Domain Specialization: Deep functional expertise in SAP S/4HANA Project Systems, specialized in integration with Omega PIMS, Primavera, and SAP Data analytics platforms.
Process Knowledge: Strong understanding of end-to-end Project Systems and Portfolio processes, including project initiation, project forecasting, and full project lifecycles.
Technical & Delivery SkillsProven ability to apply fit-to-standard and clean core principles to minimize customization and protect long-term SAP upgradeability.
Experience evaluating and approving functional gaps, extensions, and custom developments within structured governance landscapes.
Working knowledge of integrated platforms such as SAP EPPM and related ecosystem environments (Omega 365, Primavera, Hexagon, Cleopatra) and how they interact with S/4HANA.
Solid understanding of master and transactional data critical to Project Systems operations, paired with familiarity with SAP reporting approaches (embedded analytics, BDC, or integrated reporting landscapes).
Preferred Certifications (Assets)
Project Systems or SAP professional designations (e.g., SAP PS, SAP EPPM certifications).
Testing or delivery methodologies certifications (e.g., ISTQB, PMP, Agile/Scrum).
