SAP Implementation Engineer

Laurel is on a mission to return time. As the leading AI Time platform for professional services firms, we’re transforming how organizations capture, analyze, and optimize their most valuable resource: time. Our proprietary machine learning technology automates work time capture and connects time data to business outcomes, enabling firms to increase profitability, improve client delivery, and make data-driven strategic decisions. We serve many of the world's largest accounting and law firms, including EY, Aprio, Crowell & Moring, and Frost Brown Todd, and process over 1 billion work activities annually that have never been collected and aggregated before Laurel’s AI Time platform.

Our team comprises top talent in AI, product development, and engineering—innovative, humble, and forward-thinking professionals committed to redefining productivity in the knowledge economy. We're building solutions that empower workers to deliver twice the value in half the time, giving people more time to be creative and impactful. If you're passionate about transforming how people work and building a lasting company that explores the essence of time itself, we'd love to meet you.

We're looking for a technically skilled Implementation Engineer to support our clients' ongoing technical operations and critical system transitions. In this role, you'll work alongside our Principal Partner Engineers to ensure seamless integrations between Laurel and client Practice Management Systems (PMS), ERP platforms, and other business-critical systems, resolve complex technical issues, and guide clients through high-stakes system migrations.

A key focus of this role is supporting clients operating within complex ERP environments. Hands-on experience with SAP S/4HANA is important, including an understanding of ERP integrations, data flows, system dependencies, and troubleshooting across connected platforms. Experience working with other enterprise ERP systems is also highly valuable.

This is a hybrid role that combines DevOps monitoring, technical troubleshooting, ERP and PMS integrations, and client-facing support. You'll be the escalation point for internal teams when integrations fail, systems go down, or data isn't flowing correctly. You'll investigate issues across Laurel, SAP S/4HANA and other ERP environments, Practice Management Systems, APIs, and related integration layers to identify root causes and coordinate resolutions.

While much of your work happens behind the scenes, you'll also interact directly with client technical contacts to diagnose issues, coordinate fixes, support system migrations and ERP transitions, and ensure their billing operations run smoothly.

You'll join the Implementation team, which owns the complete technical relationship between Laurel and client Practice Management Systems. Despite the name, "Implementation" does far more than just onboard new clients—we handle ongoing feature development, DevOps monitoring, performance optimization, and troubleshooting throughout the entire customer lifecycle.

Our team includes Principal Partner Engineers who are experts in complex integrations and system architecture. As an Implementation Engineer, you'll work closely with them, handling the operational and support aspects that allow them to focus on strategic technical work and new implementations.
