• Provide hands‑on technical leadership for solution architecture, development, troubleshooting, code reviews, testing, and quality assurance across MuleSoft and AWS integration components.
• Implement authentication, authorization, encryption, logging, monitoring, and alerting controls that protect customer and operational data while improving service reliability and incident response.

• Collaborate with product owners, business analysts, utilities subject‑matter experts, infrastructure teams, and cloud teams to translate requirements into integration designs and coordinate hybrid delivery within agreed timelines.
• Maintain architecture documents, mapping specifications, and operational runbooks, while mentoring engineers on API design, integration troubleshooting, reusable assets, and utilities‑domain practices.

• 10–13 years of enterprise integration experience, including proven technical leadership in designing and delivering complex, business‑critical solutions.
• Strong hands‑on expertise in MuleSoft Anypoint Platform, including API‑led connectivity, Mule applications, integration patterns, DataWeave, deployment, and troubleshooting.
• Deep experience with API Manager and end‑to‑end API lifecycle management, including API design, governance, policy enforcement, analytics, versioning, monitoring, and continuous improvement.
• Working experience with AWS Kiro or comparable AI‑assisted, specification‑driven engineering tools for creating designs, code, tests, documentation, and repeatable development workflows.
• Strong knowledge of API and integration security, including authentication, authorization, encryption, secure communication, compliance controls, and protection of customer and operational data.
• Experience implementing resilient integration services with effective logging, monitoring, alerting, performance tuning, high availability, and incident‑response practices.
• Utilities domain experience, preferably involving outage management processes, service‑status communication, restoration workflows, or other operationally critical integrations.
• MuleSoft Certified Integration Architect or an equivalent enterprise integration certification relevant to MuleSoft and API management, with strong stakeholder communication, team mentoring, and hybrid‑delivery coordination skills.
