• 10+ years of hands-on experience in enterprise application integration, API development, middleware, or iPaaS technologies.
• Demonstrated ability to personally architect, design, build, troubleshoot, deploy, and support complex enterprise integrations across SaaS applications, enterprise platforms, data services, and partner ecosystems.
• Strong hands-on experience with REST APIs, SOAP web services, JSON/XML, SFTP/file-based integrations, webhooks, OAuth 2.0 or similar authentication, mapping/transformation, and error handling/reconciliation.
• Strong experience with an enterprise iPaaS/middleware platform such as Boomi, MuleSoft, Workato, Informatica, Azure Integration Services, Google Cloud integration technologies, or comparable platforms.
• Experience integrating enterprise SaaS/cloud applications; experience with NetSuite, Salesforce, OneStream, Luminance, or comparable ERP/CRM/CPM/CLM platforms is strongly preferred.
• Strong troubleshooting and production-support capabilities, including logs/payload analysis, source control, deployment processes, environment management, integration testing, and release support.
• Experience technically leading onshore/offshore developers and implementation partners, with strong communication, stakeholder-management, organization, and problem-solving skills.

• Experience with financial integrations, enterprise data platforms, and master/reference data, including high-volume or business-critical interfaces.
• Experience modernizing point-to-point integrations into reusable API-based architectures within consumer products, licensing, retail, media, fashion, or similar multi-entity environments.

• Assess the current integration landscape and define pragmatic target-state architecture and modernization priorities aligned with business needs.
• Architect end-to-end solutions by selecting appropriate integration patterns and defining system boundaries, APIs/services, data flows, orchestration, security, error handling, scalability, monitoring, and supportability.
• Personally build and maintain REST/SOAP APIs, web services, SFTP/file and batch integrations, webhooks, and event-driven interfaces using enterprise iPaaS/middleware platforms.
• Create mappings, transformations, workflows, authentication, exception handling, and reusable APIs/services; reduce fragile point-to-point integrations where practical.
• Own integration workstreams for implementations and enhancements, including estimates, technical design, SIT/UAT/regression support, cutover, deployment, and production stabilization.

• Serve as the technical escalation point for complex integration and business-critical production issues; diagnose logs, payloads, API responses, integration jobs, authentication, connectivity, data, and performance problems.
• Drive root-cause resolution and permanent fixes while improving monitoring, alerting, reconciliation, retry, and exception-management capabilities.
• Manage integration platform environments, connectivity, deployments, security, and monitoring; support critical releases and provide on-call support when required.
• Establish practical standards for API design, security, logging, error handling, data transformation, versioning, testing, deployment, and documentation.

• Provide technical leadership to developers and implementation partners while continuing to contribute directly to architecture, development, troubleshooting, and technical reviews.
• Review designs and code/configuration, challenge vendor estimates and solutions, and ensure partners follow established integration standards and quality expectations.
• Manage integration-related vendor performance, SLAs, licenses, upgrades, defects, enhancements, and Statements of Work as needed, while reducing dependency on individual vendors.
• Coordinate release, change-management, SOX/audit documentation, and production-readiness activities with Business Systems, Data & Analytics, Infrastructure, Information Security, Finance, and business stakeholders.

Approximately 60–70% of the role will involve direct technical delivery—including architecture, development/configuration, APIs, troubleshooting, testing, deployment, and production support—with approximately 30–40% focused on technical leadership, prioritization, vendor management, and governance.

• Take hands-on ownership of critical integrations, improving reliability, supportability, monitoring, and production stability.
• Reduce recurring failures, manual intervention, and unnecessary dependency on external partners.
• Establish consistent architecture and development standards and reusable integration components that accelerate future delivery.
• Maintain an integration inventory and a pragmatic roadmap for modernizing high-risk or fragile interfaces.
