[Hiring] Integration Architect @hiretalent

Role Description

The Integration Architect defines, designs, and governs enterprise integration architecture standards across AWS, Azure, Microsoft Fabric, and on‐prem systems. This consultant creates scalable integration blueprints, reusable patterns, and secure connectivity frameworks that ensure interoperability, reliability, and domain‐aligned data exchange across *** ecosystems. The role partners closely with domain teams, platform engineering, API management teams, and enterprise architecture to accelerate delivery while maintaining architectural integrity.

Key Responsibilities

• Integration Standards & Governance
  • Define and maintain enterprise standards for API design, event schemas, messaging patterns, and integration of contracts.
  • Establish integration governance across AWS, Azure, MS Fabric, and on‐prem systems.
  • Define patterns for ADS (Authorized Data Sources) alignment, data contracts, schema evolution, and anchor key management.
  • Enforce adherence to enterprise security principles including OAuth2/OIDC, JWT, TLS, Zero‐Trust patterns.
• Blueprints & Reference Architecture
  • Build and maintain unified enterprise integration architecture blueprints spanning cloud, Fabric, and on‐prem connectivity.
  • Create domain‐specific and cross‐domain integration flow maps, canonical API patterns, and event‐driven reference architectures.
  • Align AWS, Azure, MS Fabric, and on‐prem patterns under **** Unified Architecture.
• Reusable Patterns & Engineering Enablement
  • Develop reusable integration patterns for:
    • AWS: API Gateway, Event Bridge, SNS/SQS, Lambda, Step Functions, Glue, EMR, Redshift, Lake Formation, Kinesis, AWS Batch, AWS ECR, AWS ECS Fargate.
    • Azure: APIM, Functions, Service Bus, Azure Data Factory (all IR types), Azure Synapse Pipelines, Azure Stream Analytics, Azure Batch, Azure Data Explorer ingestion.
    • MS Fabric: Data Factory pipelines, Lakehouse ingestion interfaces, Fabric Data Pipelines, Notebook-based ETL, Warehouse ingestion.
    • On‐prem: MFT, MQ, legacy services.
  • Provide templates for API contracts, event schemas, integration error‐handling, observability hooks, and resiliency patterns.
• Metadata, ADS, & Anchor Key Integration
  • Define integration patterns incorporating ADS rules, domain ownership, and anchor key management for interoperability.
  • Ensure all integration patterns embed security, observability, lineage awareness, and operational resiliency.
  • Collaborate with data governance to ensure consistent entity resolution and cross‐domain identifier mapping.
• Domain Engagement & Architecture Review
  • Guide domain teams in implementing target‐state integration architectures.
  • Lead or participate in architecture reviews for API designs, event models, platform integrations, and connectivity.
  • Recommend modernization opportunities to retire from legacy integration mechanisms and adopt event‐driven/API‐first models.

Qualifications

• 8–12+ years in integration architecture, API engineering, event‐driven design, or hybrid integration.
• Strong hands‐on expertise across:
  • AWS: API Gateway, Event Bridge, SNS/SQS, Lambda, Step Functions, Glue, EMR, Redshift, Lake Formation, Kinesis, AWS Batch, AWS ECR, AWS ECS Fargate.
  • Azure: APIM, Functions, Service Bus, Azure Data Factory (all IR types), Azure Synapse Pipelines, Azure Stream Analytics, Azure Batch, Azure Data Explorer ingestion.
  • MS Fabric: Data Factory pipelines, Lakehouse ingestion interfaces, Fabric Data Pipelines, Notebook-based ETL, Warehouse ingestion.
  • RDBMS: SQL, Oracle, DB2, RDS, etc.
  • On‐prem: MQ, MFT, REST/SOAP services.
• Understanding of ADS, anchor key management, data/domain contracts, lineage‐aware integration.
• Experience designing event‐driven, API‐first, batch, and hybrid integration architectures.
