About the role
Key responsibilities & impact- Design, build, and evolve cloud-based integration capabilities for the TOpS project.
- Take technical ownership of architecture, design, implementation, and production readiness of TOpS applications.
- Lead engineers and delivery partners through development, testing, deployment, and ongoing platform evolution.
- Design and implement API, event-driven, and asynchronous messaging integration solutions.
- Define and govern integration patterns, API contracts, event schemas, message contracts, and publishing patterns.
- Act as the senior hands-on technical authority, making implementation decisions, resolving complex issues, reviewing code, and providing technical leadership and mentoring.
- Define and govern standards for retries, dead-letter handling, replay, idempotency, observability, and operational resilience.
- Provide architectural oversight and review integration designs across internal teams and suppliers.
- Drive technical excellence, performance, scalability, and engineering quality across TOpS applications.
- Own CI/CD and deployment automation for integration services using Git/GitHub, Jenkins, and Infrastructure as Code.
- Support releases, environment configuration, platform upgrades, and troubleshooting of deployment, networking, and security issues.
- Collaborate with Data Architects to ensure enterprise data models are implemented consistently within integration solutions.
Requirements
What you’ll need- Proven experience as a hands-on Technical Architect, Integration Architect, Lead Integration Engineer, or similar technical leadership role, with demonstrable experience architecting, designing, building, and taking enterprise cloud integration solutions into production.
- Strong understanding of enterprise integration patterns across synchronous APIs, asynchronous messaging, and event-driven integration.
- Strong software engineering background with recent hands-on experience developing enterprise integration solutions.
- Experience designing solutions spanning multiple products, including data consistency, cross-product authentication, and real-time event propagation.
- Experience designing and implementing API-based integrations, including API security, policies, versioning, routing, and operational considerations.
- Experience designing event-driven integration solutions, including event schemas, message contracts, Change Data Capture (CDC), Outbox patterns, event publishing, and resilient messaging.
- Practical experience with CDC-based integration, including checkpointing, batching, replay, and recovery.
- Strong understanding of distributed systems and asynchronous messaging patterns, including message ordering, delivery guarantees, eventual consistency, retries, dead-letter queues, replay, checkpointing, idempotency, duplicate processing, failure recovery, observability, and operational resilience.
- Experience designing, performance-testing, and tuning high-volume integration workloads, including throughput, latency, batching, back-pressure, scaling, and recovery from processing backlogs.
- Practical experience with CI/CD, Git/GitHub, and automated deployment pipelines using Jenkins and Infrastructure as Code such as Terraform or equivalent.
- Demonstrable recent hands-on engineering experience working directly with production code and designing, developing, troubleshooting, and optimizing complex enterprise integration solutions.
- Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to lead technical discussions and work across architecture and engineering teams.
- Highly desirable: experience with AI-assisted development tools, Azure and AWS cloud environments, AWS Lambda, DMS, SQS/SNS, EventBridge, Aurora, large-scale cloud transformation programs, and highly regulated enterprise environments.
