SAP Basis Performance Consultant
Indexed description
We are looking for an experienced SAP Basis consultant to act as a performance advisor for complex SAP landscapes. This is an advisory role rather than hands-on system administration: the focus is on analysing environments and providing expert recommendations that optimise system performance and ensure compatibility with specialised transformation tools.
You will work closely with a multidisciplinary team delivering large-scale SAP initiatives, including data migrations, carve-outs, data deletions, upgrades and transformations. Your recommendations will directly shape how efficiently and safely these projects run.
Requirements
Key responsibilities
- Analyse SAP system landscapes and identify performance bottlenecks.
- Provide expert recommendations to customers on system configuration and optimisation.
- Advise on the changes required to ensure optimal performance of external tools and processes.
- Review architecture across SAP versions and database platforms.
• Guide best practices for:
– System performance tuning
- Data volume management (excluding archiving strategies)
- Support planning activities for data migrations, system carve-outs, and upgrades and transformations.
- Collaborate with technical and functional teams to align recommendations with project goals.
- Provide input on database-level considerations across Oracle, Microsoft SQL Server and SAP HANA.
- Assist in analysing ABAP-related performance issues (traces, dumps and inefficient programs).
Required skills & experience
- Strong background in SAP Basis architecture and performance optimisation.
- Experience across multiple SAP versions (ECC, S/4HANA, etc.).
- Deep understanding of database platforms: Oracle, Microsoft SQL Server and SAP HANA.
- Working knowledge of ABAP performance analysis.
- Proven experience in SAP projects involving data migrations, carve-outs and system upgrades.
- Ability to assess complex landscapes and provide clear, actionable recommendations.
Strong understanding of key SAP tables and data structures – particularly the large-volume tables that dominate performance and data-intensive operations:
Preferred qualifications
- Experience in S/4HANA conversions or transformation programmes.
- Exposure to SAP functional processes (FI, MM, SD, etc.).
- Experience advising clients in high-impact or large-scale environments.
- Strong communication and stakeholder-management skills.
