  • Own the overarching technical architecture connecting digital storefronts, Commerce Core, Middleware, ERP, and Logistics engines. 
  • Lead Architectural Review, evaluations, define coding standards, enforce integration design patterns, and ensure platform scalability and maintainability. 
  • Collaborate with Product, Operations, and Engineering leadership to align technical capabilities with complex business initiatives. 
  • Design robust, bi-directional integration pipelines between SAP Commerce Cloud and SAP systems 
  • Define enterprise messaging standards using synchronous (REST /GraphQL) and asynchronous mechanisms for high-throughput data exchange. 
  • Architect multi-node order routing, order splitting logic (multi-warehouse / drop-ship), and fulfillment prioritization rules based on real-time cost and proximity.
  • Ensure platform stability during peak global traffic events (handling tens of thousands of orders per minute) through distributed caching, asynchronous queueing, and database sharding. 
  • Design resilient integration boundaries with circuit breakers, idempotent retry policies, and zero data loss event handling during downstream ERP or 3PL outages.

  • Deep expertise in Event-Driven Architecture utilizing Apache Kafka, RabbitMQ, or AWS/GCP messaging services. 
  • Solid grounding in API-first, headless commerce architectures (Spartacus, Angular/TypeScript storefronts, GraphQL, REST). 
  • Strong database modeling skills across relational (SQL, Oracle, SAP HANA) and NoSQL/In-Memory databases (Redis, Memcached). 
  • Experience architecting and integrating LLM/GenAI applications into production workflows (e.g., LangChain, LlamaIndex, OpenAI/Gemini APIs, RAG architectures, Agentic frameworks). 
  • Familiarity with Vector Search/Databases (e.g., Pinecone, pgvector) and hybrid search implementations. 
  • Experience designing inference pipelines with strict latency, rate-limiting, and cost-control constraints. 
  • Demonstrated expertise architecting Unified Commerce Platforms (UCP) connecting unified carts, and managing Checkout process. 

 

Preferred / Nice-to-Have 

  • Certified SAP Commerce Cloud Enterprise Architect or SAP Integration Specialist. 
  • Experience with cloud-native migrations (GCP, AWS, Azure), containerization (Docker, Kubernetes), and modern CI/CD orchestration.
