Senior Staff Software Engineer - SAP Connectors

Fivetran and dbt Labs are building data pipelines to power the modern data stack for thousands of companies.

Fivetran's SAP connectors move enterprise data out of SAP and into modern data platforms. We're looking for an all-round SAP specialist who combines strong ABAP skills with deep knowledge of SAP outbound interfacing. You'll work on the interfaces and data extraction mechanisms that let Fivetran reliably pull data from SAP ECC and S/4HANA systems, and you'll help customers and internal teams get the most out of them.

You will be the SAP specialist within a team of Java developers. Your knowledge and input is crucial to the success of this team.

Technologies You’ll Use

• ABAP programming using traditional SAPGUI as well as Eclipse (or other IDE).
• Databases (HANA/Oracle/etc)
• Cloud environments (AWS/GCP/MS)
• AI tools Claude/Codex/
• Design, build, and maintain high-performance ABAP components (function modules, classes, CDS views, and enhancements) to drive scalable outbound data extraction from SAP systems.
• Own and modernize internal SAP test environments to accelerate feature development for current connectors and upcoming public cloud / BTP integrations.
• Architect robust outbound interfaces leveraging OData, standard and generic DataSources, ODP/ODQ delta frameworks, and RFC connections.
• Optimize data throughput and reliability across ECC and S/4HANA landscapes by diagnosing and resolving extraction performance bottlenecks and delta synchronization issues.
• Analyze underlying SAP database structures (HANA and traditional DBs) to unlock efficiency gains and streamline data pipeline performance.
• Partner closely with engineering, support, and customers to translate complex business requirements into elegant technical architectures.
• Deliver end-to-end support for enterprise clients by troubleshooting complex connectivity, authorization, and configuration challenges in customer SAP environments.
• Establish technical design standards, interface specifications, and best practice documentation for internal and external knowledge sharing.
• Evaluate and integrate emerging SAP technologies—including SAP Datasphere and BTP—to keep Fivetran’s connectors at the forefront of modern data integration.
