Senior Technical Architect – Hybrid (Product / Platform) (m/f/d)

Cloud Native Node.js & AI-enabled Product with SAP Private Cloud Integration | Senior / Principal Level

As Senior Technical Architect – Hybrid, you own the technical design across our two worlds: the cloud-native, AI-enabled product line built on modern Node.js architectures, and its integration into the SAP Private Cloud platform landscape.

Your focus is approximately 70% Public Cloud product architecture and 30% SAP Private Cloud platform architecture. You are the architect who makes the hybrid seam work – ensuring that public cloud innovation and the SAP core evolve as one coherent, scalable, and future-proof landscape rather than two disconnected estates.
