Description provided by SAP
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.
What You'll Build
In this role, you'll reimagine how people find information. You're not just enhancing the search - you're architecting the foundation for AI to understand context, intent, and nuance in ways traditional systems cannot.
What You'll Actually Do
You'll work on the search infrastructure that lets AI reason about massive datasets in real-time. This means designing systems that don't just retrieve documents, but understand relationships between them, anticipate what users truly need. You'll optimize for speed and accuracy simultaneously - where seconds matter and wrong answers have real consequences.
Why It Matters
By embedding AI into search, you're eliminating friction between curiosity and understanding. You're reducing the cognitive load of finding truth in noise. Professionals spend less time hunting and more time thinking. Complex problems get solved faster because the right context is instantly available.
What You Bring
Team Solaris is part of SAP LeanIX - the leading Enterprise Architecture Management platform. We build software that helps large organizations understand, manage, and evolve their technology landscape.
Our team is a diverse, multicultural group of engineers with a strong ownership culture. We are currently rebuilding our Search and adding AI-native capabilities - a greenfield opportunity to set the bar for how LeanIX approaches AI-powered product development.
Our tech stack: Kotlin
This is a SAP global, strategic, paid working student position that provides students with opportunities to find purpose in their careers.

Working student essentials
What this Tech working student role in Dresden means for you — the weekly-hours rules, social-contribution perks, and what international students should check before applying.
Weekly hours
Working students may work up to 20 hours a week during the semester and full-time during the breaks. Staying within this keeps your student status and the Werkstudent benefits.
Working student rulesSocial contributions
Under the Werkstudentenprivileg you're exempt from health, care and unemployment insurance contributions — only pension insurance applies. That leaves more net pay than a regular job.
Check your insuranceInternational students
Non-EU students can work 140 full or 280 half days per year (raised from 120/240 in March 2024). A working student contract usually fits within this — confirm the exact limits printed on your residence permit.
