About the Role

We're hiring an Informatica Integration Lead to own the integration workstream on an enterprise Informatica SaaS MDM implementation. You'll decide how data moves into and out of the MDM hub, set the standards the rest of the team builds against, and stay hands‑on enough to review the mappings that ship.

You’ll join the data practice of a global AI‑first technology consultancy that delivers large‑scale transformation work for well‑known enterprises. This is a direct hire role, hybrid with 3 days a week in a local office in one of seven metros. You’ll also lead two offshore integration developers, so the job is part architecture and part making a small team better every sprint.

If you've spent years in Informatica and want to be the person setting the integration direction rather than inheriting it, this is that seat.

What You'll Do

• Lead the end‑to‑end integration workstream for an Informatica SaaS MDM implementation
• Design, build, test, and deploy integrations using IDMC, CDI, CDQ, IICS/IAC, and related Informatica cloud services
• Connect enterprise source systems, applications, APIs, and downstream data platforms to the MDM hub
• Set the integration architecture: patterns, reusable components, mapping standards, and development practices
• Build batch, real‑time, API‑based, and event‑driven integrations, picking the right pattern for each source
• Source‑to‑target mappings, transformation logic, error handling, and reconciliation, documented so others can maintain them
• Direct two offshore integration developers day to day, including work allocation, code reviews, and quality checks
• Partner with MDM architects, data stewards, business analysts, and source system owners to turn requirements into working pipelines
• Troubleshoot production issues and support planning, estimation, testing, deployment, and hypercare

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Engineering, or a related field
• 10+ years of hands‑on Informatica experience, including IDMC, IICS, Application Integration (IAC), Cloud Data Integration (CDI), and Cloud Data Quality (CDQ)
• Experience with Informatica MDM, on SaaS or traditional platforms
• A track record of leading integration development on large enterprise implementations
• Solid grasp of enterprise integration patterns, with experience across REST APIs, web services, file‑based interfaces, and message‑based integrations
• Strong SQL, plus data transformation, profiling, validation, and reconciliation experience
• Experience leading technical teams and coordinating offshore resources in Agile delivery
• Strong analytical and troubleshooting skills, and the ability to explain tradeoffs clearly
• Based within commuting distance of one of the listed metros

Nice to Have

• Integrating Informatica with Snowflake
• Airbyte for ingestion and data movement
• Customer, Product, Supplier, or Reference Data Management programs

Why Join Us

You’ll be the technical lead on a workstream the whole MDM program depends on, inside a practice that treats data management as a core discipline rather than a side project. The team pairs deep Informatica expertise with modern cloud platforms, and the work spans enterprise clients across many industries.

If you want ownership of the integration architecture and a team to build it with, we'd like to talk.
