What Youll Own

ABAP Development & Feature Delivery

You write ABAP code that works correctly efficiently and at a standard the codebase can be proud of. Specifically you are accountable for:

Delivering new features and enhancements as directed by the product organization with clean well-annotated vulnerability-free code

Applying both functional and object-oriented programming principles with fluency choosing the right approach for the problem not the one you happen to be most comfortable with

Writing code that others can read review and build on variable names that mean something logic that is traceable and comments that explain intent where the code alone cannot

Ensuring every piece of code you ship is free from security vulnerabilities this is a non-negotiable on a product trusted by the worlds largest organizations to protect their SAP environments

Software Development Lifecycle Ownership

Development does not end when the code compiles. You are expected to own your work through the full SDLC including:

Writing and maintaining unit tests and contributing to integration testing coverage quality is your responsibility not QAs alone

Participating actively in code review both receiving feedback and providing it for your peers

Contributing to transport management and release packaging ensuring changes move through development quality and production environments cleanly and traceably

Supporting root cause analysis and resolution when defects surface in production and contributing to the process improvements that prevent them from recurring

Product Support

PowerConnect has a large active customer base. Support is not a distraction from engineering it is part of the job:

Providing technical escalation support for complex customer issues that require ABAP-level diagnosis

Translating customer-reported problems into clear reproducible defects and driving them to resolution with appropriate urgency

Building documentation and tooling that reduces the frequency and cost of escalations over time

Continuous Learning & Technical Growth

The SAP development landscape is evolving ABAP for Cloud RESTful Application Programming Model (RAP) ABAP Unit clean core principles and AI-assisted development are all changing what good ABAP looks like. You are expected to:

Actively stay current with modern ABAP practices and bring relevant improvements back to the team and the codebase

Contribute to internal knowledge sharing write-ups documentation brief tech talks or simply being the person on the team who knows the answer

Engage with the broader RHONDOS mission beyond your immediate codebase understand the product the customers and the business context well enough to make better engineering decisions

What Success Looks Like

Dimension - The Standard

Code Quality - Code you ship is clean annotated and passes review without significant rework. Vulnerabilities are caught before they reach QA.

Delivery - Features and fixes land on schedule. Estimates are reliable and you surface blockers early rather than late.

SDLC Contribution - Tests accompany your code. Transports are clean. You are a constructive voice in code review both giving and receiving.

Support - Customer issues you own are diagnosed clearly and resolved with urgency proportionate to severity.

Growth - You are demonstrably more capable at the end of each year than at the beginning and the team benefits from that.

What You Bring

Required

Solid demonstrable proficiency in ABAP classical and modern language syntax and development principles

Deep proficiency in ABAP Objects: interfaces inheritance class-based exceptions and design patterns such as factory builder dispatcher and task queue

Strong ABAP Dictionary skills: transparent tables views data elements domains table types lock objects and search helps

Hands-on experience with RFC and parallel processing: asynchronous RFC task queues and dispatching enqueue locking and synchronization background jobs and shared memory objects

HTTP/REST integration from ABAP and serializing/parsing JSON and XML payloads at high volume

Performance-minded development for high-volume data extraction: efficient Open SQL internal table handling at scale and runtime analysis

Understanding of core computer engineering principles: data structures algorithmic complexity modularity encapsulation separation of concerns

Experience working across the full SDLC: development testing transport management and production support

Familiarity with SAP security concepts relevant to ABAP development authorization objects input validation injection prevention

Ability to write code that others can read not just code that runs

Curiosity and the discipline to act on it: you find new techniques and actually apply them

Strong Preference

Experience with modern ABAP practices: RAP ABAP for Cloud Clean ABAP guidelines or ABAP Unit testing frameworks

Familiarity with SAP observability monitoring or security tooling (SAP Solution Manager SIEM integration Splunk or Dynatrace connectors)

Experience in a product company software you built is running in production at customers you care about

Exposure to DevOps or CI/CD practices in a SAP context

Experience with AI-assisted development tooling and a genuine opinion on how to use it well

Working knowledge of observability protocols and platforms: Splunk (HTTP Event Collector REST API metrics) Dynatrace Elastic or OCI Logging

Experience querying and monitoring SAP HANA via ADBC / native SQL

Familiarity with SAP integration and replication technologies: SAP Gateway and OData (V2/V4) SLT/LTRC IDoc/ALE AIF

What Youre Not Accountable For

To be explicit about boundaries:

Product direction and roadmap prioritization the what and why are a product and leadership conversation. Your job is to execute those decisions at a high standard and bring technical insight to the conversation not make the final call.

Architecture and security posture decisions that carry company-level risk those surface to senior engineering leadership with your analysis and a recommendation. You own the implementation once direction is set.

Commercial outcomes sales and customer success own the quality of the product that makes retention and growth possible.
