About THE Team

SAP Concur is the market leader in integrated travel, expense, and invoice management, serving millions of users worldwide.

The Concur Spend Admin engineering team owns the full administration lifecycle of the Concur Spend platform — admin UI, onboarding, entity lifecycle management, and partner and implementation team support. We build the tools that administrators use to configure, monitor, and optimize their expense programs and that SAP uses to provision and manage the lifecycle of tenants. Our stack includes React and TypeScript frontends; Java/Spring Boot and Node.js services; Python services for AI use cases; and AWS and Kubernetes infrastructure. We ship to production frequently, operate what we build, and use AI coding tools (including Claude Code) daily across the team.
