• Develop and support SAP BTP and SAP Integration Suite solutions that connect SAP applications with external billing, compliance, tax, finance, and cloud services.
• Design integration solutions that support SAP revenue accounting, accounts receivable, sales and distribution, regulatory compliance, invoicing, and related business processes.
• Build reusable common-core integration designs for country and market implementations to reduce duplication, rework, operational complexity, and long-term maintenance.
• Support integration with external enterprise systems, including billing, subscription, revenue, tax, finance, and compliance platforms.
• Develop and maintain APIs, middleware workflows, message-processing services, batch integrations, and event-driven architectures.
• Support platform migrations and modernization initiatives involving GCP, S3-to-GCS migration, Microsoft Entra ID, Apigee, GitHub, PAC, PCF, OpenShift, Docker, and Kubernetes.

SAP Document & Reporting Compliance

• Lead technical integration activities for SAP Document and Reporting Compliance implementations.
• Support electronic invoicing, VAT reporting, statutory compliance, invoice validation, country-specific schema requirements, and related regulatory integration needs.
• Develop DRC architecture and middleware solutions that support global-market requirements while maintaining common-core design standards.
• Partner with SAP functional, tax, finance, legal, and compliance stakeholders to translate regulatory requirements into scalable technical solutions.
• Support global DRC market implementations, testing, cutovers, production launches, and post-go-live stabilization.

Cloud Platform, Security & DevSecOps

• Support and enhance Google Cloud Platform services, including Cloud Run, Cloud Run Jobs, Cloud Scheduler, Cloud Storage, Pub/Sub, Secret Manager, IAM, and Cloud Monitoring.
• Design and support secure authentication and authorization patterns using OIDC, OAuth, JWT, Microsoft Entra ID, TLS/SSL, certificate management, and identity-access-management processes.
• Develop and maintain secure CI/CD and DevSecOps practices using GitHub, PAC, Jenkins, TeamCity, Maven, Chef, SonarQube, Veracode, Cycode, and related tools.
• Ensure integration solutions meet enterprise security, data-protection, compliance, auditing, and operational requirements.
• Apply containerization and cloud-native practices using Docker, Kubernetes, OpenShift, PCF, and comparable platforms where appropriate.
• Partner with infrastructure, cloud, cybersecurity, and platform teams to improve reliability, scalability, security, and operational readiness.

Performance, Automation & Production Support

• Improve performance and reliability of SAP batch programs, IDoc processing, API services, middleware workflows, and high-volume revenue transactions.
• Develop automation for reconciliation, data validation, error correction, failed-record reprocessing, alerting, and production-support activities.
• Support ERF processing and improve resolution time for in-progress transactions, integration failures, and operational issues.
• Implement monitoring, alerting, logging, and observability capabilities using AppDynamics, Google Cloud Monitoring, logging platforms, email notifications, Microsoft Teams notifications, and related technologies.
• Lead integration, regression, performance, and end-to-end testing using JUnit, JMeter, Karate, WireMock, TOSCA, and comparable test-automation tools.
• Perform root-cause analysis for complex production incidents and implement corrective and preventative actions.
• Support release management, production cutovers, go-live readiness, hypercare, and post-launch stabilization for global implementations.
• Maintain clear and complete technical documentation, including solution designs, interface specifications, API contracts, operational procedures, monitoring standards, and support runbooks.
