The work

As the SAP Automation Lead, you will play a pivotal role in guiding the automation and quality assurance efforts for a major SAP ECC to S/4

HANA migration and implementation program for a large Department of Defense client. Your responsibilities will include overseeing the design, development, and deployment of both attended and unattended automation solutions using UiPath, while ensuring seamless integration with UiPath Orchestrator.
