Descripción de la vacante

Toloka AI, a remote-first data platform powering GenAI, is looking for a freelance Integration Engineer to join our Corporate Infrastructure team. You will build and maintain integrations that connect our ATS, HRIS, project tracking tools, and surrounding infrastructure, ensuring reliable and secure data flow.

This hands-on role covers requirements analysis, webhook design, integration architecture, security, and end-to-end data propagation.

Formación

• Solid experience building integrations via REST APIs and webhooks.
• Strong Python for scripting and integration logic.
• Experience with cloud infrastructure; Azure is a plus.
• Secure data handling: OAuth2 / API-key auth, secrets management, handling of sensitive PII.
• Able to own design decisions and documenting trade-offs independently, not only executing a predefined spec.
• Able to work with Jira as part of a broader technical workflow.

Responsabilidades

• Understand existing processes and translate ambiguous or high-level requirements into concrete technical solutions.
• Define the target architecture for each data flow: systems of record, sync direction and frequency, event-driven vs. batch, and the error/reconciliation strategy.
• Create design and technical documentation.
• Build and maintain integrations between people systems (ATS, HRIS, project tracking tools).
• Design and implement webhook connections and event-driven data flows.
• Own field mapping and data transformation between systems with differing schemas.
• Migrate legacy integrations and update them to reflect current business logic.
• Ensure data is correctly propagated end-to-end across connected systems.
• Handle PII to a high standard: data minimization, least-privilege API scopes, secrets management and audit trails.
• Audit integrations on a BAU basis - verifying data is processed, synced, and stored correctly.
• Implement monitoring and error-handling to catch failures early.

About position

We're looking for a freelance Integration Engineer to join our Corporate Infrastructure team. You'll build and maintain the integrations that connect our people systems — making our ATS, HRIS, project tracking tools, and surrounding infrastructure communicate reliably and securely.

This is a hands-on technical role: analyzing requirements, designing webhook flows and integration architecture, building and debugging integrations, implementing security requirement, and ensuring data moves correctly between systems.

You'll work on an hourly basis against a prioritized backlog, but you're expected to help shape it, proposing solutions and owning the design, with product direction from the HR Tech owner and technical oversight from Engineering.
