Senior Azure Integration Engineer

Senior Azure Integration Engineer

Department: Managed Services

Employment Type: Full Time

Location: UK

Codec is seeking an experienced Senior Azure Integration Engineer to join a dedicated team responsible for the ongoing development, enhancement and evolution of a business-critical Microsoft application platform supporting essential public services.

The successful candidate will play a key role in designing, developing and enhancing integration and data solutions built on Microsoft Azure. Working within a highly collaborative multidisciplinary team, the role will focus on delivering new functionality, modernising integration processes, improving platform reliability and driving continual improvement across a complex enterprise application estate.

The solution integrates Microsoft Dynamics 365 CE, Dataverse, Microsoft Power Platform and Azure Integration Services, providing the opportunity to work across a modern cloud technology stack supporting critical business processes and citizen outcomes.

This is a managed application support and continuous improvement engagement rather than a greenfield build. Because the platform is business-critical and citizen-facing, the role demands the ability to troubleshoot end-to-end across the full integration chain without extensive handoffs from on-premises and SFTP sources, through the Azure integration tier, into Dynamics 365 and out to downstream payment interfaces. The estate spans both classic data-integration technologies (ADF, SSIS, Azure SQL) and application-level components (Azure Web Jobs, .NET

services), so breadth of hands‑on capability across that boundary is essential. In addition to development and enhancement activities, the role will provide technical expertise in the investigation and resolution of complex integration and data‑related issues, acting as a senior escalation point where deep technical knowledge is required.

This is an excellent opportunity for a technically strong Azure professional who enjoys solving challenging integration problems, working with modern cloud technologies and contributing to the long‑term evolution of a strategically important Microsoft platform.

• Contribute to architecture discussions and technical design activities.
• Identify opportunities to improve reliability, scalability, supportability and operational efficiency.
• Participate in technical workshops and collaborate with architects, engineers and customer stakeholders.

Platform Enhancement & Continuous Improvement

• Lead the technical implementation of approved enhancement initiatives and change requests.
• Analyse existing integrations and recommend improvements to performance, maintainability and operational resilience.
• Identify and address technical debt across integration and data services.
