About Databricks
At Databricks, our mission is to help data teams solve the world's toughest problems—and that begins with empowering our own employees with exceptional internal products. The Databricks IT organization is a product-led engineering team building intelligent, AI-powered platforms that simplify how work gets done across the company. For Finance, our vision is to eliminate manual, repetitive work by automating complex business processes, surfacing actionable insights, and orchestrating end-to-end workflows. We are reimagining finance operations so teams spend less time processing transactions, chasing approvals, and resolving exceptions, and more time delivering strategic insights that accelerate the business.
We're looking for an SAP Functional SME to own the functional design of our core finance processes on S/4HANA and to shape how AI and agentic automation reimagine them. In this role, you'll be the deep functional authority for your domain—translating how the business actually runs into standard, clean-core S/4HANA solutions, using process intelligence to find what's broken, and defining where AI belongs in a controlled, auditable process . You'll work at the intersection of SAP and AI, bridging Finance and Engineering to deliver a simpler, smarter, more automated experience.
The Opportunity
SAP will serve as the foundation for Databricks' core finance processes, including Record-to-Report, Source-to-Pay, and Order-to-Cash. As the SAP Functional SME, you'll own the functional blueprint for those processes—leading discovery and AS-IS/TO-BE design, configuring S/4HANA, and defining the requirements for the intelligent, agentic layer that automates routine work and guides users through exceptions and approvals. You'll use process mining and business process intelligence to quantify opportunity and prioritize what to build, and you'll make the call on where AI-driven recommendations belong versus deterministic rules. Your mission is to combine deep functional expertise with the power of Databricks AI to create a modern, highly automated finance experience that lets the business scale.
What You'll Do
• Own Functional Design: Lead end-to-end process discovery and AS-IS/TO-BE design for major finance processes (Record-to-Report, Source-to-Pay, Order-to-Cash), define S/4HANA solution scope, and design to standard, clean-core capabilities wherever possible.
• Configure S/4HANA: Own functional configuration, business rules, and master-data strategy for your domain, and partner with developers on extensions, APIs, and orchestration where standard functionality falls short.
• Drive Process Intelligence: Use process mining and business process intelligence (leveraging SAP Process Intelligence and related tools) to identify root causes, quantify opportunity, and prioritize improvements; translate those findings into concrete S/4HANA requirements.
• Shape the AI & Agentic Layer: Define the requirements for AI-as
