DevOps Engineer & Scrum Master (T2/T3) (m/f/d) for Autonomous Operations

Apply Now DevOps Engineer & Scrum Master (T2/T3) (m/f/d) for Autonomous Operations Date: 11/12/2026 Company: SAP 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 Do Join the Autonomous Operations team, within SCI Cross Product Engineering, building the platform that turns operational expertise into reusable, auditable automation for infrastructure operations. The platform follows a React-Record-Reason architecture: the Autonomous Operations Satellite (AOS) handles fast, deterministic execution; the Operational Context Graph (OCG) provides the central knowledge store and semantic network; and the Insight and Automation Platform (IAP) delivers AI/ML-assisted reasoning, recommendations, and continuous learning.  You will also contribute to the Apeiro Reference Architecture (ApeiroRA) within the EU's IPCEI-CIS initiative and the Linux Foundation's NeoNephos ecosystem. This role combines Scrum Master and DevOps responsibilities. The current baseline split is up to 60% Scrum Master / up to 40% DevOps, but the balance may shift over time based on team needs, project phases, and organizational priorities. We are looking for someone who is open to this flexibility and comfortable operating across both dimensions. ·        Scrum Master (up to 60%): Own agile processes across AOS, OCG, and IAP: facilitate ceremonies, remove impediments, partner with Product Management on backlog health, track delivery metrics, and coordinate cross-team dependencies including ApeiroRA/IPCEI-CIS deliverables. Coach the team on agile principles and drive continuous improvement. ·        DevOps Engineer (up to 40%): Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure-as-code, and observability for Kubernetes-based microservices, including air-gapped and sovereign cloud targets. Automate testing, security scanning, and EU AI Act compliance checks. Hands-on work in Go and/or Python. What You Bring •        Several years as a Scrum Master or Agile Coach with complex, distributed engineering teams. CSM/PSM or equivalent preferred. •        Strong problem-solving and conflict resolution skills with a positive attitude and growth mindset. •        Production-grade Go and/or Python. •        Strong Kubernetes, container orchestration, Helm chart packaging/templating and observability skills (Prometheus, Grafana, ELK/Loki). •        Hands-on CI/CD experience (Jenkins, GitLab CI, GitHub Actions, or Tekton) and infrastructure-as-code (Terraform, Ansible). •        Familiarity with zero-trust architectures and air-gapped environments. •        Experience using AI tools for coding, automation, and troubleshooting with the judgment to review AI outputs before production use. •        Clear communicator across engineering, architecture, and leadership audiences. •        Openness to a flexible role split and comfortable adapting the balance between Scrum Master and DevOps responsibilities as the team evolves. We don’t expect you to have experience with every technology listed. If you have a strong foundation in several of these areas and are interested in learning the others, we’d be happy to hear from you. Meet the Team You will join SAP Cloud Infrastructure, where we build the infrastructure powering SAP's Autonomous Enterprise, sovereign, and regulated cloud environments, leveraging technologies including OpenStack, Kubernetes/Gardener, Ceph, Prometheus, and more. Our engineering culture is hands-on and collaborative. We work on real infrastructure problems, share what we learn, and believe
