We help the world run better
At SAP, we keep it simple: you bring your best to us, and we'll bring out the best in you. We're builders touching over 20 industries and 80% of global commerce, and we need your unique talents to help shape what's next. The work is challenging – but it matters. You'll find a place where you can be yourself, prioritize your wellbeing, and truly belong. What's in it for you? Constant learning, skill growth, great benefits, and a team that wants you to grow and succeed. 


What you'll build

As a Technical Consultant in SAP's DMLT (Data Management & Landscape Transformation) team, you will help customers transform their SAP system landscapes through high-impact data migration, transformation, and consolidation projects. You'll also apply your developer skills to enhance existing toolsets and contribute to cloud-based development initiatives.

You'll be responsible for:

  • Configuring and operating SAP DMLT tools to execute data migration and transformation activities
  • Delivering technical project execution from design to go-live support
  • Performing system and feasibility analyses for scenarios like system merges, carve-outs, or selective data transitions
  • Designing effective architectures for data consolidation and harmonization using SAP technologies
  • Resolving technical issues during testing and execution phases to ensure quality outcomes
  • Collaborating with architects, solution experts, and offshore teams for smooth delivery

What you bring
  • 3–5 years of technical experience in SAP consulting or development, ideally in data migration or transformation projects
  • Hands-on experience in at least two SAP data migration projects or development skills in Java, JavaScript, Python, and SAP UI5
  • Proficiency in SAP ABAP development and understanding of SAP ECC and S/4HANA data models
  • Practical experience with SAP migration tools (Migration Cockpit, Data Services, or equivalent)
  • Familiarity with emerging SAP technologies such as SAP Business Data Cloud, Datasphere, or SAP CAP model
  • Strong process understanding across core business areas (Lead-to-Cash, Procure-to-Pay, etc.)
  • Excellent communication and presentation skills, customer focus, and collaborative mindset
  • Fluency in English; additional languages are an advantage
  • Willingness to travel (10–30%) regionally or globally

Where you belong

You'll join Data Management and Landscape Transformation (DMLT), a global organization within SAP's Customer Service & Delivery board area, with more than 300 consultants worldwide. Our mission is to enable customers to intelligently connect people, data, and processes — ensuring data becomes a true asset for innovation and sustainable growth.

DMLT offers a holistic approach to data-related needs, covering data quality, integration, and transformation. We help customers fast-track migrations, manage complex transformations, and optimize processes for SAP S/4HANA Cloud, SAP Business Data Cloud, and beyond.

You'll work in a fast-paced, collaborative environment that values innovation, learning, and career progression. Expect exposure to cutting-edge technologies, global projects, and opportunities to shape SAP's transformation engine.

Whether connecting global industries, people, or platforms, we help ensure every challenge gets the solution it deserves. At SAP, you can bring out your best.  

We win with inclusion
