Job description

Integration Lead

You shape the integration landscape that connects Q8Truck, its partners, and the future of transport.

Antwerp or Rotterdam | International | Full-time

Shaping the future of transport. And your next move?

At Q8Truck, we're shaping the future of transport. As a mobility partner for international transport companies, Q8Truck combines a European network, secure fuel card solutions, and smart fleet services that help customers manage their fleets efficiently and with full control. Digitalization, new services, and international growth are transforming the transport industry.

That transformation brings a growing need to connect platforms, partners, telematics systems, security solutions, and authorization flows. And APIs are at the heart of those connections.

Your biggest challenge

As API Integration Lead, you take strategic ownership of Q8Truck's integration landscape. You define how integrations should work, design solutions, manage the integration portfolio and roadmap, and lead everything needed to turn those designs into secure and stable solutions.

Your goal? Build and manage a secure, scalable, and future-proof integration landscape that supports Q8Truck's digital ambitions.

• You take ownership of Q8Truck's API and integration landscape. You manage the roadmap, set priorities, and lead the full integration lifecycle, from analysis and design to implementation and operations.
• You design integration solutions and APIs and set clear architecture, development, and governance standards. You stay close enough to the content to challenge designs and ensure teams and suppliers follow those standards.
• You lead API and Integration designers, developers, suppliers, and partners. You set priorities, delegate effectively, and keep delivery, quality, timing, and budget on track.
• You connect platforms, telematics systems, partners, and services through secure and stable integrations.
• You bring business, IT, security, and external stakeholders together. You communicate technical choices clearly, create alignment, and take the lead when complex integration issues need to be solved.
• You keep the integration landscape stable through monitoring, testing, hypercare, and continuous improvement, while translating new developments in API management, security, and automation into the roadmap.

In short: you own the integration domain within Q8Truck. You set the direction, understand the technology, and make sure teams and partners turn that vision into secure, stable, and scalable integrations.

This is you

• You have a bachelor's or master's degree in computer science or a related field and at least 5 years of experience in API integration and development.
• You combine strong API design and integration expertise with conceptual thinking. You understand complex integration flows, architecture principles, governance, and what it takes to make integrations stable and scalable.
• You have solid experience with API management, iPaaS, or ESB platforms such as WSO2, IBM API Connect, Apigee, MuleSoft, Dell Boomi, or similar technologies, as well as on-premises and cloud integrations.
• You have experience leading teams and managing complex projects, suppliers, stakeholders, and budgets.
• You think analytically, communicate clearly, and connect business and technology with ease. You speak and write English fluently.

What's in it for you?

• A competitive salary with a comprehensive benefits package: A company car, mobile phone and subscription (depending on the role), health insurance, pension plan, holiday allowance, year-end bonus, bike leasing, net expense allowance, performance bonus, and at least 36 vacation days.
• Hybrid working: Work from home or from our modern offices in Antwerp or Rotterdam, with the latest tools to help you work efficiently.
• A warm welcome: Join a certified Pioneering Employer and enjoy sports activities, clubs, events, family days, and our BeWell wellbeing program.
• Room to grow: Keep developing through training, coaching, and plenty of opportunities to take the next step in your career.
• A strong network and a great place to work: Tap into the strength of our broad network and work alongside colleagues in close-knit, supportive teams.

Ready for a job with drive?

Do you want to do more than coordinate integrations? Take ownership of Q8Truck's integration landscape, set the standards, and connect technology, security, partners, and business in solutions built for the future.

Bring your technical vision, leadership, and drive to Q8Truck.
