About the job

Requirements
  • At least 3 years of professional experience.
  • 15 years of full-time education.
  • Strong hands-on expertise with SAP BTP Integration Suite concepts and building blocks, including cloud integration, integration flows, transformation patterns, and monitoring.
  • Ability to implement message mappings, routing patterns, and transformation logic across enterprise data formats.
  • Practical scripting capability, such as Groovy, for advanced integration-flow customization and performance tuning.
  • Solid API design and management fundamentals covering security, throttling, lifecycle and versioning, and observability.
  • AI-native delivery capability involving tool-augmented workflows, retrieval-grounded outputs, measurable evaluation loops, and safe action boundaries.
Responsibilities
  • Design, develop, and run end-to-end integration scenarios across cloud, on-premise, and hybrid landscapes, enabling reliable connectivity across SAP and non-SAP systems.
  • Build, structure, and manage large integration flows with modularity, reusability, and maintainability for enterprise-scale use.
  • Create and maintain integration flows using routing, splitting, gathering, and other transformation patterns.
  • Implement message mappings and data transformations for JSON, XML, CSV, and other enterprise formats, ensuring semantic correctness and downstream compatibility.
  • Apply canonical modeling and contract-first practices to reduce brittle point-to-point dependencies.
  • Use scripting such as Groovy to implement complex transformation logic, enrichment, validation, and conditional execution paths.
  • Implement message persistence patterns such as data stores to support idempotency, retries, correlation, and resilience.
  • Design and expose secure APIs through API management capabilities, including policies, authentication and authorization, throttling, and versioning.
  • Integrate with third-party applications using connector-based approaches and standardized integration patterns.
  • Enable event-driven integration using messaging and event capabilities for near-real-time propagation and decoupled architectures.
  • Build integration agents that generate initial integration flows from system or endpoint selections and naming conventions, then validate them against enterprise standards.
  • Implement retrieval-grounded assistance using interface catalogs, mapping specifications, standards, runbooks, and known incident patterns to produce verifiable recommendations.
  • Apply intelligent recommendations for mapping and configuration to accelerate development and reduce rework.
  • Develop AI-driven anomaly detection and prediction for integration and API behavior, with human-in-the-loop controls for remediation actions.
  • Optimize and analyze scripts used in integration flows for performance and maintainability through AI-assisted code analysis.
  • Build automated integration testing strategies covering schema and contract validation, payload regression suites, replay testing, and tool-driven API testing.
  • Implement AI evaluation harnesses with offline golden test sets and online monitoring for generated mappings, generated flows, and operational recommendations.
  • Establish release gates for integration changes and AI prompt or tool updates to prevent silent degradation.
  • Set up monitoring dashboards and alerts for flows, APIs, and event-driven pipelines, establishing traceability with correlation IDs and end-to-end tracking.
  • Diagnose and resolve integration issues using structured logs, message traces, and failure-mode analysis.
  • Create AI-native operational experiences such as conversational root-cause analysis, runbook-guided remediation, and impact analysis bounded by role-based access and approval workflows.
  • Apply integration advisory practices to design hybrid integration platforms and define integration best practices across teams.
  • Use integration assessment approaches to improve integration maturity, standardize patterns, and automate repeatable architectural governance where feasible.
Desired Qualifications
  • Event-driven integration design and enterprise messaging patterns.
  • Connector-based integrations with third-party software-as-a-service ecosystems.
  • Migration and modernization experience from legacy integration platforms to cloud integration.
  • Integration governance and advisory methodologies for enterprise-wide standardization.

Accenture shares up 77% from June low as Oct. 14 Investor Day nears

Accenture will hold an Investor Day on October 14, where it is expected to detail its long-term strategy, AI monetisation plans, growth guidance, and margin expansion goals. The event follows a rebound in its shares after fears that AI would erode traditional consulting work. The stock hit a low of $118.15 in June, down from a January high of $291.09. It has since gained nearly 77%, helped by fourth-quarter results on October 1 and an expanded collaboration with Dell Technologies. Fourth-quarter revenue rose 6% to $18.7 billion, and new bookings reached $22.2 billion. Accenture expects fiscal 2027 revenue growth of 3% to 6% in local currency. It raised its quarterly dividend by 5% to $1.71 per share, payable November 13, 2026. Its market capitalisation is about $139.6 billion.

TM Forum and Accenture launch industry's first AI trust certification for telcos

TM Forum has launched a multi-year Trustworthy AI programme with Accenture to help telecoms deploy autonomous operations with verifiable trust standards. The initiative will deliver the industry's first Trustworthy AI Governance Certification, providing a benchmark for trusted AI deployment. Recent TM Forum research found that whilst 72% of communications service providers believe their AI capabilities are trustworthy, only 14% can verify their claims. The programme aims to transform AI trust from aspiration into measurable operational capability. The certification will help organisations assess governance maturity, workforce readiness, and operational accountability needed to scale AI autonomously. It will operate through TM Forum's AI-Native Collaboration Studios, where telecoms operators, vendors, and partners will contribute real-world use cases to shape the framework.

Accenture surges 17% on Q4 beat with $18.7B revenue, but analyst warns stock fully priced at 15x forward earnings

Accenture shares surged 17% on Thursday after reporting strong fourth-quarter results. The company posted revenue of $18.7 billion, up 6% year-over-year, while earnings per share jumped 46% to $3.29. Management's full-year revenue growth forecast of 4.5% exceeded analyst expectations of 4%. Net bookings rose 4% to $22.2 billion. The company plans to return at least $9.5 billion to shareholders this financial year. However, TD Cowen analyst Bryan Bergin maintained a hold rating, citing concerns that the stock is fully priced at 15 times forward earnings. He cautioned that one strong quarter may represent a cyclical bounce rather than structural growth acceleration. Despite this, Wall Street remains optimistic, with a "moderate buy" consensus rating. Accenture currently offers a 3.05% dividend yield.
