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. 

 

What you'll build

 

At SAP, we amplify the strength of AI technology, fusing it with our robust industry-focused data and profound process knowledge. Our vision is to infuse every SAP application with sophisticated AI capabilities, revolutionizing the way businesses operate. Large Language Models (LLMs) are transforming Machine Learning but pose challenges in business applications due to their limited understanding of structured and unstructured business data such as data models, business process metadata, technical interfaces and documentation, which slows the development progress. It is SAP's mission to overcome these challenges within the realm of Business AI. Our goal is to provide Knowledge Graphs (KG) as key differentiators to address LLM challenges like hallucination and compliance and to deliver distinctive generative AI solutions to our customers.

 

As a Data Engineer Working Student (f/m/d), you will contribute to data engineering activities for the Business Knowledge Graphs team at SAP.

 

• Build ETL pipeline scripts that ingest data, metadata, and other development artifacts into our Knowledge Graph using various APIs: SQL, REST, OData, web scraping
• Create and maintain explicit data models and transformation logic for highly heterogeneous data: JSON, YAML, XML, OData EDMX, OpenAPI, AsyncAPI, CDS, CSN, ORD, BPMN
• Perform data analysis and write automated tests to ensure data quality and ETL operations continuity
• Maintain, extend and operate supplementary cloud applications, e.g. a reverse proxy or simple REST API wrappers

 

What you bring 

 

• Enrolled student (f/m/d) in Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, Physics, Mathematics, or other relevant disciplines at a higher education institution in Germany
• Proficiency in Python - algorithms and data structures, OOP, generators and I/O, logging/debugging, basic test automation skills

• Basic development or operations experience on any of the cloud providers: SAP Business Technology Platform, AWS, GCP, Azure
• Hands-on experience with any major ETL framework like Databricks, Metaflow or Airflow is a plus
• Familiarity with data analysis (pandas, Jupyter Notebooks, Great Expectations), data modelling frameworks or languages (Pydantic, JSONSchema, XMLSchema) is an advantage
• Experience with Knowledge Graphs and Semantic Technologies (JSON-LD, RDF, SPARQL, SHACL) is a plus
• Curiosity and interest to explore and adopt new technologies and frameworks mentioned above
• Coming to the office in Walldorf or Berlin is not mandatory, but recommended
