Job Description

At SUSE - SAP Solutions, our mission is to simplify and modernize the operations of SAP software.

Join one of our engineering teams in developing the latest addition to an extensive stack of tools specifically tailored for very complex and mission-critical workloads like SAP HANA databases and the S4/HANA enterprise applications.

Our typical users are SAP system administrators who leverage our “SUSE Linux Enterprise Server for SAP Application” operative system to run their most critical workloads. These are huge operations, like global manufacturers, retailers and logistics: few minutes of downtime may cause huge losses in revenue; we want to enable them in preventing this from happening.

The ideal candidate is a passionate, driven and smart software engineer who takes pride in delivering excellent software, with a wide breadth of skills and some degree of depth in any specialty of choice.

We are looking for a fast learner, able to embrace any common technology stack as the given tool of choice, knowledgeable on the latest tech trends and best practices, and striving to find the right balance between pragmatism and attention to details.

We will expect you to be:

• very proficient with at least a couple of different common programming languages

• knowledgeable on generic fundamentals about software engineering and distributed systems

• familiar with open-source software development practices

• familiar with cloud-native technologies, e.g. Linux containers

• confident with Git, the UNIX-style Command Line Interface, and other tools for the job

• fluent with English, both spoken and written

• a well navigated remote worker

We would also greatly appreciate:

• an established track record of open-source software upstream contributions

• familiarity with any of the following topics:

  • the Go programming language;

  • the Elixir programming language and the Erlang/OTP platform;

  • Domain Driven Design and related software design patterns like CQRS/ES.

We do not put any particular emphasis on formal education or actual years of experience: what matters most is what you can do, and how you do it.

You will be contributing, along with your peers, to the development of one project aimed at operating large-scale cloud, hybrid and bare-metal systems with a very specific purpose: running SAP software.

You will be onboarded to contribute to a well established and extensive codebase, participate in daily video-conference team meetings, collaborate with your peers via real-time chat, GitHub and/or other various tools, ultimately presenting your technical achievements to the relevant stakeholders in iterative time boxes.
