Develop and configure API requests, endpoints, and integration workflows to support reliable data exchange between systems.
Implement data mapping, transformation, validation, and serialization processes to ensure compatibility between integrated platforms.
Work with JSON, XML, and other structured data formats to support data exchange and interoperability.
Integrate with internal and third-party APIs while adhering to established technical standards and interface specifications.
Support API versioning, backward compatibility, and integration changes as systems and requirements evolve.
Collaborate with development teams to resolve interface dependencies and ensure successful integration across application environments.
Develop and execute integration tests to validate API functionality, data accuracy, response handling, and system interoperability.
Use API testing tools such as Postman or comparable tools to validate requests, responses, status codes, and error handling.
Troubleshoot API connectivity issues, authentication failures, data discrepancies, performance issues, and integration errors.
Implement appropriate logging, monitoring, retry mechanisms, and exception handling to improve integration reliability.
Document defects, investigate root causes, and coordinate with technical teams to implement corrective actions.

Implement API authentication and authorization mechanisms, such as OAuth 2.0, API keys, and token-based authentication, as appropriate to the integration.
Follow established security practices for data transmission, credential management, access controls, and sensitive information handling.
Apply appropriate input validation, error handling, and secure coding practices to protect integrated systems.
Monitor integration performance and identify opportunities to improve response times, reliability, and scalability.
Support compliance with organizational, customer, and applicable regulatory requirements for data privacy and security.
Develop and maintain technical documentation, including API specifications, integration workflows, data mappings, configuration details, and troubleshooting procedures.
Collaborate with software developers, data engineers, QA personnel, architects, and business stakeholders to define integration requirements.
Participate in technical design discussions, code reviews, integration planning, and deployment activities.
Support the maintenance and enhancement of existing integrations as business and technical requirements change.
Identify opportunities to automate integration processes and improve development, testing, and deployment practices.
