Meet the team
SAP’s Global Technology Legal Compliance organization is focused on supporting our development teams to create innovation. Our global group is comprised of skilled software developers, legal and regulatory experts, and technology compliance analysts who work collectively to help product engineering meet the highest level of compliance standards.

We are looking for a manager to lead, mentor, and coach such a talented and diverse group in Vietnam. If you are a passionate individual who wants an opportunity to learn new topics (e.g., open-source governance, international trade compliance, intellectual property management) while honing your own expertise in the latest technologies (we run our own systems on a microservices platform implemented on Kubernetes, and we are also implementing ML/AI to automate our own processes), then this is the right job for you!
 

As a leader, you will help your team constantly improve by defining their development paths, setting realistic goals, and providing constructive feedback and regular performance reviews. You will also support your team in working with stakeholders across SAP to drive the continuous improvement of compliance tools, systems, and processes.

We focus every day on building the foundation for tomorrow and creating a workplace that embraces differences, values flexibility, and is aligned to our purpose-driven and future-focused work. We offer a highly collaborative, caring team environment with a strong focus on learning and development and recognition for individual contributions. Help us shape the future of our team!
