City: Dubai
Contract type: Full time
Company: ITHR Tech
Location: Dubai, UAE (Onsite)
Employment Type: Permanent / Full-time
About The Role
ITHR Tech is hiring a hands-on SAP ABAP Subject Matter Expert with deep, practical expertise across SAP Analytics Cloud (SAC) and SAP Datasphere, and strong functional integration experience in SAP ECC and SAP S/4HANAspecifically for the retail industry. You'll lead solution design and development end-to-end: ABAP on HANA engineering, data models and services (CDS, OData, RAP), data pipelines into Datasphere, and planning/analytics delivery in SAC for retail use cases (pricing/promotions, assortments, replenishment, markdowns, inventory, POS, loyalty).
What you will do
ABAP on HANA engineering (SME level)
Design and develop robust ABAP solutions leveraging CDS views (V2/V4 annotations), AMDP, Table Functions, SQL Script, ABAP OO, and the RESTful ABAP Programming Model (RAP).
Expose data/services via OData (V2/V4) for Fiori/UI5 apps and analytics consumption (SAC live/import, Datasphere).
Optimize code for HANA: code pushdown, use of ALV with IDA, performance tracing (SAT/SE30, SQLM), ATC/SCI compliance, and ABAP Unit tests.
S/4HANA & ECC integration (Retail)
Build and refactor custom code against S/4 data structures (ACDOCA, MATDOC) and classic ECC tables (MARA/MARC/MARD, VBAK/VBAP, VBRK/VBRP).
Integrate with retail components (IS-Retail, CAR optional), covering Article/Site Master, listings/assortments, POS (POSDTA), ATP/stock availability, promotions/markdowns, replenishment and inventory processes.
Orchestrate interfaces using IDoc/BAPI/RFC, and middleware patterns with SAP Integration Suite (CPI) or PI/PO where applicable.
SAP Datasphere (data modeling & pipelines)
Design data architecture using Spaces, Connections, Remote Tables, Replication Flows, Data Flows/Transformations, Graph, Data Builder, and Business Builder.
Build semantic/analytic models aligned to retail KPIs (sell-through, GM%, stock cover, OTB, promo uplift), with proper data lineage and governance (DAC/privileges).
SAP Analytics Cloud (planning & analytics)
Deliver enterprise analytics and driver-based planning for retail (sales, margin, inventory, OPEX/CAPEX, workforce).
Build Models, Stories, Applications, Data Actions, Advanced Formulas, Multi-Actions, Value Driver Trees, and Calendar workflows; implement currency translation, versions, and security.
Implement both Live and Import connections, and define robust refresh/scheduling strategies from Datasphere/S4/ECC.
Solution leadership & quality
Lead technical design reviews, estimations, transports (CTS+/gCTS), CI/CD practices, and production readiness (monitoring, logging, alerting).
Partner with functional, data, and business teams to translate requirements into scalable designs; produce design docs, mappings, test scripts, and operations runbooks.
Ensure compliance with coding standards, ATC checks, and simplification item remediation for S/4.
Required Qualifications & Experience
10+ years of total SAP experience with 7+ years in ABAP on HANA; proven SME capability (design authority/lead).
35+ years hands-on with SAP Analytics Cloud (planning & analytics) and SAP Datasphere (or SAP BW/4HANA to Datasphere transition plus strong Datasphere projects).
Solid delivery across both SAP ECC and S/4HANA (greenfield and/or brownfield), including custom code remediation and performance tuning on HANA.
Retail domain depth: article/site master, pricing/promotions, assortments/listings, replenishment & inventory, POS integration, loyalty/CRM, sell-through and margin analytics.
Strong interface background: IDoc, BAPI, RFC, OData, CPI/PI-PO, file-based ingestion patterns to Datasphere.
Tooling: ADT (Eclipse), BAS, Fiori/UI5 basics, GIT/gCTS, ATC/SCI, JMeter/Postman (API tests) and query analyzers.
Nice to have (plus points)
Experience with SAC predictive/augmented analytics, planning best practices (allocation, spreading, driver hierarchies).
Exposure to BW/4HANA, Open ODS Views, and migration of BW models into Datasphere Analytic Models.
Knowledge of BOPF/RAP behaviors, event handling, and CDS-based authorizations; Fiori Elements app configuration.
Understanding of CAR (OAA/OPP), Retail Pricing, Markdown Optimization, and ATP mechanics.
Certification(s): SAP ABAP on HANA, S/4HANA Development, SAC, Datasphere.
Soft skills
Clear, concise communicator who can explain complex technical trade-offs to non-technical stakeholders.
Ownership mindset with a bias toward measurable outcomes (performance, stability, data accuracy).
Strong documentation habits and mentoring capability for junior engineers.
What we offer
Competitive compensation and long-term growth in a high-impact role.
Complex, enterprise-scale retail programs with modern SAP data & analytics stacks.
Logistics
Location: Dubai, UAE (onsite).
Type: Permanent / Full-time.
Work authorization: Candidates should be eligible to work in the UAE (or be open to sponsorship/relocation, if applicable).
