Job Description

We help the world run better
At SAP, we keep it simple: you bring your best to us, and we'll bring out the best in you. 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.

What you’ll build

As part of SAP Integration Suite's API Management solution, the API Experience group enables customers to transform their complex API ecosystems into AI-ready business assets. A cornerstone of this approach is our API Composition technology, which provides unified access to semantically connected, integrated APIs through a graph of entities.

As an (Associate) Developer, you will:

  • Design, develop, and maintain solutions that transform siloed API access into unified experiences by connecting semantically related APIs through an entity relationship graph.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to develop our API technologies as part of SAP Integration Suite and API Management solutions.
  • Optimize API performance for scalability and reliability.
  • Troubleshoot and resolve technical issues related to API usage.
  • Shape best practices and contribute to technical documentation.

What you bring

We're looking for a passionate and skilled (associate) developer who brings:

  • Foundational computer science knowledge (e.g. data structures and algorithms), familiarity with object-oriented design, and an understanding of querying relational databases (e.g. SQL)
  • Programming skills in languages such as JavaScript, TypeScript, and Golang – ideally in AI-assisted development environments.
  • First Hands-on experience in Graph API development using GraphQL, OData, REST, or BAPI.
  • First cloud-native expertise with Kubernetes and other CNCF technologies.
  • A solid understanding of applied AI, in particular "agentic API consumption" with MCP.
  • Problem-solving abilities and a collaborative mindset.
  • A commitment to continuous learning and staying updated on emerging technologies.

Where you belong

At SAP, you'll join a diverse and inclusive team where your ideas and contributions matter. You'll work in an environment that values innovation, collaboration, and personal growth, empowering you to make an impact.

Join us to shape the future of technology and create solutions that matter!
