently using SAP documentation, community resources, and available team knowledge.

• Minimum Experience3+ years of hands-on SAP development experience with ABAP and Fiori in an SAP HANA or S/4HANA environment.

• ABAP for HANA and HANA-optimized development, including:

• Code pushdown concepts and performance-first development practices

• Core Data Services (CDS): views, associations, unions, view entities, analytical annotations, and UI annotations

• AMDP, SQLScript basics, and table functions

• Working understanding of HANA indexing, calculation views, and hot/cold data tiering

• RAP (RESTful ABAP Programming Model), including:

• Business object modeling with managed and unmanaged behaviors

• Determinations, validations, and actions

• OData V2/V4 service exposure, Fiori Elements via annotations, and draft handling

• Fiori and UX development, including:

• Fiori Elements concepts and annotations (UI, ValueHelp, Semantics)

• SAP Launchpad configuration and role/task-based app design

• SAPUI5 awareness sufficient for troubleshooting and debugging

• SAP quality and governance practices, including:

• ATC with S/4 checks, cloud-ready checks, and performance whitelists

• Extensibility approaches: in-app/key-user, side-by-side (BTP), and ABAP Cloud developer extensibility

• SAP development tooling and DevOps workflows, including:

• ABAP Development Tools in Eclipse (ADT) as primary development environment

• abapGit or gCTS; branching strategies and code review processes

• Familiarity with CI/CD concepts including ATC gates and ABAP Unit in pipeline

• SAP security fundamentals: PFCG authorizations, SU53 analysis, authorization object checks in code, RFC destination and credential handling.

• Proven ability to work as a sole or primary SAP developer - owning delivery independently without a large development team to rely on.

• Strong problem-solving skills and a willingness to learn new SAP capabilities and business processes as the role expands.

• Bachelor's degree or equivalent professional experience.

• Must be legally authorized to work in the United States without sponsorship now or in the future.

• Additional PlusActive SAP certifications.

• Hands-on experience with SAP BTP extension and integration patterns beyond basic familiarity.

• Experience supporting FICO, MM, manufacturing, inventory, or procure-to-pay business processes in SAP.

• Familiarity with AP automation, GRC-related tools, or third-party SAP-adjacent platforms.

• Experience in a greenfield S/4HANA environment or a modern, lightly customized SAP landscape.

• Exposure to SAP Cloud ALM or similar tools for release traceability and project governance.

• Prior experience as the sole SAP developer or primary development owner in a lean team environment.
