Job Description

Owns the end-to-end integration architecture for the program. Acts as the single point of accountability for how enterprise integrations fit together. Translates business and functional requirements into architecture patterns, integration standards, and a design blueprint that the rest of the team builds against.



Works closely with the Integration Lead, client architects, and platform SMEs (Red Hat and Microsoft/Azure sides) to ensure the solution is scalable, secure, and supportable.

Responsibilities:

- Define the target-state integration architecture, including sync/async patterns, event-driven design, and API-led connectivity across HIP and Azure
- Author and maintain architecture decision records (ADRs), integration design standards, naming conventions, and reusable pattern catalogs (e.g., request-reply, pub-sub, claim-check, content-based routing, saga/compensation)
- Define the Kafka topic strategy (topic design, partitioning, schema governance) and its interplay with Azure Service Bus/Logic Apps
- Define the API strategy through 3Scale (API tiers, versioning, security policies, throttling/rate limiting)
- Lead architecture governance — design reviews, non-functional requirement (NFR) sign-off (latency, throughput, resilience, DR)
- Own the security and compliance posture for integration flows (OAuth2/OIDC, mTLS, data-in-transit/at-rest, PII handling between on-prem HIP and Azure)
- Guide the Integration Development Lead and Designer on solution-level design decisions and resolve cross-team design conflicts
- Interface with client enterprise architecture, Red Hat
