SAP S/4HANA ABAP | Technical Consultant

KPMG is a global network of firms providing Audit, Tax, and Advisory services. With a presence in 142 countries and over 270.000 professionals, we deliver high-quality services to clients worldwide. In Portugal, we operate from offices in Lisbon, Evora, and Oporto, with a team of more than 1.700 experienced professionals.

We are looking for a highly capable SAP S/4HANA ABAP / Technical Senior Consultant to join our SAP S/4HANA transformation programs. The ideal candidate combines strong pure-ABAP expertise with exposure to modern S/4HANA and SAP BTP development paradigms, and is able to work autonomously in complex implementation and conversion projects.

About the role...



Responsibilities:
Design, build, and deliver high-quality ABAP developments (reports, enhancements, user exits, BADIs) across the full project lifecycle (build, unit test, SIT/UAT support, go-live/hypercare).
Translate functional specifications into robust technical designs, ensuring alignment with SAP standards, performance, and maintainability.
Develop and maintain interfaces (IDocs, RFCs, BAPIs, APIs) for SAP-to-SAP and SAP-to-non-SAP integration scenarios.
Build and enhance Forms (SmartForms / Adobe Forms) and output management solutions supporting business processes.
Develop and optimize modern ABAP artifacts for S/4HANA, including CDS Views and exposure/consumption patterns for analytics and services.
Support or contribute to RAP-based components and service enablement (e.g., OData/service layers), collaborating with functional and UX/Fiori teams when applicable.
Perform debugging, root-cause analysis, and performance optimization; execute code reviews and quality assurance to ensure clean, reliable deliveries.
Support S/4HANA transformation activities such as custom code adaptation, simplification item impact assessment, and remediation using tools like ATC / Custom Code Migration.
Apply Clean Core and extensibility principles, advising on in-app vs. side-by-side extensions and best practices for sustainable custom development.
Collaborate effectively with technical architects, integration teams, and cross-stream functional teams (FI, MM, SD, etc.), working autonomously while contributing to team outcomes.

To join our team...

You must have...

S/4HANA: Mandatory exposure to SAP S/4HANA environments and understanding of
S/4HANA-specific development considerations.
Modern ABAP: Hands-on experience with CDS Views and understanding of ABAP RESTful Application Programming Model (RAP); familiarity with ABAP on SAP BTP is a plus.

You must be...

Tooling: Experience with SAP ABAP Development Tools (ADT) in Eclipse (or equivalent compatible IDEs).
Delivery: Ability to perform unit testing, support SIT/UAT cycles, and deliver technical solutions end-to-end with strong autonomy.
Quality & Performance: Strong debugging skills, performance optimization experience, and exposure to code quality assurance/review practices.
