At SUSE - SAP Technology Solutions, our mission is to simplify and modernize the operation of SAP systems.

Join the SUSE engineering team in developing the future of SAP workloads on containers, working closely on the development of SAP Gardener, Kubernetes (k8s) and other CNCF technologies, delivering a rich stack tailored for very complex and mission-critical workloads like SAP HANA databases and S4/HANA ERP application servers.

Responsibilities

Together with your team, you will need to delve into the development and maintenance of SAP Gardener and another set of small projects that vary greatly in purpose, complexity and technical details.

You will be required to adapt quickly and bring insightful contributions both to the design and the implementation processes, constantly raising the quality bar while pragmatically adding value.

You will collaborate with your peers inside and outside SUSE via real-time chat, GitHub and/or other various tools, ultimately presenting your technical achievements to the relevant stakeholders in iterative time boxes.

Perks

Working for an established software company comes with some usual benefits: competitive pay, established career paths, and all the hardware and software you’ll need.

In addition to that, you will join a fully geographically distributed team with a remote-first mindset, championing a healthy work/life balance via flexible working hours and vacation policies.

Open-source is at the heart of SUSE: that means you will spend the majority of your work time on your public track record, contributing to the global FOSS community.

Your personal growth will be fostered by conference sponsorships, internal exchange and mentoring programs, hackathons, tech talks and learning courses.
