• Develop and maintain APDs (Analysis Process Designer) to extract data from BW and push output files to application servers for downstream consumption.
• Analyze, troubleshoot, and optimize BW query and load performance, particularly for large data volumes. 
• Build and support connectivity between SAP BW and external data platforms, preferably Cloudera and/or Google Cloud Platform (GCP).
• Design, schedule, and monitor Process Chains to automate data loads and ensure data availability SLAs are met.
• Manage Transport Requests across development, quality, and production landscapes following change management best practices.
• Create and maintain technical documentation, including design specs, data flow diagrams, and process runbooks.
• Collaborate with functional consultants, business analysts, and downstream data teams to translate business requirements into technical solutions. 
• Provide production support, root-cause analysis, and long-term fixes for data and performance issues
