• Lead the SAP automation pilot program for identified business processes.
• Analyze existing SAP workflows and identify automation opportunities.
• Design and implement process automation solutions across SAP modules.
• Build proof of concepts (POCs), pilot bots, and automation workflows.
• Work with business stakeholders to define automation scope, KPIs, and success metrics.
• Integrate automation solutions with SAP ECC / S4HANA environments.
• Support UAT, deployment, and hypercare during pilot rollout.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams on process optimization and automation roadmap.
• Ensure proper documentation, governance, and transition support.
• Recommend scale-up opportunities post successful pilot completion.
