Mentor and guide global SAP development teams on architecture best practices (ABAP, CAP/RAP, Fiori). Establish platform governance, DevSecOps pipelines, and CI/CD standards to accelerate delivery and ensure compliance. Introduce AI-driven automation and intelligent workflows leveraging SAP Joule, Agentic AI, and Business Data Cloud. Collaborate with product and engineering leaders to align enterprise architecture with Archer’s operational and manufacturing priorities. Qualifications 15+ years of experience in SAP technology and enterprise architecture roles. Deep knowledge of SAP S/4HANA, SAP BTP, RISE/GROW, and cloud-native architectures (AWS or Azure).
