PURPOSE AND OBJECTIVES

 

Join an innovative, collaborative development environment and help build secure data access and connectivity capabilities as part of SAP’s Big Data Fabric Services (BDFS).

We are looking for a Senior Platform Engineer who can contribute across design, implementation, operability, and technical problem-solving in the SAP Data Accelerator and broader BDFS context.

This work sits within the broader BDFS portfolio, which enables SAP Lines of Business and customers to enter the world of big data more easily. BDFS delivers platform capabilities such as Apache Spark as a service, multi-language data processing on Kubernetes-based infrastructure, and access to hyperscaler-agnostic data sources using the Delta Sharing protocol on top of the HANA Data Lake File Service (HDLFS).
