  • Relationship and trust building skills.
  • Experience with operations of large business applications / systems.
  • Ability to learn autonomously and without guidance.
  • Comfortable managing uncertainty.
  • Optional skills (nice‑to‑haves)

  • Knowledge of HANA core development and modelling (Information Models, SQLScript, CDS Views etc.)
  • Knowledge of SAP’s warehouse solutions (e.g. BW on HANA, native HANA EDW / data mart solutions) and / or knowledge of SAP’s suite solutions (e.g. Suite on HANA, S / 4HANA)
  • Knowledge of programming languages (e.g. ABAP, C++, Python, Unix shell etc.)
  • Knowledge of Linux and enterprise computing solutions (high availability, file systems, computer networks etc.)
  • Knowledge of cloud computing concepts and services.
  • WORK EXPERIENCE

  • Minimum of 3 years of professional experience, preferably in customer‑facing roles.
  • Bring out your best
