New grad SWE stuck on SAP

I’m about 2 months into my first full-time SWE role at a large enterprise company, on a team doing SAP BRIM with barely any knowledge of it. I came in expecting more general software engineering work, not SAP-specific development.

I have prior internship experience within fullstack with Typescript/Python and CI/CD exposure, but this current role isn’t giving me any modern tooling exposure at all, and I don’t want to stay in the SAP ecosystem long-term.

My questions are:

- how much does SAP ABAP developer as a title hurt outside of the SAP world?
- for anyone who’s been in SAP and pivoted out, how long does that take and what’s a general roadmap to do so?
