An exciting opportunity has arisen for a SAP Finance Systems Developer to join a global leader in embedded semiconductor solutions, based in Penang with the flexibility of remote work.

This role is perfect for someone who thrives on supporting and enhancing finance business applications, particularly within SAP environments, and enjoys collaborating with both technical and non-technical colleagues. You will play a pivotal part in ensuring seamless product costing operations, working closely with business analysts and end users to deliver efficient, user-friendly solutions. The organisation offers a supportive, inclusive culture that values diversity and encourages professional growth through continuous learning and development opportunities. With a hybrid working model, you can enjoy the benefits of both remote and in-office collaboration, making this an ideal position for those seeking balance, challenge, and the chance to make a real impact.

  • Enjoy flexible working arrangements with the option to work remotely two days per week while benefiting from collaborative in-office days focused on innovation and learning.
  • Be part of a diverse, global team dedicated to developing sustainable, power-efficient solutions that improve lives across automotive, industrial, infrastructure, and IoT sectors.
  • Access ongoing training opportunities and support from Employee Resource Groups within an inclusive environment committed to your wellbeing and professional advancement.

What you'll do:

As a SAP Finance Systems Developer, you will be at the heart of the organisation’s efforts to streamline product costing processes within SAP and associated finance systems. Your day-to-day responsibilities will involve close collaboration with both IT professionals and business users to ensure that all aspects of finance application support run smoothly. You will be instrumental in collecting requirements, designing tailored solutions, configuring systems, writing detailed documentation, and supporting rigorous testing procedures. By providing ongoing post-implementation support and handling incident resolution promptly, you will help maintain high levels of operational efficiency. Additionally, your ability to communicate complex technical information clearly will empower end users to fully leverage new features and improvements. Success in this role means not only delivering robust technical solutions but also fostering strong relationships across teams through knowledge sharing and empathetic support.

  • Collaborate with other SAP Finance Analysts to support business users in their daily operations by providing expert guidance on SAP and related finance applications.
  • Assist business analysts in gathering requirements, translating them into effective design proposals that align with organisational needs.
  • Perform SAP configurations as required, ensuring all custom program developments are well-documented with detailed specifications.
  • Support testing activities by helping business users validate automated solutions before deployment.
  • Provide comprehensive post go-live support for SAP implementations and development activities within Impact ECS.
  • Analyse incidents raised by users, troubleshoot issues efficiently, and deliver practical solutions to maintain system stability.
  • Manage change requests by thoroughly understanding new business requirements and implementing appropriate system enhancements.
  • Develop clear documentation for configuration changes, system enhancements, test scripts, end-user manuals, and training materials.
  • Train key stakeholders and end users on new functionalities while explaining technical concepts in accessible language to non-technical audiences.

What you bring:

To excel as a SAP Finance Systems Developer, you will bring a blend of technical expertise and interpersonal sensitivity that enables you to bridge the gap between IT systems and business needs. Your background in finance or technology equips you with the analytical skills needed for complex problem-solving while your scripting abilities allow you to automate processes effectively. Experience with secure file transfer protocols ensures data integrity across platforms. Your familiarity with SQL Server empowers you to manage large datasets confidently. If you possess additional knowledge of accounting principles or semiconductor manufacturing workflows, you will find it easier to understand user requirements in context. Prior exposure to SAP CO modules or Impact ECS development further strengthens your candidacy. Above all, your capacity for clear communication—especially when training or supporting end users—will set you apart as a dependable partner who helps others succeed.

  • Undergraduate degree in Finance, Accounting, Computer Science, Technology or a related field is essential for this position.
  • Proven experience with VB Script and Javascript is required to develop customised automation within finance applications.
  • Demonstrated proficiency in Powershell scripting using ISE is necessary for managing system tasks efficiently.
  • Solid understanding of SFTP protocols along with hands-on experience using Putty and WinScp tools is important for secure data transfers.
  • Comprehensive knowledge of SQL Server operations including SQL and some T-SQL programming is vital for database management tasks.
  • Ability to quickly grasp accounting concepts enhances your effectiveness when working alongside finance professionals (nice to have).
  • Familiarity with semiconductor manufacturing processes provides valuable context for supporting industry-specific requirements (nice to have).
  • Experience supporting or implementing SAP CO modules adds depth to your skill set (nice to have).
  • Exposure to Impact ECS development is advantageous for contributing to specialised costing projects (nice to have).
