Job Description & How to Apply Below
The Technology Architect – Integration is a hands‑on architecture role within Digital & Technology (D&T), accountable for designing and governing Haleon’s integration architecture foundation —the connective tissue that enables systems and data to flow reliably end‑to‑end across the enterprise.
Reporting into Technology Domain Architect, the role translates enterprise technology direction and standards into implementable integration patterns, reference architectures and delivery guidance .
The role’s central mission is to create a modern, simplified integration foundation that reduces point‑to‑point complexity and enables fast, safe change at scale.
The role also ensures integration is future‑proofed for data to flow seamlessly across the organisation , for system to connect and for AI : AI value depends on reliable, governed, timely data and interoperable systems. This role helps ensure integration choices enable AI and analytics solutions to scale without fragmentation, rework or hidden operational risk.
Role purpose
To design and govern a modern, simplified, secure and resilient integration foundation that enables scalable enterprise connectivity and future‑proofs Haleon’s data and systems for AI‑enabled solutions .
Key accountabilities
The Technology Architect – Integration is accountable for:
Establishing and evolving Haleon’s enterprise integration foundation , reducing fragmentation and point‑to‑point complexity through standard patterns and common platform approaches.
Defining and enforcing modern integration principles and patterns (e.g. API‑first, composability, reusability, resilience and governance by design ).
Ensuring integration designs are secure by design and resilient by default , including operability, observability and recoverability.
Future‑proofing integration choices to support AI effectiveness by enabling governed, timely, interoperable data flows and preventing fragmented AI pipelines.
Providing integration architecture governance and implementation guidance to delivery teams throughout the lifecycle (design → build → deploy).
Key responsibilities
1. Build a Modern, Simplified Integration Foundation
Design and maintain the enterprise integration reference architecture and guiding principles, ensuring teams have clear “how we integrate” standards.
Drive simplification by reducing bespoke and point‑to‑point integrations through reusable patterns and shared integration services.
Support convergence onto a coherent integration approach aligned to enterprise strategy and platform direction, avoiding duplicated tooling and inconsistent patterns.
2. API‑First and Event‑Driven Integration Patterns
Define and govern API integration and event integration patterns that enable consistent, real‑time and composable enterprise processes.
Provide practical design guidance to delivery teams on interface contracts, versioning, event schemas, error handling and operational considerations.
3. AI‑Ready Integration (Future‑Proofing for AI Effectiveness)
Ensure integration patterns enable AI and analytics solutions by supporting:
trusted, governed enterprise data flows
consistent event and API patterns
minimised data duplication and reconciliation effort
Partner with data and AI teams to ensure integration design supports scalable AI enablement (so AI use cases can be industrialised rather than rebuilt repeatedly).
4. Security, Resilience and Operability by Design
Embed authentication/authorization, encryption, audit-ability and control expectations into integration designs.
Ensure resilience patterns exist: retries, idempotency, dead‑letter handling, graceful degradation, and clear monitoring/alerting expectations.
Ensure integrations are production‑ready, supportable and observable.
5. Cross‑Domain Enablement & Enterprise Coherence
Work closely with Domain Architects (Commercial, Corporate Functions, QSC/R&D, ERP) to ensure integration choices enable end‑to‑end value streams and do not create cross‑domain friction.
Ensure integration choices support clean‑core discipline and enterprise interoperability to avoid rework and disruption.
6. Integration Governance & Architecture Assurance
