Integration Architect responsible for mapping the integration landscape and designing integration patterns for clients in engineering and project delivery. Collaborating across teams to ensure successful integration projects while working in a hybrid model.
Responsibilities
Work with Enterprise, Solution, Data and Security Architects to define the client’s integration architecture baseline (interfaces, middleware, APIs, file transfers, event flows).
Identify and document as-is integrations between core systems (e.g. ERP, project systems, engineering tools, document management, BI).
Design target integration patterns (API-first, event-driven, ESB, point-to-point where appropriate) and document when each pattern should be used.
Support 1-2 pilot projects going through the new EA workflow with clear integration designs in their HLA/HLD.
Collaborate with Data Architects on data flows and lineage, ensuring integrations do not break data consistency.
Work with Security Architects to ensure authentication, authorisation, and encryption are correctly handled in integration designs.
Provide input into non-functional requirements (resilience, throughput, monitoring, support model) for key integrations.
Contribute integration views and documentation into the EA repository (SharePoint / diagrams / standards library).
Advise on priorities for integration improvement (e.g. removal of brittle point-to-point links, consolidation of interfaces, monitoring gaps).
Requirements
7+ years’ experience in Integration Architecture, Middleware, or related roles.
Strong experience designing and governing system integrations in complex environments (multiple line-of-business systems, legacy + cloud mix).
Hands-on knowledge of common integration patterns (ESB, API gateway, messaging, event streaming, batch/file, ETL).
Practical experience with at least one major integration platform or stack (e.g. Azure Integration Services, Azure API Management, MuleSoft, Boomi, Tibco, IBM, webMethods, or similar).
Ability to produce clear integration design documents (interface specs, sequence diagrams, error handling flows).
Understanding of security and data considerations in integration (authentication, authorisation, encryption, PII, logging).
Comfortable working with technical and non-technical stakeholders and explaining integration options in simple terms.
Excellent communication skills in English and comfortable working in a hybrid model (remote plus occasional on-site visits to Casablanca and/or London).
Benefits
Key role in defining the integration landscape and patterns for a new Enterprise Architecture capability at a major engineering and project-delivery group.
Work in a small, senior team that values clear, pragmatic designs over heavy bureaucracy.
Hybrid working model – remote by default, with focused on-site trips to run integration workshops and support pilot projects.
Exposure to Intelance’s broader EA, Cybersecurity, and AI work and the opportunity to influence integration practices across clients.
Competitive compensation with options for freelance / Ltd company engagement or longer-term collaboration.
Direct access to Intelance leadership and the chance to help shape our integration architecture methods and accelerators.
