We are looking for an experienced SAP BTP Developer with a strong ABAP background to support a German SAP consultancy on an upcoming customer project.

Key responsibilities

• Develop applications and side-by-side extensions on SAP BTP
• Build solutions that integrate with SAP S/4HANA or existing SAP environments
• Develop and enhance ABAP-based components where required
• Work with ABAP Cloud, RAP, CDS views and OData services
• Support clean-core and extensibility strategies
• Develop applications using CAP, SAPUI5/Fiori and Cloud Foundry
• Design and consume REST, OData and SAP APIs
• Collaborate with functional consultants, architects and customer stakeholders
• Troubleshoot technical issues across BTP and ABAP environments

Required experience

• Strong commercial SAP BTP development experience
• Hands-on ABAP and ABAP Objects development experience
• Experience building extensions for S/4HANA environments
• Good understanding of clean-core principles and SAP extensibility
• Experience with ABAP Cloud, RAP, CDS views or OData
• Knowledge of CAP using Java or Node.js
• SAPUI5/Fiori development experience
• Strong understanding of APIs and SAP integration patterns
• Confident working independently within a customer-facing consultancy environment
• Fluent English communication skills

Desirable experience

• SAP Integration Suite/CPI
• Event Mesh or event-driven architecture
• SAP HANA Cloud
• Experience migrating traditional ABAP developments towards BTP or clean-core architectures
• German-language skills are beneficial but not essential

This would suit an experienced ABAP developer who has made a genuine transition into BTP development and can demonstrate hands-on delivery across both traditional SAP and modern cloud environments.
