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.
About the Role
Change has always been part of business, but today's environment forces us to deal with change - both good and bad - faster than ever before. New technologies are changing how we live and work, and COVID, climate change, and geopolitical tensions expose how fragile our world is. Only companies that can adapt quickly will thrive. You need to work more agile, more intelligently, and more efficiently to point out new ways. And doing so takes more than just a technical migration to the cloud.
A holistic business transformation is about changing the whole culture and mindset of an enterprise. It's about redesigning your business processes. It's about adopting new technologies - to unlock new ways of running your business and stay ahead of your industry. To truly transform your business at your speed and terms, you need more than Infrastructure-as-a-Service or Software-as-a-Service. You need a holistic offering. What you need is Business Transformation-as-a-Service.
RISE with SAP brings together everything you need to transform your business in the way that works best for you - regardless of your point of departure or how fast you want to move. And because we know that transformation is a journey, not a destination, RISE with SAP allows you to change not only once, but to continually transform - and we are with you every step of the way.
One of the key deployment options for our customers is a Private Cloud environment. SAP provides comprehensive cloud infrastructure and managed service offerings for the private cloud and therefore acts as an essential part of the overall Cloud Strategy of SAP.
SAP allows customers to run their SAP S/4 HANA, and HANA applications, including SAP Business Suite powered by SAP HANA and SAP NetWeaver Business Warehouse powered by SAP HANA, in a managed private cloud environment either in SAP's datacenters, Hyperscale Clouds IaaS Environments and in customers' existing datacenters. SAP has established strategic partnerships with the major public cloud providers, including Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform (Google Cloud Platform), to offer customers choices for their SAP private cloud deployment.
As part of SAP's Customer Success organization, we are looking for highly motivated and customer-focused team members to strengthen the Cloud Architecture & Advisory team (CAA). The Cloud Architect Expert acts as a primary point of contact for all technical topics from a customer perspective and works closely with all the other internal teams.
What You'll Do
This is a customer-facing role focused on Strategic Customers where you will support broader virtual account teams during the entire sales cycle of a Cloud deal. The following are the key tasks that this role will perform:
