Position Summary:
The Senior Application Security SAP Consultant is responsible for SAP application security and governance, risk, and compliance within an SAP S/4HANA environment, covering authorization design, role management, segregation of duties enforcement, and the access control evidence required to sustain system authorization and support financial audit, in support of a large-scale, greenfield SAP S/4HANA financial management modernization program for a Department of War (DoW) organization. As the senior SAP security authority on the program, the consultant owns the authorization concept and segregation of duties architecture, designs the governance, risk, and compliance control framework, and is accountable for access control evidence at audit and authorization milestones. This position operates at the Senior level of the C5MI job architecture and contributes to delivery across a five-gate milestone structure spanning pre-design approval, preliminary design review, critical design review, production readiness review, and closeout.
Note: This position is contingent upon contract award.
Essential Functions and Responsibilities:
-
Owns the SAP authorization concept for the program, including the role architecture, naming standards, derivation strategy, and the governance process for role change.
-
Designs the segregation of duties framework, including ruleset design and customization, risk definitions, and the mitigating control catalog with assigned ownership and monitoring frequency.
-
Designs the governance, risk, and compliance solution architecture across access risk analysis, access request management, business role management, and emergency access management.
-
Designs preventive segregation of duties enforcement so that access risk is evaluated and resolved before provisioning rather than detected after the fact, including risk simulation within the request workflow.
