Job Description

 

What you'll bring

You are an expert AI engineer with deep SAP Business Technology Platform (BTP) knowledge and a track record of delivering AI solutions for enterprise customers.

Proficiency in Python  and JavaScript, with experience building and deploying machine learning  models — including for classification, regression, and anomaly detection —  end to end.

Hands-on knowledge of  agentic frameworks, including LangGraph and LangChain, and experience with      Model Context Protocol (MCP), Agent-to-Agent (A2A) architectures, and      multi-agent pipelines.

Deep expertise across  SAP BTP services — SAP AI Core, Generative AI Hub, SAP HANA Cloud, SAP Integration Suite, and SAP Build.

Experience with extract,  transform, and load (ETL) processes, data pipelines, predictive modelling,      and data science tools including Jupyter and Pandas.

Solid grounding in  application architecture, DevOps, CI/CD practices, AI security, data      governance, and SAP Fiori application development.

A degree in Computer  Science, Engineering, or a related field with 10 years of  10 years of expertise in various applicable technical roles experience.

We also look for people who think strategically, understand the business, and can bring others along with them — combining influencing skills and emotional intelligence with the ability to work through complex problems confidently.

In addition to the skills and experience specific to this role, all positions at SAP require candidates who are comfortable using AI tools — including agentic AI — in their day-to-day work, from crafting effective inputs and automating routine tasks, to evaluating AI-generated outputs for quality and driving adoption of AI practices within their teams.

What you'll build

You will design and deliver customer-facing AI proof of concepts on SAP BTP, turning complex AI capabilities into real outcomes for customers and partners.

Develop and deploy machine learning models on SAP BTP, integrating with SAP AI Core,  Generative AI Hub, and open-source frameworks.

Design agentic AI  architectures — including multi-agent swarms, MCP integrations, and A2A      pipelines — using LangGraph, LangChain, and BTP AI services.

Build front-end   applications in JavaScript, HTML, and SAP Fiori web components to surface      AI capabilities directly to end users.

Apply data science  techniques and statistical analysis to build predictive models that inform customer decisions.

Define reusable AI  development patterns and contribute to SAP's best practices for AI on BTP.

Research emerging AI  technologies and share findings with customers, partners, and SAP colleagues.

Where you belong

You will join the SAP Customer Value Group's AI Center of Excellence (AI4U), a team built around one motto: Inspire, Innovate, Implement: AI on BTP. The team works directly with customers to source, design, and execute AI proof of concepts, and shapes SAP's best practices for enterprise AI development on the platform. You will work alongside specialists in data strategy, vectorisation, knowledge graphs, SAP Build, and agentic frameworks. The team values curiosity, creativity, and an equal commitment to teaching and learning from each other.
