Role summary
This role is for a Sr SAP Finance Architect responsible for designing and delivering a greenfield SAP S/4HANA implementation. The architect will own the end-to-end solution architecture for SAP finance and controllership domains, ensuring a scalable, clean-core design. Key responsibilities include translating business requirements into SAP configuration, designing integrations with upstream and downstream systems, leading standard-versus-custom decisions, and building financial controls into the design. The role requires deep technical expertise in SAP finance, integration, and clean-core concepts, with a focus on mentoring junior team members. Preferred qualifications include knowledge of various SAP systems and experience with Generative AI and data & analytics.
Key job responsibilities
- Own the end-to-end solution architecture for the SAP finance and controllership domains on S/4HANA, translating business-process requirements into a coherent, scalable design.
- Partner with Accounting, Finance, and FP&A leaders to work backwards from financial-close, controls, and management-reporting requirements, and convert them into SAP configuration, the finance data model, and integration designs the delivery team can build.
- Own the integration architecture connecting SAP FICO to its upstream and downstream systems (billing, procurement, product costing, the manufacturing stack, and the reporting and data-lake layer), establishing a single source of truth for financial data.
- Lead SAP standard-versus-custom decisions, favoring configuration and clean-core extensions on BTP over core modifications, and evaluate system-integrator proposals with deep technical judgment on controls, auditability, upgrade-safety, and long-term maintainability.
- Build financial controls, segregation of duties, and audit and compliance requirements into the SAP design from the start rather than retrofitting them.
- Serve as the senior technical authority for SAP finance through design and configuration reviews, prototypes, and hands-on resolution of the hardest FICO configuration and integration problems, mentoring functional analysts and junior architects. Basic Qualifications: - 10+ years of IT development or implementation/consulting in the software or Internet industries experience Preferred Qualifications: - Knowledge of SAP systems (like SAP Business Suite, S/4HANA, SAP Business Warehouse, SAP HANA, SAP Business Objects, etc.) and their architecture and infrastructure needs
- Experience working with end user or developer communities
- Experience managing relationships with SAP customers and partners
- Experience in SAP S/4HANA, SAP Cloud Platform, SAP Cloud ERP and Cloud ERP Private
- Experience in SAP clean core design concepts, including design and build using non-SAP technologies in domains such as Generative / Agentic AI, and data & analytics
