Job description

Principal Engineer – Enterprise Integrations

US-based | East Coast or Texas preferred

Lead complex integrations. Shape technical solutions. Influence how enterprise systems work together.

We're partnering with an established B2B SaaS business that is expanding its US engineering and delivery capability and is looking for a Principal Engineer – Enterprise Integrations.

This is a senior technical role for someone who operates comfortably across engineering, architecture, data and client delivery.

You won't simply receive a specification and build what has been requested.

You'll work with clients and internal technical teams to understand complex problems, investigate existing environments, challenge assumptions and design solutions that are reliable, scalable and maintainable.

If you're someone who enjoys moving between architecture, data, code and stakeholder conversations, this could be a great opportunity.

Why this role is different

Enterprise integrations are rarely difficult because two systems need to communicate.

The real complexity lies in understanding how information moves through an organisation, what that data represents, how systems depend on one another and what happens when something changes.

You'll need to think about:

• Where data originates and how it should be consumed.
• Data quality, transformation and dependencies.
• Downstream impacts when systems or data change.
• Scalability and long-term maintainability.
• Integration patterns and architectural decisions.
• Technical risks and trade-offs.
• Balancing technical quality with customer and commercial requirements.

You'll be expected to advise, challenge and influence, not simply implement predefined requirements.

What you'll be doing

You’ll provide senior technical leadership across complex enterprise integration programmes, including:

• Leading solution architecture and technical design.
• Providing technical consultancy to client‑facing and delivery teams.
• Working directly with senior stakeholders to understand technical challenges and recommend solutions.
• Designing and delivering robust, scalable integrations.
• Understanding enterprise data flows, transformations and dependencies.
• Investigating existing systems, integrations and codebases.
• Getting hands‑on with development, troubleshooting and technical problem solving when required.
• Identifying technical risks and trade‑offs early.
• Feeding recurring technical challenges into Engineering and Product.
• Developing reusable integration patterns, standards and best practices.
• Mentoring engineers and technical consultants.Collaborating with distributed engineering and delivery teams.

We're looking for strong experience across enterprise integration, cloud and data technologies, including:

• Enterprise integration technologies
• SQL & relational databases
• ETL / ELT
• CI/CD & DevOps

You don't need to be an expert in every technology.

What's important is that you have a strong technical foundation and can understand unfamiliar systems, investigate existing implementations and make sound architectural decisions.

Who are we looking for?

Your current title could be:

Principal Engineer | Integration Architect | Solutions Architect | Technical Consultant | Data Architect | Lead Integration Engineer

The title isn't important.

We're looking for someone who has developed from a strong hands‑on technical background into architecture, consulting and technical leadership.

You’ll bring

• 8+ years' experience delivering complex enterprise technology or integration projects.
• 5+ years' experience working with modern cloud data, integration or data engineering technologies.
• 5+ years' programming experience and the ability to understand existing codebases.
• Strong understanding of enterprise data, integrations and system dependencies.
• Experience designing solutions rather than simply implementing predefined requirements.
• Strong client‑facing communication and stakeholder management skills.
• The confidence to challenge requirements constructively.
• The ability to explain complex technical decisions to technical and non‑technical audiences.
• Strong judgement around scalability, maintainability, data quality and technical debt.
• The ability to bring structure and clarity to ambiguous technical problems.

You’ll stand out if you have

• Experience within enterprise SaaS, consulting or systems integration.
• Experience working with large, complex enterprise platforms.
• Experience integrating with major business‑critical systems.
• Experience working with high‑volume or business‑critical data.
• Experience creating reusable integration frameworks, patterns or technical standards.
• Experience mentoring engineers or technical consultants.
• Experience influencing product or engineering teams based on real‑world customer requirements.
• Experience working directly with enterprise customers or senior technical stakeholders.

The business is investing in its US presence, giving you the opportunity to join at a point where your technical input can have a genuine impact.

You'll have the opportunity to influence:

Data and technical strategy

How the technical function scales

You’ll work on complex enterprise problems, have exposure to senior stakeholders and help shape how integrations are designed and delivered as the organisation grows.

This isn't about maintaining the status quo. It's about helping define what good looks like.

What's on offer?

• Generous annual leave allowance
• Regular team events and company‑wide meetings
• Plus the opportunity to work alongside a smart, collaborative team solving genuinely complex technical problems.

The bottom line

We're not looking for someone who simply knows how to build an integration.

We're looking for someone who understands the technology, the data, the customer and the long‑term consequences of the solution they’re recommending.

Someone who can get deep into a technical problem, challenge a requirement, guide stakeholders towards a better solution and help engineers deliver it.

If you're the person people turn to when an enterprise integration problem is too complex, too ambiguous or too important for a standard approach...

we'd love to hear from you.
