Join our team and what we'll accomplish together
Be part of a transformational journey with innovative talent and leading edge technologies
The SAP Technology Strategy team is passionate about providing our team members and customers with positive experiences. Our team is on a continuous journey towards helping TELUS become a world-class leader in API solutions, doing so by delivering capabilities built upon unified scalable platforms, advanced cloud tooling, and a customer first culture while always keeping an eye on the horizon, preparing for the next big thing.
Our daily actions are guided by three tenets that are critical for our success:
ArchDevOps: We are closing the gap between strategy and execution via embedded agile architectural practices into the DevOps lifecycle, easy flow, and real-time in-the-moment review
Product-centric mindset: We focus on what our customers need with clearly defined outcome-based deliverables, and we deliver using a build-measure-learn loop model
Agile mindset: We apply agile architecture principles in everything we do
