Ideal candidates should have equal parts capability and mindset.

What you'll bring

You are an experienced AI architect with a track record of driving adoption and value realization in enterprise accounts.

• Deep expertise in SAP Business AI Platform — AI Core, Joule, Joule Studio, Document AI — at both strategic and technical depth.
• Proficiency in agentic architecture — A2A, MCP, LLM/GenAI patterns — applied to enterprise use cases and AI-driven transformation.
• Proven record of leading Proofs of Concept under stakeholder scrutiny, from use case prioritization to value articulation.
• Experience engaging C-suite stakeholders — CFOs, CHROs, CIOs — with outcome-driven narratives grounded in business value.
• Ability to author architecture documentation, adoption roadmaps, and executive materials independently.
• Hands-on experience with AI change management and organizational readiness in digital transformation.
• Degree not required for this role.

We also look for people who think strategically, understand the business, and can bring others along with them — combining influencing skills and emotional intelligence with the ability to work through complex problems confidently.

In addition to the skills and experience specific to this role, all positions at SAP require candidates who are comfortable using AI tools — including agentic AI — in their day-to-day work, from crafting effective inputs and automating routine tasks, to evaluating AI-generated outputs for quality and driving adoption of AI practices within their teams.

What you'll build

You will own the end-to-end journey from AI licensing to full consumption, driving measurable outcomes.

• Lead executive alignment sessions with C-suite stakeholders, anchoring conversations in business outcomes and transformation roadmaps.
• Perform maturity assessments and define future-state agentic architectures covering A2A, MCP, and responsible AI principles.
• Translate business goals into prioritized AI use cases and lead PoC builds that prove viability and value.
• Coordinate SAP Business AI Platform activation — AI Core, Joule, Joule Studio, Document AI — and deliver customer enablement.
• Author Adoption Plans, track consumed ACV, and course-correct deviations.
• Establish AI Centre of Excellence structures and governance for agent monitoring and responsible AI.
