We're builders touching over 20 industries and 80% of global commerce, and we need your unique talents to help shape what's next. The work is challenging - but it matters. You'll find a place where you can be yourself, prioritize your wellbeing, and truly belong. What's in it for you? Constant learning, skill growth, great benefits, and a team that wants you to grow and succeed.\n\nWhat You’ll Do\nJoin SAP Cloud Infrastructure and help build the next generation of cloud services and platform capabilities powering SAP’s cloud environments. As a Senior AI Platform Engineer, you will design and build scalable cloud-native solutions that solve complex engineering challenges at enterprise scale. Depending on your experience, you may work on cloud services, AI-enabled applications, platform engineering, or European open-source initiatives such as ApeiroRA and NeoNephos.\nA key initiative in our team is the SCI Agentic AI platform: a multi-agent system progressing from real-time analysis and recommendations to fully autonomous, self-learning cloud operations, reducing MTTR, eliminating toil, and lowering TCO.\nDesign, develop, and operate scalable cloud-native applications, services, and APIs using Go, Python, and Kubernetes.\nDrive the agentic AI platform workstream: plan, coordinate, and deliver across engineering teams, aligned to our roadmap (Semantic Data Foundation, Anomaly Detection, Root Cause Analysis, Runbook Automation).\nArchitect multi-agent systems integrating LLMs, prediction models, knowledge graphs, and operational data for autonomous infrastructure operations.\nDevelop and productionize ML/AI capabilities including anomaly detection, root cause analysis, and runbook automation.\nDrive technical designs and contribute to architecture decisions for strategic cloud and AI initiatives.\nCoordinate cross-functional initiatives, managing dependencies, milestones, and technical documentation.\nImprove software quality through automation, CI/CD, observability, and engineering best practices.\nWhat You Bring\nTechnical Foundation\nSeveral years of experience building and operating production-grade software.\nStrong programming skills in Go (preferred) and/or Python.\nHands-on experience with Kubernetes and cloud-native architectures (microservices, APIs, distributed systems).\nSolid understanding of software architecture, scalability, reliability, security, and performance.\nExperience with CI/CD, automated testing, DevSecOps, and software engineering best practices.\nAI, Agentic AI & Data Science\nStrong understanding of AI and Machine Learning concepts: model training, inference, evaluation, and deployment.\nExperience with or knowledge of agentic AI patterns: multi-agent architectures, tool-use agents, reasoning loops, and agent orchestration.\nFamiliarity with LLMs and generative AI: prompt engineering, RAG, fine-tuning, or integrating LLMs into production systems.\nExperience with data science fundamentals: data pipelines, feature engineering, anomaly detection, or predictive modeling.\nProgram & Workstream Management\nProven ability to lead and coordinate complex technical workstreams across multiple teams.\nExperience translating strategy and roadmaps into actionable delivery plans.\nComfortable operating in ambiguity: structuring problems, making trade-offs, and driving decisions.\nProfessional Skills\nComfortable collaborating across teams, cultures, and locations.\nAble to communicate technical topics clearly to engineers, architects, and leadership.\nStructured, reliable, and able to take ownership while working collaboratively.\nWe don’t expect you to have experience with every technology listed. If you have a strong foundation in several of these areas and are interested in learning the others, we’d be happy to hear from you.\nMeet the Team\nYou will join SAP Cloud Infrastructure, where we build the infrastructure powering SAP's Autonomous Enterprise, sovereign, and regulated cloud environments, leveraging technologies including OpenStack, Kubernetes/Gardener, Ceph, Prometheus, and more. Our engineering culture is hands-on and collaborative. We work on real infrastructure problems, share what we learn, and believe a private cloud is something you build, not something you rent.\nDuring the application and selection process, candidates will be informed which manager they will be working with upon hiring. We look forward to your application! \nDepending on project assignment, candidates may need to be eligible for security clearance under German law.\n\nBring out your best\nSAP innovations help more than four hundred thousand customers worldwide work together more efficiently and use business insight more effectively.
