About Role

• Integrate with core banking, CRM, DMS, payment, credit bureau (e.g. SIMAH) and government services (e.g. Nafath, Yakeen) via the bank’s API gateway/ESB
• Implement secure authentication: OAuth 2.0, mTLS, API keys, SAML/OIDC SSO and LDAP/AD group sync
• Develop custom Java plug-ins (smart services, functions, connected system plug-ins) where out-of-the-box features fall short
• Design for resilience: retries, timeouts, idempotency, error queues and asynchronous patterns with Kafka/MQ
• Handle file-based and batch integrations (SFTP, bulk loads) securely
• Implement integration logging, monitoring and alerting; support production incidents
• Produce interface specifications and work with downstream system owners on contract changes

• 10+ years of total experience, including 5+ years of Appian integrations
• Strong enterprise integration or Java background
• Appian Certified Senior Developer (mandatory)
• Notice period of 1 month, or immediate joiners preferred

• Expert in Appian Connected Systems, Integrations and Web APIs
• Strong Java (Java 11+), REST/SOAP, JSON/XML and OpenAPI/WSDL
• Experience with API gateways and middleware (e.g. Apigee, Kong, IBM ACE/IIB, MuleSoft)
• Messaging: Kafka, IBM MQ or RabbitMQ
• Security standards for banking integrations, encryption and secret management
• Strong analytical, troubleshooting and communication skills

Nice to Have
