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?

What you´ll build

Join our Governance, Compliance and Certifications team and help keep SAP’s cloud portfolio trusted and audit ready.

Together with the team, you will document current evidence workflows, highlight bottlenecks, suggest pragmatic improvements, and create lightweight trackers that increase transparency and reduce rework. You will also contribute to responsible AI enablement under close guidance.
We are looking for a curious, reliable and detail oriented student who communicates clearly and enjoys structured project work. In return, you will build market relevant skills in cloud attestations, control harmonization, process excellence, and responsible AI—delivering tangible outcomes in a supportive, high trust team.
