Hi,
Get trained in SAP ABAP from some authorized institute.
ABAP is the language on which the SAP works.

Raj,
I think we need just a bit more about your current skillset. DBA is a buzzword that would send you down a NetWeaver System Administrator (a.k.a. Basis) path, but developer is a buzzword that would send you down a programming track. SAP utilizes a proprietary programming language called ABAP, but it also uses JAVA for a significant subset of it's functionality. Tech Team Lead indicates a more managerial skillset and the word design leans us back over towards the programming side.
What tasks/activities do you enjoy most, DBA, programming, and/or managerial?
I've gathered up a few blogs which might help:
A blog series for folks trying to learn SAP when they don't have an SAP job already
- Learning SAP when you don't have an SAP job already - Web Sites
- Learning SAP when you don't have an SAP job already - Books
- Learning SAP when you don't have an SAP job already - System Access
- Learning SAP when you don't have an SAP job already - Authorized Classes
I have written a few blogs and started a few conversations which touch on this indirectly:
- FAQ: Middle and Late SAP Career Paths
- Advice for Recent College Graduates (aka "Freshers")
- How did you get your start in SAP?
- Storytime! How did you get your start in SAP?
There are a few blogs by other authors which I also think will be very helpful for you
- Valuable lessons to make the most of your SAP Career
- Employment in the Agile Business
- How an SAP ABAP Career Can Be Like a Train Journey
- What should a fresher in SAP do?
Hope this helps!
Best regards,
--Tom
