Senior Integration Architect

The Senior Integration Architect shapes the strategy, standards, target-state architecture and governance required to enable secure, scalable, resilient and reusable integration across the US Segment. The role provides architecture leadership across APIs, services, events, messaging, streaming, batch and hybrid integration, helping teams connect systems and exchange data consistently while reducing duplication and technical debt.

Working within the Domain Architecture team, the Senior Integration Architect will establish reusable architecture assets, govern critical design decisions, improve visibility of the integration estate and guide delivery teams toward interoperable, cloud-aligned integration solutions. The successful candidate will influence segment direction while remaining closely connected to practical delivery outcomes.

• Define and maintain the Integration Domain strategy, principles, standards, guardrails, reference architectures and target-state patterns, aligned with business priorities and enterprise architecture direction.
• Create and maintain multi-year integration roadmaps aligned with business strategy, modernization priorities, digital transformation objectives, technology investment plans, and architecture direction.
• Partner with technology delivery, domain architecture, platform engineering, security, data, infrastructure, cloud, and business stakeholders to translate strategic priorities into executable integration capabilities.
• Evaluate emerging integration technologies, platforms, AI-assisted engineering capabilities, and vendor solutions, and provide clear recommendations to senior technology leadership.
• Promote API-first, event-driven, cloud-native, secure-by-design, automation-first, and operationally resilient integration approaches where appropriate.
• Design and guide enterprise-grade integration solutions across APIs, event-driven architecture, real-time and batch integration, SaaS and vendor platforms, hybrid and multi-cloud patterns, legacy modernization, data integration, intelligent systems, and B2B or partner connectivity.
• Create and maintain a taxonomy and catalogue of current-state and desired integration patterns, including synchronous APIs, asynchronous messaging, event-driven, streaming and batch patterns, with clear selection and usage guidance.
• Create and maintain integration inventories, interface classifications, dependency maps and key interface attributes for Gold applications. Ensure relevant information is captured and maintained in LeanIX or other approved enterprise repositories.
• Act as the architecture authority for integration concerns by guiding solution architects and delivery teams, reviewing solution designs, documenting Architecture Decision Records and assessing integration exceptions against established standards.
• Own the architecture view of technology lifecycle and technical debt for integration platforms and technologies. Define remediation priorities and influence investment roadmaps.
• Partner with business, application, data, security, cloud, infrastructure and solution architecture stakeholders to resolve cross-domain dependencies and drive consistent architecture decisions.
• Perform architecture quality reviews, provide reusable guidance and mentoring, and communicate complex integration choices and trade-offs clearly to technical and non-technical stakeholders.

• 10+ years of experience designing, implementing, and supporting enterprise-grade integration solutions.
• Familiarity with one or more enterprise integration platforms or services, such as Mule Soft, Azure Integration Services, Kafka or Azure Event Hubs, enterprise service bus platforms, Informatica IICS, Azure Data Factory, or comparable technologies.
• Progressive experience in integration, solution, or domain architecture, with accountability for strategies, roadmaps, standards, reference architectures, and reusable patterns.
• Demonstrated experience designing integration solutions across APIs and services, event-driven architecture, messaging, streaming, batch integration, middleware, and cloud integration services.
• Strong knowledge of API architecture, management, and governance; REST and SOAP services; API contracts; asynchronous messaging and publish-subscribe patterns; microservices; and common…
