Job Description

We help the world run better
At SAP, we keep it simple: you bring your best to us, and we'll bring out the best in you. We're builders touching over 20 industries and 80% of global commerce, and we need your unique talents to help shape what's next. The work is challenging - but it matters. You'll find a place where you can be yourself, prioritize your wellbeing, and truly belong. What's in it for you? Constant learning, skill growth, great benefits, and a team that wants you to grow and succeed.
Senior Software Developer (Commerce, Java/Cloud)
About the role
You'll be a senior individual contributor on our SaaS commerce platform, delivering features end-to-end across the stack. You'll design, build, test, deploy, and operate high-quality microservices and front-end components with a strong emphasis on performance, security, and maintainability.
What you'll do

• Build and evolve backend services in Java (11+) with Spring Boot/Spring Cloud/Spring Security, exposing well-documented REST APIs (OpenAPI/Swagger).
• Develop UI components in Angular or React (TypeScript preferred) and contribute to PWA experiences where appropriate.
• Design cloud-native, API-first microservices that support headless commerce scenarios.
• Work with relational databases and ORM; optimize queries and data access patterns.
• Ship to AWS/Azure/GCP using Docker and Kubernetes; maintain reliable CI/CD (e.g., Jenkins, GitHub Actions).
• Write robust automated tests (e.g., JUnit, Mockito, WireMock; exposure to Cypress/Karate/Selenium is a plus).
• Address non-functional requirements (performance, security, migration/compatibility) and apply observability best practices.
• Participate in operational readiness: deployment, monitoring/telemetry, and incident handling, in partnership with SRE (shared rotation, not a full-time ops role).
• Collaborate with product, QA, DevOps, and technical writers; contribute concise developer/customer-facing documentation.
• Mentor teammates through code reviews and knowledge sharing within the squad.

What you bring

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a closely related field (required). An advanced degree is an asset.
• 7+ years of professional software development experience or a demonstrated senior-level track record building production systems.
• Deep expertise in Java/Spring microservices, REST API design, and secure, scalable architectures.
• Hands-on experience with containers, Kubernetes, and at least one major cloud provider (AWS/Azure/GCP).
• Proficiency with CI/CD and Git workflows.
• Solid understanding of automated testing (Pact contract testing preferred) and observability in distributed systems.
• Clear, collaborative communication; effective in agile product teams.

Nice to have

• Experience with SAP CX Commerce or similar headless/omnichannel commerce platforms (e.g., commercetools, Adobe Commerce, Shopify Plus).
• Familiarity with B2B/B2C commerce concepts (payments, order management, sourcing).
• Examples of prior work you can discuss (public repos or internal projects, respecting confidentiality).

How we work
You'll join a collaborative, product-focused team in Montreal that values clean code, clear communication, and iterative delivery. We run agile sprints and ship frequently, using automation and DevOps practices to keep quality high. This role adheres to our return-to-office policy, requiring on-site presence at our Montreal office at least three days per week.
Leveling & scope (for all candidates)
This role maps to our Senior Engineer career level as an individual contributor. Scope is squad-level: you influence design and quality for the features you build, mentor peers, and help raise engineering standards
Success in your first 6 months

• Deliver two meaningful, production features with measurable quality and performance improvements.
• Raise the bar on testing/observability for your services.
• Share knowledge through reviews and short design notes that improve team velocity.
