Job description

Are you an experienced Integration Architect looking to take ownership of large-scale enterprise integration across a complex hybrid environment? In this critical contract role running initially to May 2027, you will define and govern the target-state integration and modern development landscape. Working alongside multi-disciplinary architecture and delivery teams, you will establish reusable patterns, practical standards, and key repositories that drive resilience, security, and long-term digital capability.

What You Will Do:

• Define current, target, and transition states for integration and development architectures, supported by a prioritised implementation roadmap.

• Build, populate, and govern core architectural artefacts, including the integration catalogue, API registry, interface matrix, and platform inventory.

• Establish comprehensive reference architectures, design guardrails, and standards across SAP Integration Suite, SAP BTP, and Microsoft Azure Integration Services.

• Deliver a governed pattern catalogue covering synchronous APIs, asynchronous messaging, event-driven architectures, batch processing, and managed file transfers.

• Lead architecture reviews, create architecture decision records, and guide delivery teams to embed secure-by-design, resilient, and observable practices.

What You Need to Apply for This Role:

• Substantial architecture experience across enterprise integration, APIs, middleware, messaging, event-driven platforms, and hybrid integration spanning SAP, Microsoft Azure, and SaaS environments.

• Deep technical expertise in SAP Integration Suite and SAP BTP concepts, combined with hands-on knowledge of Microsoft Azure Integration Services (API Management, Logic Apps, Service Bus, Event Grid, and Functions).

• Proven capability defining API lifecycle, versioning, discoverability, streaming, CDC, and batch patterns, including robust security, secret management, resilience, and observability.

• Strong knowledge of modern software architecture, cloud-native development, Git-based delivery, CI/CD, Azure DevOps, automated testing, and infrastructure as code.

• Demonstrated excellence in architectural decision-making, stakeholder facilitation, and governance, underpinned by relevant tertiary qualifications or equivalent experience (TOGAF, Azure, or SAP certifications highly desirable).

You must be a Brisbane based candidate with unlimited working rights to be considered.
