Luca Pacor
Last position:
ERP Program Manager at Fiserv
The client is undergoing a comprehensive transformation. All SAP ECC landscapes worldwide are being migrated to SAP S/4HANA, with the goal of introducing a global standard template.
The program also includes the migration and modernization initiative "RISE with SAP", which may involve migrating selected country installations to the SAP Private Cloud.
On the stakeholder side, the program's reporting line extends up to the company's board and the implementation partner's board.
Fiserv Germany's ERP landscape currently includes several non-standard SAP tools and applications that extend the ECC environment's functionality and often integrate with downstream systems. As part of the move to SAP S/4HANA, it is essential to assess the core functionality, integration points, and future viability of these applications to determine their alignment with the target architecture.
The focus of the role is to provide expert advice and assessment to define the scope, strategy, and roadmap for migrating Fiserv Germany's SAP ECC system to SAP S/4HANA.
SAP's recommended best practices are followed, and a structured approach is used to ensure a smooth transition with minimal disruption while maximizing business value.
This assessment forms the basis for a successful SAP S/4HANA transformation, ensuring alignment with industry best practices, regulatory compliance, and future scalability.
Migration strategy definition – evaluating available transition approaches based on business objectives, technical feasibility, and SAP best practices.
Technical readiness assessment – conducting a system analysis to assess compatibility, custom code impact, data volume management, integration points, and infrastructure readiness for SAP S/4HANA.
Business process impact analysis – reviewing the latest business process documentation to define the scope and effort needed to implement required functions in SAP S/4HANA and identify process optimization opportunities.
Roadmap for non-SAP systems and applications – evaluating third-party and legacy applications for SAP S/4HANA integration and recommending consolidation, migration, or replacement strategies.
Deployment & implementation planning – defining a phased rollout approach, including project timelines, risk mitigation strategies, and key milestones aligned with business priorities.
The transformation is carried out in phases: the discovery phase leads to the explore phase, which then leads to the design phase and finally to the implementation phase.

About the technology
Backup control
Dell EMC NetWorker is an enterprise backup and recovery system used to protect servers, databases, virtual machines, and file systems. It helps companies define backup policies, store recovery data, and restore services after failure or data loss. Many search for it as NetWorker or EMC NetWorker.
Typical work
- Full and incremental backup design
- Recovery testing and restore runbooks
- Client and storage node setup
- Media, retention, and catalog maintenance
- Policy tuning for mixed workloads
Ecosystem fit
Strong specialists know how NetWorker connects with storage, tape libraries, virtualization layers, and database agents. They also understand how backup windows, deduplication, and offsite copies affect day-to-day operations. In Germany, this often matters for regulated industries that need clear recovery routines.
When to bring in help
Companies usually need freelance expertise during migrations, failed restores, catalog rebuilds, or when backup jobs become slow and fragile. It also helps when teams must document recovery processes for audits or hand over an aging environment. Local or remote collaboration works well if access and change control are clear.
What strong specialists do
- Diagnose failed jobs and restore issues
- Review policy design and client coverage
- Check storage targets and backup consistency
- Improve monitoring and alert handling
- Document recovery steps for operations teams
Quality signals
Good NetWorker professionals work from logs, job history, and recovery tests, not assumptions. They can explain the difference between backup success and restore readiness, and they know how to validate the whole chain from client to storage to recovery. Look for clear notes, safe changes, and practical test restores.
Frequently asked questions
Questions about Dell EMC NetWorker? Start with the answers below.
Dell EMC NetWorker is used for enterprise backup, recovery, and long-term protection of business data. Companies use it to secure servers, databases, virtual machines, and file systems, then restore them after outages, mistakes, or corruption.
NetWorker is the product name many specialists still use, while EMC NetWorker and Dell EMC NetWorker are common names people see in older environments and documentation. In practice, searchers usually mean the same backup and recovery platform.
Dell EMC NetWorker is often chosen for complex enterprise environments with mixed systems, agent-based backups, and strict recovery processes. Compared with simpler backup tools, it usually needs more careful design, but it can fit larger operations where recovery control matters.
A strong Dell EMC NetWorker specialist usually knows storage concepts, Linux or Windows administration, database backup basics, and virtual machine recovery. Knowledge of tape libraries, deduplication, retention policies, and logging tools is also useful.
A Dell EMC NetWorker project can be handled by a specialist with focused hands-on experience if the scope is clear. Migrations, catalog recovery, and complex restore problems need deeper practical knowledge than a routine client setup.
Yes, much Dell EMC NetWorker work can be done remotely if the specialist gets access to logs, policies, and the backup console. On-site help is more useful when hardware, tape systems, or local change windows require physical presence in Germany.
A strong NetWorker specialist can explain the backup chain, identify why a job failed, and prove that restores actually work. Ask for examples of recovery testing, policy cleanup, and how they documented changes for operations teams.
For a Dell EMC NetWorker assignment, prepare a clear system list, backup goals, known failures, and access details for logs and configuration. The best specialists can move faster when they see the current topology, retention rules, and restore priorities early.
