tessera-labs - SAP Principal Delivery Architect

• Demonstrated ownership of solutioning through enterprise sales cycles — scope, approach, effort and risk, not product demonstrations — with a record of what you shaped converting and then delivering. • Proven ability to orchestrate delivery teams across functional, technical and data workstreams, on several engagements at the same time, without losing control of any of them. • Senior client-facing presence: able to hold a room of customer architects, business owners and finance stakeholders, and to say no to a customer in a way that keeps the relationship. • A record of driving adoption, not just go-live: evidence that the customer's teams kept using what you delivered. • 12+ years in enterprise transformation with an SAP foundation, spanning several process areas rather than depth in one — enough judgment to design across finance, supply chain and order management, and to know when to bring in a specialist. • Solid technical architecture knowledge: integration patterns, data architecture, and how an SAP landscape actually fits together. You can hold your own in a room full of engineers. • The confidence to tell a program it is over-staffed, and the evidence to back it. • Proven ability to learn a new platform quickly and become the person others ask. You will be expected to reach real fluency in the Tessera platform within your first months. • Excellent verbal and written business English, with strong presentation ability to both business and technical audiences. • Demonstrated experience in a distributed delivery model, with a structured daily overlap window with US-based stakeholders and strong asynchronous communication discipline. • Bachelor's degree in a related field, or equivalent practical experience. • WHO THIS ROLE IS NOT FOR • If your experience is deep configuration inside one or two process areas, this is not the role - we hire specialists for that work and you would be underused here. If your pre-sales experience is running the demo rather than owning the solution, the same applies. And if you prefer one engagement at a time with a clear scope agreed by someone else, you will find this uncomfortable. We are asking for someone who is at ease holding several unfinished things at once. • Experience across more than one enterprise suite — ERP, CRM, HCM or SCM. SAP is the entry point, not the whole picture. • Experience across more than one SAP S/4HANA transition path (Greenfield, Brownfield, Selective Data Transition). • Prior experience partnering with AI, automation or RPA tooling inside an enterprise delivery context. • Pre-sales or solution advisory experience alongside a delivery track record. • SAP Activate methodology experience across multiple full-lifecycle S/4HANA programs. • Portuguese or Spanish. German is a plus. • FIRST-YEAR MEASURES OF SUCCESS • Month 3: Fluent in the Tessera platform. Holding at least two engagements. Trusted by the Technical Program Management and go-to-market leads on those accounts. • Month 6: Value targets agreed and tracked on every engagement you hold. Adoption measured and improving. A steady flow of field input reaching Product. Active in at least one new opportunity. • Month 12: Platform adoption on your accounts is the norm rather than the exception. Your engagement teams are sized on evidence. Your read of where customers are heading has changed at least one thing in how we deliver or what we build. • No third party may recruit, solicit candidates, publish job opportunities, use Tessera Labs' name or branding, or represent that they are acting on behalf of Tessera Labs without prior written authorization.
