Job Description

What you'll bring

You're a student with a genuine interest in AI and software development — ready to build real applications and grow your skills in a hands-on, global environment. You're curious, collaborative, and a clear communicator — someone who thinks creatively and tackles complex problems head on.

• Currently enrolled in an undergraduate or master's degree in Computer Science, a computing-related field, or equivalent experience
• Solid programming skills in Python, Java, or JavaScript, with willingness to develop in Python for AI work
• Sound understanding of data structures, algorithms, and software design; basic familiarity with APIs, databases, Git, and testing
• Hands-on experience building at least one AI application or prototype — coursework, projects, or hackathons all count — with some practical exposure to large language models (LLMs), prompting, or retrieval-augmented generation (RAG)
• A customer-focused mindset — you consider the end-user impact of the work you deliver
• An open, curious approach to AI — you embrace human–AI collaboration, take responsibility for the quality of AI outputs, and use prompting and AI-assisted tools to build smarter solutions

What you'll build

You'll work on live AI applications that support software governance and compliance workflows, contributing to real engineering tasks from day one. Your mentors will guide you and help you develop skills that go well beyond the classroom.

• Explore and prototype AI applications for knowledge retrieval, information extraction, and workflow automation in software compliance
• Develop and test features using LLMs, model APIs, or open source models, and integrate them with existing tools
• Create test sets, compare outputs, and investigate errors to improve the quality and reliability of AI applications
• Apply responsible AI practices — support traceable outputs and human review, and account for data confidentiality and model limitations
• Contribute to the full development cycle — from design and implementation through to testing, debugging, and documentation
• Try new AI techniques and tools and share practical findings with the team

Where you belong

You'll join the Global Technology Legal Compliance team at SAP, where the mission is to support the responsible use of third-party software in SAP products through smart tooling and automation. It's a collaborative environment where curiosity is valued, guidance is given freely, and your contributions make a real difference. When you join SAP, you'll be a part of SAP Next Gen — a global community of students and early professionals with access to mentors, development programmes, and peers. Your internship at SAP is a launchpad built on real skills and lasting connections.
