Location: PAN India
Experience: 3+ Years
Education: 15 Years Full-Time Education

Job Summary

We are looking for an SAP ABAP on HANA professional who can build AI-native, HANA-optimized SAP applications and extensions by combining strong ABAP on HANA engineering with Agentic AI patterns such as LLMs, tools, retrieval, and evaluation.

The role focuses on delivering high-performance, cloud-ready, production-grade solutions using HANA pushdown principles, modern ABAP, and governed AI capabilities.

Key Responsibilities

ABAP on HANA Engineering

• Design and develop ABAP solutions optimized for SAP HANA using pushdown principles.
• Build efficient data models and access patterns using CDS views, associations, annotations, and authorization concepts.
• Implement performance-critical logic using AMDP / SQLScript where appropriate.

Modern ABAP Development

• Develop modular, testable, and maintainable ABAP code aligned with clean architecture practices.
• Build services and APIs using modern paradigms such as OData/service exposure patterns.
• Apply secure coding standards and authorization checks.

Data Modeling & Reporting

• Model enterprise business entities using CDS semantics.
• Design reusable data artifacts for UI, integrations, analytics, and AI retrieval layers.
• Ensure consistent business definitions and lineage-friendly structures.

AI Native SAP Capabilities

• Build AI-enabled SAP experiences integrating ABAP services with LLM capabilities.
• Implement tool-calling orchestration through controlled APIs.
• Build retrieval-grounded outputs over governed SAP data and documentation.
• Implement prompts/templates, tool schemas, and context assembly strategies.
• Apply deterministic fallbacks and enterprise safety boundaries.

Quality Engineering & Evaluation

• Build automated unit, integration, and contract tests for ABAP services and data artifacts.
• Establish evaluation frameworks for AI behaviors using golden datasets and scenario-based tests.
• Implement guardrails such as authorization-aware context filtering, redaction rules, action confirmations, and audit logs.

Observability & Operations

• Implement logs, metrics, and traces for production support and root-cause analysis.
• Design robust error handling including retries, idempotency, correlation IDs, and safe failure modes.
• Support incident response and continuously improve solutions.

Integration & End-to-End Delivery

• Integrate ABAP on HANA services with SAP and non-SAP ecosystems.
• Collaborate with UX, integration, data, and platform teams.
• Prototype and evolve solutions into scalable production systems with security and compliance.

Must Have Skills

• SAP ABAP Development for HANA
• Strong hands-on expertise in ABAP Development on HANA.
• Performance tuning, pushdown, and efficient SQL access patterns.
• Proficiency with CDS Views and modern data modeling.
• Experience with AMDP / SQLScript.
• Solid software engineering practices, testing mindset, CI/CD orientation, and production readiness.

• AI-native build capability including:

• LLM integration
• Retrieval grounding
• Tool orchestration
• Evaluation loops
• AI safety boundaries

Good to Have Skills

• OData/service design patterns.
• API lifecycle management and contract-first development.
• Experience integrating SAP backends with cloud runtimes and enterprise integration platforms.
• Performance benchmarking and load testing.
• Query-plan driven tuning.
• SAP security, authorizations, and compliance knowledge.

What This Role Does Not Center On

• Training or fine-tuning foundation models from scratch.
• AI-assisted-only development. The role focuses on building and owning AI behaviors including grounding, evaluation, guardrails, and observability as part of SAP solution delivery.

Experience

• Minimum 3 years of experience is required.
• Hands-on experience with SAP ABAP Development for HANA.
• Experience with AI-native / Agentic AI capabilities as mentioned above.

Education

• 15 years of full-time education is required.
