Technical Lead - Integration & Digital Solutions

We're looking for a Technical Lead to join a technology team and take ownership of a broad range of integrations, digital platforms and technical solutions across the business.

This is a hands-on role for someone who enjoys working across different technologies and solving practical technical challenges. You'll be involved in everything from EDI and e-procurement integrations, APIs and middleware through to internal web platforms, ETL processes and automation.

You won't be expected to spend all your time developing software. Instead, you'll use your technical expertise to maintain, improve and connect a diverse range of systems, while acting as a technical point of escalation for complex issues.

What you'll be doing

Integration & EDI

• Own and maintain EDI and e-procurement integrations across customers and suppliers.
• Develop and maintain integration maps using XML, CSV and JSON, primarily through the Babelway EDI platform.
• Work directly with customers and suppliers to understand technical requirements and support the onboarding of new integrations.
• Maintain and enhance internal integration scripts using PowerShell, PHP and TypeScript.
• Troubleshoot integration and data-flow issues, ensuring reliable movement of information between systems.

Development & Digital Platforms

• Provide technical ownership and support across a range of internal and customer-facing web platforms.
• Maintain and enhance PHP-based applications, including platforms built using ProcessWire.
• Support a portfolio of websites and digital applications, balancing ongoing maintenance with new development and improvements.
• Identify opportunities to improve the reliability, performance and maintainability of existing solutions.
• Design, build and maintain integrations between internal systems, databases and external platforms.
• Develop and maintain Pentaho ETL transformations supporting the company's Product Information Management (PIM) environment.
• Build integrations between MS SQL Server and external services including OrderCloud, LoginRadius and Content Hub.
• Develop and maintain PowerShell automation, PHP webhooks and API integrations.
• Investigate data and integration issues across multiple systems and identify appropriate technical solutions.

Technical Leadership & Support

• Act as a technical point of escalation for applications, integrations and digital platforms.
• Take ownership of technical problems from investigation through to resolution.
• Work closely with internal teams, customers, suppliers and third-party technology providers.
• Help shape technical solutions and make recommendations around integration, automation and system improvements.
• Contribute to improving development, integration and support practices across the wider technology function.

What we're looking for

We're looking for someone with strong practical technical experience who is comfortable working across multiple technologies and systems.

• Strong experience with PHP
• Strong PowerShell scripting experience
• Experience working with REST APIs and webhooks
• Good understanding of XML, JSON and CSV
• Experience with SQL and Microsoft SQL Server
• Experience building or maintaining ETL/data integration processes
• Strong troubleshooting and problem-solving skills
• Experience working with third parties, customers or suppliers on technical integrations
• Ability to take ownership of technical issues and see them through to resolution
