Evora Group is seeking a Senior SAP Data Engineer to architect, build and operate the core data platform that underpins our growing Analytics Practice. This role owns the foundation: data ingestion, modelling, performance, cost, and the governed consumption layer that analytics and planning teams build upon. You will work across SAP Business Data Cloud, SAP Datasphere and SAP HANA Cloud, integrating data from SAP and non-SAP sources for clients in asset-intensive industries including utilities, oil & gas, manufacturing, and transport. Beyond delivery, you will support pre-sales, represent Evora externally in the SAP data community, and help shape the standards of a merged SAP and Microsoft data practice. Key Responsibilities Architect, build and optimize modern SAP data platform solutions based on SAP Business Data Cloud, SAP Datasphere and SAP HANA Cloud, applying SAP reference architectures, Clean Core principles and LSA++ layering. Design robust data models in SAP Datasphere - spaces, tables, graphical and SQL views, associations and analytic models - from source connection through to a governed, documented consumption layer. Implement and tune replication flows, transformation flows and task chains, including delta and change data capture handling, error recovery and restart ability. Establish and maintain connectivity to SAP and non-SAP sources using ODP, ABAP CDS, SAP Landscape Transformation (SLT), Smart Data Integration with the Data Provisioning Agent, cloud object storage and JDBC. Model and optimize on SAP HANA Cloud: calculation views, SQL Script procedures, partitioning, indexing and memory footprint management. Take and justify design decisions on federation versus persistence, data tiering and retention, with explicit attention to platform cost and data volume growth. Define and publish data products within SAP Business Data Cloud, including catalogue entries, semantics and documented consumption contracts for downstream teams. Implement platform security and tenant governance: space design, row-level and object-level security, data access controls, and naming and transport standards. Operate the platform in production - monitoring, alerting, incident response, transport and release management across development, quality and production tiers. Collaborate closely with the sales team to present architecture concepts, solution scenarios and demos to clients, and to support estimation and scoping of new engagements. Represent Evora as a thought leader by conducting client workshops, publishing expert content, contributing to the SAP Community, and speaking at conferences and user group events. Work with SAP Data Analysts and solution architects to agree the semantic layer boundary and hand over documented, tested and supportable models. Maintain awareness of SAP partner programme requirements, competencies and specializations relevant to the data and analytics portfolio. Contribute reusable assets, engineering standards and documentation to the Evora Analytics CoE.
