ABB, Swisscom, and Novartis are among the more consistent hirers, and demand has increasingly favoured developers who combine core ABAP skills with Fiori and OData experience for the newer cloud-facing SAP interfaces.

Demand is high and growing, driven by S/4HANA migration deadlines pushing large enterprises to remediate and modernise custom ABAP code through 2025 into 2026. Developers with S/4HANA-specific experience are notably harder to find than those with only ECC background.
ABB, Swisscom, Novartis, and Roche are among the largest in-house hirers. NTT Data Business Solutions and Bison Schweiz are active SAP implementation partners that hire ABAP developers for client engagements across Switzerland.
