About the Role
As an Integration Engineer, you will play a vital role in designing, implementing, and maintaining integration solutions that connect various applications, systems, and services within the organization. In a banking or enterprise environment, this role is critical to ensuring seamless communication and data flow between disparate systems, enabling business processes to run efficiently and reliably.
Key Accountabilities
- Designing Integration Architecture: Analyze business requirements to create integration solutions using the ESB that are scalable, reliable, and re-usable.
- Development of Integration Solutions: Build and configure APIs and messaging components to facilitate communication between systems that are secure, compliant, and optimized for performance.

- Security and Compliance: Ensure data flowing through the ESB adheres to organizational and regulatory security standards (e.g., encryption, authentication, and authorization). Also implement compliance requirements such as GDPR, PCI DSS, or AML for data handling and communication protocols.
- Continuous Improvement and Optimization: Optimize integration processes for performance and scalability. Enhance existing integration components to improve maintainability and reduce costs.
- Collaboration: Work closely with developers, architects, and business analysts to understand requirements and deliver integration solutions. Collaborate with DevOps and IT operations teams to deploy and maintain ESB solutions. Liaise with vendors and third-party service providers to integrate external systems or troubleshoot integration issues.

- 5+ years’ experience in a busy software development environment.
- Experience with building and consuming APIs (e.g., REST, SOAP, GraphQL).
- Experience securing APIs (e.g., OAuth 2.0, JWT, TLS/SSL).
