What you`ll do:At SAP Business AI, we are exploring the next frontier of AI on structured business data such as graphs, tables and more. Foundation Models on structured data, like SAP-RPT-1.5, have ushered in the GenAI era for business-relevant scenarios. Now, we are pushing further. We want to enable companies across industries to collaboratively train foundation models that extend beyond just tabular structured data to additional modalities and to build knowledge graphs.
As Tech Lead & Staff Scientist (f/m/d), you will play a leading role in defining, prototyping and iterating a composable, multi-modal architecture for foundation models, focusing on structured business data and collaborating closely with a Tech Lead for semi-structured data modalities. You will translate advances in structured-data modeling, tabular AI, Graph ML, and foundation models into new research directions, model architectures, and evaluation approaches. Working across multiple R&D teams, you will define the technical direction and guide its execution while making targeted hands-on contributions to critical prototypes and experiments.
This is the ideal role for a highly focused, ambitious individual with both, strong scientific and coordinating capabilities to grow in a dynamic, fast-paced environment, and your chance to become a key contributor to one of the very few leading foundation models of European origin.
