About the Position

Development Architect in Enterprise Performance Management Team

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

You will help build the next generation of SAP Business AI for Enterprise Performance Management (EPM) and Financial Planning & Analysis (FP&A), embedding LLMs, predictive forecasting, agents, and RAG directly into SAP’s financial core.

Our vision is to transform FP&A into a decision-intelligence hub that unifies data across finance, supply chain, and HR. Through agentic workflows and generative insights, we enable organizations to not only predict the future but to shape it, ensuring that every financial decision is grounded in deep, cross-functional context and global compliance. This AI-native approach turns finance teams into strategic partners who can predict and shape future outcomes.

As a greenfield initiative, you’ll help define the technical architecture from scratch. Supported by SAP’s latest technologies - Business Technology Platform, SAP Analytics Cloud, and Business AI - you’ll decide how to combine them into a category-defining product. You will be part of an Empowered Product Team in close (daily) collaboration with Product Management and User Experience.
