What You’ll Be Part Of

As an SAP BTP Integration Engineering Manager, you will be a hands-on technology leader responsible for modernizing and scaling enterprise integrations across SAP and non-SAP systems. You will define the integration strategy while actively designing and delivering solutions using SAP BTP, Integration Suite, and API Management, as well as leading and mentoring a team of developers. You will establish reusable integration patterns and architectures that enable secure, scalable, and standardized connectivity, reduce technical debt, and support event-driven architectures. This role is a strong fit for someone who enjoys combining technical leadership with hands-on engineering, driving standardization, developing talent, and improving operational excellence through effective KPIs, metrics, and dashboards.

How You’ll Make An Impact

  • Lead end-to-end delivery of enterprise integration initiatives from discovery through operations, ensuring successful implementation and support.

  • Design and implement scalable integrations using SAP Integration Suite, API Management, and BTP capabilities.

  • Define and enforce integration strategies by selecting appropriate patterns (API, event-driven, batch, IDoc) based on business needs.

  • Establish and maintain reusable integration assets, templates, and standards to drive efficiency and consistency.

  • Develop and evolve enterprise integration architecture and reference patterns across SAP and non-SAP landscapes.

  • Build, mentor, and manage a high-performing integration development team, fostering strong engineering and Agile practices.

  • Define and govern API standards, lifecycle management, and enable event-driven integration approaches for scalability.

  • Drive operational excellence through defined KPIs, monitoring, alerting, and continuous improvement of integration reliability.

  • Ensure robust security, compliance, and risk management practices across all integration solutions.

  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to align integration strategies with business goals, improve scalability, and reduce technical debt.

What Makes You A Strong Fit

  • Strong hands-on experience with SAP Integration Suite and SAP API Management, including modern integration patterns and governance.

  • Demonstrated experience in designing secure, scalable, and resilient integration architectures in hybrid landscapes (SAP + non-SAP).

  • Solid understanding of integration operations, including monitoring, troubleshooting, error handling, and production support models.

  • Familiarity with Clean Core–aligned integration and extension approaches.

  • Experience in people leadership, managing and mentoring developers (or strong lead experience with clear ownership of team delivery).

  • Strong communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to translate business needs into practical technical solutions and drive alignment across teams.

  • We see AI as an important part of how work gets done. While tools may vary, a baseline familiarity with using AI to support efficiency, problem-solving, and quality is expected.

Bonus Points if You Have

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Systems, or an equivalent field.

  • Experience in enabling event-driven architectures, including pub/sub patterns, event governance, and contract/schema evolution.

  • Experience in integrating SAP solutions (e.g., S/4HANA/ECC and SAP cloud applications) with common enterprise non-SAP platforms.

  • Background in defining integration platform operating models, including governance, standards, reusable components, and intake processes.

  • Experience in establishing reliability practices for integration platforms, such as SLOs/SLIs, error budgets, runbooks, and automated health checks.

  • Experience working in global environments with distributed teams and stakeholders.

  • Relevant SAP certifications (SAP BTP / Integration Suite) or equivalent qualifications.

Things To Know

  • Willingness to travel up to 5%, including both domestic and international travel.

  • Willingness to work from an office or home office with the flexibility to travel to sites as needed.

  • Access to employee discounts on HARMAN and Samsung products (including JBL, Harman / Kardon, AKG, and others).

  • Learning and development opportunities through our award-winning HARMAN University programs.
