What You'll Do
You will create a new Orpheus software product based on SAP cloud technology components (SAC, DWC) in close collaboration with SAP software development.
This innovative analytics solution will cover procurement analysis as well as related areas like zero-based budgeting. You will support and implement technical solutions for data connectivity (e.g. to S/4HANA, SAP ECC, Ariba), data processing, cleansing, enrichment as well as data modeling.
Leveraging SAP and non-SAP ETL and data-transformation tools or scripts (e.g. SnapLogic, DWC, SQL, Python), you will access APIs, merge various internal and external data tables and sources, perform data quality checks and build up complex data models that will form the basis for further data cleaning, KPIs and analytics. Together with consulting teams, project managers and clients, you will gain understanding of client and project requirements and discuss how to best integrate them technically into the end product.
Another important part of your work will be the continuous development, deployment and improvement of our technology platform and the created business content. Here you will work closely with our client delivery and data science teams to create and deploy scalable solutions that can be brought to hundreds of clients per year.
