Hi, I'm Serhat Mercan 👋

SAP Technical Lead | SAP BTP & Generative AI | ABAP & SAP Fiori/UI5

I'm a Software Engineer and SAP Technical Lead with 8+ years of experience delivering enterprise SAP solutions across SAP S/4HANA, ABAP, SAP Fiori/UI5, OData, SAP Gateway, CDS and enterprise integration.

My current focus is SAP BTP, SAP Business AI and Generative AI for SAP — applying them to build intelligent, maintainable and business-oriented SAP solutions on top of a solid engineering foundation.


Current Focus

  • Generative AI for SAP
  • SAP BTP & SAP Business AI
  • SAP AI Core, AI Launchpad & Generative AI Hub
  • AI-assisted SAP modernization
  • ABAP Cloud, RAP & CDS
  • SAP Fiori/UI5 & Fiori Elements
  • Enterprise integration and solution architecture
  • Technical leadership

Selected Projects

Enterprise AI / SAP Modernization

Internal initiatives and R&D work — not public repositories.

  • Finance Intelligence Copilot — Internal R&D initiative exploring how Generative AI can support SAP Finance decision-making with evidence-based explanations, deterministic controls and human approval.
  • AI-Assisted SAP ABAP Cloud Modernization — Initiative focused on modernizing legacy SAP solutions toward ABAP Cloud/RAP/CDS patterns with AI-assisted engineering support.

Public GitHub Portfolio

  • UIGuide — Practical SAP Fiori/UI5 engineering reference and UI development notes.
  • CDSGuide — Chapter-based ABAP CDS reference covering modelling, annotations, functions, access control and service exposure.
  • ABAPGuide — Practical ABAP engineering reference covering classic, object-oriented and modern ABAP patterns.
  • GWGuide — SAP Gateway / OData V2 engineering reference for SEGW-based enterprise services.
  • CDS-Cookbook — Practical SAP CDS & AMDP pattern library.
  • telco-churn-predictor — Applied ML project using a scikit-learn pipeline, validation-selected threshold, SHAP explanations and a FastAPI web app.

SAP Engineering Stack

  • SAP Backend: ABAP · ABAP OO · CDS · RAP · BAPI/RFC · OData · SAP Gateway
  • SAP Frontend: SAP Fiori · SAPUI5 · Fiori Elements · JavaScript
  • SAP Cloud & AI: SAP BTP · SAP AI Core · AI Launchpad · Generative AI Hub · SAP CAP
  • Architecture: SAP S/4HANA · enterprise integration · solution architecture · technical leadership

AI & Data Work

Alongside enterprise Generative AI work, I also maintain applied learning projects in Python, data science and machine learning to strengthen my understanding of model evaluation, classification workflows and data-driven decision-making.

  • telco-churn-predictor — applied churn prediction project with model evaluation, validation-selected thresholding and FastAPI serving.
  • PYGuide — supporting Python reference cookbook.

My primary professional focus remains Generative AI for enterprise SAP solutions.


Open Source / Knowledge Sharing

I maintain chapter-based engineering references for the SAP topics I work with most — ABAP, ABAP CDS, SAP Fiori/UI5 and SAP Gateway — with the goal of keeping practical, reusable notes that other SAP developers can build on.
