Foundation Model Team · Newport Beach, CA

Summary

We're building specialized foundation models and AI agents that accelerate SAP customers' data transformation journeys.

The agents you build will directly power SAP's Autonomous Enterprise, where AI runs core business processes end-to-end across finance, supply chain, HR, and procurement at global scale.

You'll set technical direction, define how we architect and scale multi-agent systems, and raise the engineering bar across a global team. You'll work directly with pretraining and fine-tuning team leads in Europe, India, and early-adopter customers.

We want someone who has shipped agentic systems in production and knows where they break.

What you'll do

• Architect and lead multi-agent systems: design, orchestration patterns, failure modes, memory, planning, and human-in-the-loop

• Own the path from prototype to production: containerization, guardrails, cost and latency optimization, scalable serving

• Define the team's evaluation strategy: offline/online harnesses, trajectory quality, tool-call accuracy, regression testing, CI/CD eval gates
