Orbis is a technology company that delivers sovereign intelligence and decision capabilities to the United States Government and its allies. We convert complex information and operational systems into decisive outcomes, giving public institutions and critical enterprises the tools to move faster, see clearer, and act first in an increasingly contested world. We are not a consulting firm and not a systems integrator.

Every Orbis team is built around practitioners who have operated at the mission edge, and every engagement is judged on one thing: whether it produces working capability, not slide decks. Solutions forged from experience; that is how we build, and it is how we hire.

Orbis is seeking a Senior Integration Architect to lead integration delivery within one of three rotating integration teams supporting an ongoing program for a government client in the Middle East. In this role, you will design, build, deploy, and validate data integrations (sensors, C2 systems, and operational feeds) across Orbis data governance and data analysis products, driving assignments from requirement through production deployment in close coordination with your team.

A critical part of this role is working directly with customer engineering and operations teams to map their network topology, data sources, and system dependencies before integration work begins; this discovery is not a preliminary step that gets handed off, it is a continuous responsibility that drives every design and deployment decision. You will mentor Integration Engineers on your team, serve as the first escalation point for technical issues, and maintain integration quality across your assigned domain.

This role carries direct responsibility for the orchestration and management of both on-premises data platform environments and cloud-connected infrastructure. Software-layer issues are escalated to the platform product team. This is a hands-on engineering role for someone ready to shape how integration work gets done, raise the technical bar of the team around them, and ensure the platform infrastructure underpinning that work is properly configured, connected, and maintained.

Travel: This is a remote role with extended travel to the Middle East, including time spent in geopolitical hot zones up to 40% of the time. Please apply if you are willing to meet this requirement.

• Lead full-lifecycle integration delivery for assigned data sources in coordination with your team: requirements analysis, connector design, implementation, testing, deployment, and validation in the target environment
• Lead customer technical discovery as a core responsibility: work directly with customer engineering and operations teams to map their network topology, data sources, system dependencies, and operational constraints; this understanding is the foundation that integration design and deployment decisions are built on and cannot be delegated or skipped
• Drive technical decisions when integrations don't fit established patterns; document decisions and rationale for the team and contribute to shared architectural standards
• Mentor Integration Engineers through code review, pairing, and direct feedback; serve as the first point of escalation before the team lead
• Design and build custom data connectors and integration plugins (producer bridges,…
