This is a client-facing, delivery-accountable role for someone who has grown through hands-on functional or technical SAP work into program leadership, and who is equally comfortable in a client steering committee, a solution design workshop, or an internal effort-estimation review. The ideal candidate has broad exposure across SAP Business One (B1), SAP ECC, and SAP S/4HANA (Public Cloud, Private Cloud, and On-Premise), and has led at least a few end-to-end implementations plus long-running AMS/support engagements. Beyond project delivery, this person will play an active role in strengthening the practice itself - shaping proposals, mentoring consultants, and contributing to the SAP AI and automation roadmap. Key Responsibilities 1. Presales & RFP SupportRFP / RFI response ownership - lead the solution narrative, scope definition, and win themes for SAP RFPs and RFIs, working closely with the sales and commercial teams.\nSolution design for proposals - translate a prospect's business requirements into a credible SAP solution approach across B1, ECC, and S/4HANA landscapes.\nClient presentations - represent the practice in solution walkthroughs, orals, and technical clarification rounds with prospective clients.\nCompetitive positioning - articulate why Noblq's SAP delivery model, accelerators, and AI-driven tooling are differentiated versus competing bidders. 2. Estimation & Solution Architecture\nEffort and cost estimation - build bottom-up and parametric estimates for implementation, rollout, upgrade, and AMS deals, with clear assumptions and risk buffers.\nSolution blueprinting - define target architecture (on-premise, private cloud, public cloud, or hybrid), integration approach, and data migration strategy.\nEffort benchmarking - maintain and apply estimation benchmarks and past-project actuals to keep estimates defensible and commercially sound.\nTechnology & module fitment - recommend the right SAP product line (B1 vs. S/4HANA Public/Private Cloud vs. On-Premise) based on client size, complexity, and budget. 3. Delivery & Program Management\nEnd-to-end project ownership - manage SAP implementation, rollout, and upgrade/conversion projects from kick-off through go-live and hypercare.\nAMS governance - oversee support engagements against SLAs, ticket volumes, and continuous improvement targets.\nStakeholder management - act as the primary point of contact for client sponsors and steering committees; manage scope, risk, budget, and timeline.\nCross-functional team leadership - lead functional consultants, technical/ABAP resources, Basis, and integration teams across onshore/offshore models.\nQuality and governance - enforce project methodology (Activate/Agile/Waterfall as applicable), documentation standards, and change control. 4. Practice Building\nMentoring & cross-skilling - coach mid-level consultants on solution design, client communication, and estimation discipline.\nReusable assets - contribute to accelerators, solution templates, demo scripts, and playbooks the wider practice can reuse.\nAI enablement - support the practice's SAP AI vision by identifying opportunities to bring AI-assisted testing, documentation, or estimation tools into live projects.\nResourcing input - flag skill gaps and hiring needs to the practice and resourcing teams based on pipeline and delivery experience. Required Experience & Technology Exposure Overall experience: 10 to 15 years in SAP consulting, with a mix of implementation and AMS engagements, including at least 5 years in a solution architect capacity. SAP Platforms (hands-on or architecture-level exposure to most of the below)\nSAP Business One (B1) - SME-segment implementations and support\nSAP ECC - core implementations, rollouts, and long-term AMS\nSAP S/4HANA On-Premise - greenfield and brownfield implementations, ECC-to-S/4 conversions\nSAP S/4HANA Private Cloud - RISE with SAP engagements, managed-cloud delivery models\nSAP S/4HANA Public Cloud - fit-to-standard workshops, best-practice-led rollouts Functional / Technical Depth A strong background in one or more of the following, with working knowledge across the rest is expected:\nFunctional: Finance & Controlling (FICO), Sales & Distribution (SD), Materials Management (MM), Production Planning (PP), Quality Management (QM), Plant Maintenance (PM), Human Capital Management (HCM)\nTechnical: ABAP, Basis, SAP BTP, integration technologies (PI/PO, CPI), Fiori/UI5, data migration tools (LTMC/LSMW/Migration Cockpit)\nProject types: greenfield implementations, brownfield/system conversions, rollouts, upgrades, and steady-state AMS/support Skills & Competencies\nStrong client-facing communication and executive presence; able to run steering committee conversations independently.\nSharp commercial sense - comfortable discussing scope, effort, and pricing trade-offs with clients and internal leadership.\nStructured problem-solving; able to break down ambiguous requirements into a clear solution and delivery plan.\nPeople leadership - experience managing teams of 10-40+ consultants across onshore/offshore locations.\nFamiliarity with project delivery frameworks (SAP Activate, Agile/Scrum, Waterfall) and PMO disciplines (RAID logs, status reporting, change control).\nOpenness to AI-assisted delivery tools - testing automation, documentation generation, estimation support - as part of modernizing project execution. Certifications & Education (Preferred, Not Mandatory)\nSAP certification in one or more modules (FICO, SD, MM, S/4HANA, or equivalent).\nPMP, PRINCE2, or SAP Activate Project Manager certification.\nBachelor's degree in Engineering, Commerce, or a related field; MBA is an added advantage. Location & Work Mode Base location: Chennai. The role may require travel to client locations within India (and occasionally overseas) for workshops, go-lives, and steering committee meetings, depending on project needs. Why Join Noblq's SAP Practice\nWork across the full SAP product spectrum - B1, ECC, and every S/4HANA deployment model - rather than a single narrow track.\nDirect exposure to presales and deal-shaping, not just execution, for those who want to grow into practice leadership.\nA practice actively investing in AI-driven accelerators, prompt libraries, and reusable assets - a chance to help build these, not just use them.\n• A flat, access-driven culture where senior consultants engage directly with practice and business leadership.","description_format":"text","description_chars":6674,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":10,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":10,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"bachelor","optional":true},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"India","iso":"IN","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Artificial Intelligence","Biotechnology","Cybersecurity","IT Consulting & Digital Transformation"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-26T10:18:15Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":56,"band":"ok","label":"Likely open","p_open":1,"p_active":0.62,"p_room":0.9,"age_days":11,"expected_fill_days":31,"reasons":["conf:0","stale_co","velocity","win:mid"],"computed_at":"2026-11-02T06:13:15Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/nobl-q-private-limited-sap-solution-architect","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/nobl-q-private-limited-sap-solution-architect.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-02T21:23:13Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":29853,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-03T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":3800596},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=3800596"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fnobl-q-private-limited-sap-solution-architect"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fnobl-q-private-limited-sap-solution-architect"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fnobl-q-private-limited-sap-solution-architect"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/nobl-q-private-limited-sap-solution-architect\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fnobl-q-private-limited-sap-solution-architect"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":3267815}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"noblq.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":3267815},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
