ABOUT THE ROLE As Parloa continues to grow rapidly within the SAP ecosystem, we're hiring an SAP Integration Architect to join our SAP Center of Excellence (CoE).

AREAS OF OWNERSHIP This role is a blend of architecture and hands-on delivery and centers on SAP integration and orchestration as the core area of ownership and conversational AI as a secondary skillset. * Own SAP integration and orchestration architectures: design and architect SAP integration and orchestration solutions spanning Parloa's AI platform, cloud and on-premise SAP estates, and non-SAP applications around digital SAP core. * Deliver across the full project lifecycle: drive discovery, build, test, and go-live, by implementing integrations and automation workflows in cloud-native and hybrid environments over SAP state-of-the-art platforms such as SAP BTP (Integration Suite incl.

WHO YOU ARE * 5+ years of hands-on experience in SAP integration development and architecture incl. technical consulting, and delivering scalable integrations in live enterprise environments. * Strong hands-on experience with SAP BTP Integration Suite: analyzing and applying standard integration packages as well as designing, building, and operating end-to-end custom solutions interacting across all SAP IS services, such as SAP CI, Event Mesh, API Management, Open Connectors etc. * First experience in the field with SAP’s AI stack (e.g., SAP AI Core, SAP AI Launchpad, SAP Joule) and interoperability standards like MCP * Foundational SAP ABAP knowledge and solid Groovy scripting skills * Consulting or advisory affinity: experience guiding enterprise customers, partners, or systems integrators through solution discovery, architecture discussions, or implementation trade-offs * Project and stakeholder management skills, with passion for meeting milestones and effective communication * Entrepreneurial mindset with initiative, results orientation, and the ability to identify opportunities for impact * Ability to travel and to be on demand on-site with customers and partners for key moments like discovery workshops, architecture reviews, and go-lives NICE TO HAVE * Exposure to Large Language Models (LLMs) and conversational design to craft effective prompts that align with desired outcomes * Exposure to customer contact center technologies, telephony and enterprise CX platforms * Familiarity with SAP architecture frameworks (Clean Core, ISA-M, Extensibility Framework) * Familiarity with the SAP CX and CRM solutions, such as SAP Service Cloud, SAP Sales Cloud etc. * Familiarity developing extensions on SAP BTP using CAP is an important, though not core, differentiator * Experience integrating non-SAP ERPs (MS Dynamics 365, Oracle NetSuite) and CRM/HCM systems (Salesforce, Workday, ServiceNow). * Foundational knowledge of a cloud platform (AWS, Azure, or GCP) and Kubernetes; programming in Python, SQL, or TypeScript/Node.js. * Foundational knowledge of SAP data and analytics (SAP BW/4HANA, SAP Datasphere, SAP Analytics Cloud). * Experience working with or for SAP system integrators or within the broader SAP partner ecosystem * Experience operating in fast-paced startup or high-growth enterprise software environments. WHY PARLOA? We’re at the beginning of a new era in customer experience, one where AI doesn’t just respond, but understands, reasons, and takes action.

We’re here to raise the standard: making every conversation seamless, intelligent, and genuinely helpful. If you care about shaping how businesses and customers connect at scale—and want your work to matter in real, everyday moments—this is where you do it. At Parloa, ownership isn’t a buzzword; it means being accountable for outcomes, not just tasks. We operate in a category that’s evolving fast, where the bar is high, and the problems are complex.
