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.
Join SAP Cloud Infrastructure and help build the next generation of cloud services and platform capabilities powering SAP's sovereign and regulated cloud environments.
As a Senior Agentic Platform Engineer, you will design and build scalable cloud-native solutions that solve complex engineering challenges at enterprise scale. Depending on your experience and interests, you may work on cloud services, AI-enabled applications, platform engineering, or European open-source initiatives such as ApeiroRA and NeoNephos.
What You’ll Do
Design, develop, and operate scalable cloud-native applications, services, APIs, and distributed systems using Go, Python, Kubernetes, and modern cloud-native technologies.
Drive technical designs and contribute to architecture decisions for strategic cloud initiatives, including AI and Generative AI use cases.
Develop innovative solutions and proofs of concept, including support for building an agentic harness and sandboxing environment.
Improve software quality through automation, CI/CD, observability, and engineering best practices.
Collaborate across teams to transform business requirements into reliable and secure solutions, mentoring engineers through technical leadership, code reviews, and knowledge sharing.
Contribute to open-source projects (e.g. ApeiroRA, NeoNephos) and the evolution of SAP's cloud platform capabilities.
What You Bring
Several years of experience building and operating production-grade cloud-native software using Go (preferred) and/or Python, with hands-on knowledge of Kubernetes, APIs, microservices, and distributed systems.
Solid understanding of software architecture, scalability, reliability, security, and performance, with the ability to drive solutions from concept to production.
Experience with CI/CD, automated testing, DevSecOps, and engineering best practices for building scalable and secure solutions.
Experience using AI tools for engineering tasks (coding, troubleshooting, automation) with the ability to critically evaluate AI-generated outputs; practical interest in LLM optimization and building MCP servers.
Strong communication and collaboration skills, comfortable working across teams, cultures, and locations; able to explain technical topics clearly in fluent English.
Curious and pragmatic problem solver who takes ownership, mentors peers through code reviews and knowledge sharing, and contributes to open-source communities.
We 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.
Where you belong:
You will join SAP Cloud Infrastructure, where we build the infrastructure behind SAP’s enterprise, sovereign, and regulated cloud environments using technologies such as OpenStack, Kubernetes/Gardener, Ceph, and Prometheus.
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.
