Innovators in demand!

SAP Labs Latin America has consistently been expanding for the past 15 years. We are now kicking off our third growth cycle by inaugurating a new building to host 800+ colleagues. There will be more than two thousand of us with the common purpose of making a difference in the world and impacting companies through technology and digital transformation.?

We started SAP Labs Latin America in 2006 with a small team to support customers all over Brazil. Since then, we have been evolving as an innovation and solution development hub, and we are now a worldwide reference. We are taking part in global projects creating innovation from S?o Leopoldo in Southern Brazil. Our expertise and high performance are recognized by SAP, which keeps on investing in the Lab in Latin America.

This shows that Latin America really can be a technology hub. Careers in IT have been on the rise for the last 20 years. Our growth at Labs Latin America is anchored on our team of talents engaged and motivated to acquire knowledge and solve real challenges our clients and the world is facing like being a truly intelligent enterprise, sustainability etc. ?

We have more than 250 job openings in our location, which is a significant number that only tends to rise. There is a shortage of IT professionals on the market to work as developers and build a career in the sector. In my case, I started working in India 25 years ago for an SAP partner while still studying at the University. Along my course, I was hired right away and have taken part in different projects across the globe. I am driven by challenges and always have the mindset to learn continuously. After a long journey, I got the opportunity to be where I am now as the President of SAP Labs Latin America. I am very proud of the history that we are building together for my company and for the world.?

The road ahead that we offer here is full of challenges, but believe me - it is a rewarding one. Why is SAP very attractive for those who desire to grow in today’s IT market? We have many. We are diverse, connected, from different cultural and geographical backgrounds, everyone interacts with the best professionals in the world to create cutting-edge software. A very inclusive environment where every individual and ideas are valued. But the most rewarding part is that we are more than developers or engineers - We have an opportunity to understand our customer’s problems, co-innovate, and develop something new that will make the world run better and improve people's lives.?

At the end of the day, this satisfaction of working in an inclusive environment that provides all tools for innovation and a possibility to constantly learn brings happiness. We have been recognized year-over-year as an employer of choice. In 2021, we got 3rd place in Great Place to Work Brazil, the only IT company in the top 5 among all companies with more than one thousand employees. ?

It is essential to be happy, have a purpose, and feel fulfilled at work. SAP Labs Latin America offers the whole package!

For those who at some point had a negative result from any job application: just keep trying. Most importantly, keep evolving in order to get more and more prepared for the RIGHT position. I say that from experience - after 6 full processes with a "Not Selected" at the end (yeah, it took 5 years) I finally got hired in the 7th process. The job opportunity/offer couldn't be better and more suitable not just to my background at that time but also pretty aligned to my career expectation. My point is: it needs to be a great fit and the recruitment team usually catches that. In the end after all your efforts you'll make it tho. Trust yourself! Oh, btw, loving the #lifeatSAP
