• The ideal candidate combines deep Finance and Controlling domain expertise with strong hands-on experience in SAP data migration tools such as LTMC, LTMOM, BODS, and exposure to Databricks.

• Manage extraction of Master Data and Transactional Data from SAP ECC and non-SAP systems.

• Execute data loads using:
• SAP Migration Cockpit (LTMC)
• LTMOM (Migration Object Modeler)
• SAP Data Services (BODS)
• Exposure to Databricks for large-scale data transformation is preferred.

• Perform pre-load and post-load validations to ensure data completeness and accuracy.
