ABOUT THE ROLE:

• Migrate and decommission custom finance logic in favor of SAP-standard processes.
• Lead complex, migration-heavy integration initiatives with a high degree of independence and ownership.
• Ensure data correctness, auditability, and resilience (idempotency, retries, observability).
• Collaborate closely with the SAP Product Owner / Technical Project Lead and Staff Engineers, clearly communicating technical decisions and trade-offs in English.
• Document integration patterns and migration decisions for long-term ownership.

• Strong senior-level backend experience with PHP in complex, distributed systems.
• Solid experience building system integrations (APIs, async/event-driven patterns).
• Strong proficiency in English, with excellent written and spoken communication skills.
• High level of independence, proactiveness, and ownership in driving integration and migration work.
• Structured, pragmatic, and quality-driven mindset; comfortable with ambiguity and migration work.
