Role Summary

As a Data Migration Analyst, you will help clients move their business data safely and accurately from legacy systems to SAP S/4HANA. You will design and execute the extraction, transformation, and validation logic that maps source data to target structures, run mock loads and cutover migrations, and work hand-in-hand with functional consultants, developers, and client teams to resolve data issues quickly. Your work directly determines the quality of the data our clients go live with (and their confidence in it!).

Location & Work Model

• Location: Fully remote (India)
• Work Schedule: Shift-based (Afternoon/Evening, 3:00 PM – 12:00 AM IST). A shift allowance is provided per company policy.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop and execute scripts (SQL, Python, BODS) to extract, transform, cleanse, and validate data, mapping source structures to SAP target objects (e.g., business partners, customer/supplier master data, open items).
• Load data into S/4HANA using the SAP Migration Cockpit and related tooling; analyze load logs, troubleshoot errors, and re-process failed records.
• Plan and execute mock loads, load simulations, and cutover migrations, ensuring data accuracy, completeness, and security at each cycle.
• Perform data reconciliation and validation between source and target systems, and document results for client sign-off.
• Collaborate with analysts, developers, functional teams, and client stakeholders to clarify requirements, investigate discrepancies (e.g., duplicates, mapping gaps), and implement corrections.
• Document migration activities, mapping rules, and defect resolutions thoroughly, in line with project standards and timelines.
• Identify potential project blockers and support the implementation of solutions to mitigate risks.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in STEM, Business, or a related field (Computer Science or Software Engineering an asset).
• Minimum of 5 years of experience in data migration, data engineering, or SAP implementation projects.
• Strong proficiency in SQL (stored procedures, complex joins, data profiling).
• Python skills an asset.
• Solid understanding of data quality, validation, and reconciliation concepts.
• Hands-on experience with SAP tools — including SAP Migration Cockpit (LTMC/LTMOM), SAP Data Services, SAP Datasphere, and other SAP data migration tooling —along with familiarity with SAP master data objects is a very strong plus.
• Strong collaboration and interpersonal skills; comfortable working directly with clients under project deadlines.
• Exceptional verbal and written communication skills in English
