COMPANY DESCRIPTION
SAP started in 1972 as a team of five colleagues with a desire to do something new. Together, they changed enterprise software and reinvented how business was done. Today, as a market leader in enterprise application software, we remain true to our roots. That’s why we engineer solutions to fuel innovation, foster equality, and spread opportunity for our employees and customers across borders and cultures.
SAP recently decided to combine and harmonize all SAP Sovereign Cloud offerings, establishing an end-to-end process for the Public Sector and regulated industries. The newly created Global Sovereign Cloud Delivery & Operations business unit is part of SAP Customer Services and Delivery with responsibility across the relevant Sovereign Cloud portfolio of SAP.
YOUR FUTURE ROLE
We are looking for a Senior DevOps Engineer (f/m/d) within the Shared Management Services (SMS) group in the Sovereign Cloud Technology & Engineering unit of the newly formed Customer Services & Delivery board area.

In order to do so, you will help to understand and document existing SAP Sovereign Cloud assets and processes.
