Sr. SAP HCM Migration Consultant (Hands-On L3 Configuration)

ADP ESI Migration Factory is hiring a Senior SAP Migration Consultant.

 

ADP is seeking a hands-on SAP HCM Consultant to support the GlobalView to RISE / S/4HANA migration program, one of the largest SAP Payroll transformations globally.

 

This role operates in a true Tier 3 / L3 capacity, requiring deep expertise in SAP HCM configuration, payroll, and production issue resolution.

 

This is not a coordination or ticket-routing role. You will be expected to:

• Diagnose issues independently
• Implement configuration fixes
• Understand system behavior at a technical-functional level

 

If you cannot differentiate between configuration issues and ABAP defects, or lack hands-on SPRO experience, this role is not a fit.

 

What You’ll Do

 

L3 Production Support (Core Focus)

• Troubleshoot complex SAP HCM issues without escalation
• Perform root cause analysis across:

o            Payroll (when applicable)

o            Personnel Admin

o            Organizational Management

• Analyze logs, tables, and system behavior to identify true system defects vs config gaps

 

Hands-On Configuration

• Execute configuration in SPRO
• Maintain and adjust:

o            Infotypes

o            Enterprise structure

o            Payroll elements (if applicable)

• Validate fixes through end-to-end system testing

 

Migration Execution (Factory Model)

• Execute structured, repeatable migration tasks with precision
• Perform:

o            Data validation

o            System checks

o            Pre/post migration activities

• Identify inconsistencies across environments and resolve them

 

ABAP Debugging & Technical Awareness (Required)

• Ability to read and debug ABAP code to support issue analysis
• Use debugging tools to:

o            Trace payroll and HCM processing logic

o            Identify whether issues are configuration or code-related

• Partner with ABAP teams but do not rely on them for initial diagnosis

 

This is not a developer role, but candidates MUST be able to debug and analyze code.

 

Technical Analysis

• Read/debug enough ABAP to:

o            Identify whether issue is config vs code

• Analyze:

o            SAP Notes

o            Support packs

o            Enhancements

 

Collaboration

• Work closely with:

o            Functional teams

o            Technical/ABAP teams

o            Migration factory team

• Communicate clearly with both technical and business stakeholders

 

Required Qualifications (Non-Negotiable)

• 5+ years hands-on SAP HCM configuration
• Proven experience in L3/Tier 3 support
• Strong ability to:

o            Perform root cause analysis independently

o            Work in SPRO/customizing

• Experience with:

o            Payroll or adjacent HCM modules

• Ability to:

o            Differentiate config vs code issues

• Ability to read and debug ABAP code to support issue analysis

 

Disqualifiers

• L1/L2 support only (ticket triage, no configuration)
• Cannot explain how issues are
