SAP Functional Architect

Role Overview

We are looking for a seasoned SAP Functional Architect to own functional solution design across SAP ECC and S/4HANA landscapes.

Key Responsibilities

Solution design

• Define functional architecture and solution strategy for S/4HANA transformation and implementation programs.

• Lead fit-to-standard and solution-design workshops with business stakeholders, using SAP Best Practices and SAP Activate.

• Assess current ECC processes and define the future-state S/4HANA design, including Universal Journal, Business Partner, MRP Live, Advanced ATP and other simplification items.

• Use AI-generated documentation of current custom code to understand how the legacy system really works.

• Define the Fiori app strategy for business users with the technical architect.

• Ensure integration across FI/CO, SD, MM, PP, QM and EWM, and minimize custom development.

Migration and delivery

• Define the business side of the migration approach with the technical architect: system conversion, new implementation or selective data transition, including downtime and business-continuity needs.

• Own data migration design: SAP S/4HANA Migration Cockpit, master-data cleansing and Business Partner conversion.

• Review functional specifications for RICEFW objects, including AI-drafted specifications.

• Own test strategy (SIT, UAT, regression) with AI-generated and automated test scripts.

• Plan cutover, go-live and hypercare.

• Mentor functional consultants, lead cross-functional teams, and support pre-sales with process assessments, solution approaches and estimates.
