What You Will Do- Lead customer innovation engagements: Run discovery workshops and FDE-style boot camps with business and IT stakeholders to surface, qualify, and prioritize high-value Industry AI opportunities.
- Define high-value Industry AI use cases: Translate business challenges into implementable AI solutions - covering data requirements, agent architecture, KPIs, and quantified value metrics.
- Own the end-to-end lifecycle: Drive use cases from discovery to deployment - defining requirements, building prototypes and acceptance criteria, partnering with engineering throughout, and validating business outcomes.
- Deliver value rapidly: Apply a fast, iterative model that puts measurable customer value in production within weeks, not quarters.
- Build the Industry AI portfolio: Turn customer learnings into industry-specific AI assets and accelerators - with documented financial and operational value, reusable across SAP globally.
- Champion thought leadership and C-suite co-innovation: Represent SAP's Industry AI vision in executive forums and industry conferences, and lead strategic co-innovation at the C-suite level to shape customers' multi-year transformation agendas.
- Mentor and elevate colleagues: Actively mentor team - building capability in use case design, value engineering, and customer engagement across the practice.
What You Bring- Deep industry expertise: 8+ years in Manufacturing, Energy & Natural Resources, Consumer Products, or Professional Industries - with a track record of leading enterprise-level transformations, not just advising on them.
- Thought leadership credentials: A recognized voice in your industry domain - through published points of view, conference speaking, or advisory roles that demonstrate influence beyond your organization.
- AI use case expertise: Hands-on experience defining and scaling Agentic AI solutions with a clear focus on data readiness, process fit, and measurable outcomes.

- C-suite engagement skills: Proven ability to build and sustain strategic relationships at the CXO level - driving multi-year co-innovation agendas and navigating organizational complexity.
- Business value mastery: Ability to construct and defend investment-grade business cases for Industry AI - connecting use case outcomes to P&L impact and enterprise strategy.
- SAP platform depth: Expert-level knowledge of SAP S/4HANA, SAP Business AI Platform, SAP Joule, Signavio, LeanIX, Industry Cloud, and SAP's broader AI and data strategy.
- Communication and influence: Exceptional written and verbal English - able to write compelling thought leadership content, present to boards, and represent SAP externally.
Where You BelongYou will join SAP's Customer Industry Solutions (CIS) team as one of its most senior domain voices. This role goes beyond leading engagements - it is about shaping how Industry AI is practised across the team, developing colleagues, and influencing SAP's product and go-to-market direction. The standards you set and the frameworks you establish will have impact well beyond your direct work. Mentoring the next generation of Industry AI experts and driving lasting improvements to how the practice operates is as central to success here as any individual customer outcome.
