Job description

Integration Architect – Enterprise Integration & Cloud Contract | ASAP – 31 March 2027 | $140–$150/hr

We’re looking for an experienced Integration Architect to take a lead role within a significant, multi-year technology modernisation programme.

This is a genuine architecture role. You’ll define and govern integration across applications, cloud platforms, data services, workflows and external partners, while helping establish the standards and reusable patterns that will underpin the wider programme. The remit includes API-led integration, event-driven architecture, messaging, microservices and cloud integration across Azure and AWS.

You’ll work across architecture, delivery and vendor teams, producing HLDs and detailed designs, setting integration standards and taking designs through architecture governance and ARB approval.

We’re Looking For Someone With

• Significant Integration Architecture experience in complex enterprise environments
• Strong API architecture and API governance capability
• Azure Integration Services and API Management experience, or comparable enterprise tooling
• Strong knowledge of event-driven architecture, messaging and microservices
• Experience integrating cloud, SaaS, COTS and legacy platforms
• Good Azure and AWS knowledge
• A strong track record producing HLDs, detailed designs and architecture artefacts
• Confidence working with senior stakeholders, vendors and delivery teams
• Experience taking designs through formal architecture governance

This is not an integration developer role. We’re looking for someone who can set the architecture, establish the patterns and provide assurance over delivery.

Public sector or regulated-environment experience would be useful but is not essential.

$140–$150/hr.

You must be a New Zealand citizen, resident, or have already secured the right to work in New Zealand and therefore hold a valid visa.
