AI Solutions Engineer

About Spotlight Partners

Spotlight Partners is a privately held SAP consulting firm that lives at the intersection of SAP Cloud ERP and AI transformation — helping clients accelerate toward streamlined operations and untapped potential.

We specialize in two things: creating investment-grade business cases that articulate exactly the expected return on an SAP engagement, and taking a proprietary approach to developing supplemental AI within and outside the SAP ecosystem. That approach is Beacon, our AI platform — and we're hiring the leader who will decide what it becomes.

Spotlight Partners is a uniquely experienced and curated group of talent built to deliver balance across business operations and technology, without the red tape and bureaucracy of other consulting firms.

None of this works without the right people, and we've been deliberate about who's in the room. Spotlight Partners asks a lot — sound judgment, real ownership, and a genuine commitment to clients over convenience. What you get in return is a team that makes you sharper: people who know the work, say what they think, and hold the line on quality even when it's inconvenient. It's demanding. It's also where people do the best work of their careers.

The Role

You'll turn ideas into working, demoable AI solutions on a short cycle — typically 2–3 weeks from concept to something a client can see and react to. When a prototype proves out, you'll hand it off with a clear written spec so it can be built into production software.

What You'll Do

• Build rapid prototypes on 2–3 week cycles

• Develop AI workflows, prompt and orchestration logic, and lightweight interfaces

• Integrate SAP-relevant data with external AI services

• Translate ambiguous business problems into working technical solutions

• Support demos and client conversations

• Hand off proven prototypes to our AI Developer team with a written spec

What You'll Bring

• Hands-on experience with Python, TypeScript, and SQL

• Comfort working with REST and OData APIs

• Experience building fast, lightweight interfaces (Streamlit, Next.js, or similar)

• Working knowledge of Git and basic Docker

• Experience with LLM SDKs and agent/tool-use frameworks (e.g., MCP)

• Practical experience with prompt and context engineering, agent orchestration, and

retrieval-augmented generation

• A bias toward speed, balanced with the discipline to document what you build so someone else can

pick it up

Nice to Have

• Working knowledge of SAP data objects

• AWS or Azure AI practitioner credentials, or SAP BTP fundamentals

What We Offer

• A high-velocity build environment — your prototypes go in front of real clients, fast

• Direct exposure to client conversations, not just backlog tickets

• Hybrid flexibility (Troy/Birmingham, MI area)

• Competitive compensation, commensurate with experience
