Recruiting Systems & Data Integration Engineer

Terpenebeltfarms; New York (NY); On-site; USD 110,000 - 140,000; Full time

Job summary

Terpenebeltfarms is seeking a Recruiting Systems & Data Integration Engineer to build and operate connections between engin and customer recruiting systems. You will own integrations across the full recruiting lifecycle, synchronizing jobs, applications, profiles, resumes, and data so Suzy can analyze and interview candidates.

You will design secure, scalable integrations, work with platforms like Merge and Kombo, and translate diverse ATS data models into a unified schema.

Responsibilities

• Build, maintain, and improve integrations between engin and customer ATS platforms.
• Synchronize jobs and their associated requirements, locations, compensation details, and status changes for distribution through engin.
• Ingest applications, candidate profiles, resumes, screening responses, and related records needed by Suzy to analyze and interview candidates.
• Reliably return relevant results and updates from engin and Suzy to customer systems.
• Capture downstream recruiting events such as submissions, interviews, offers, placements, starts, and hires.
• Translate different ATS data models and customer workflows into a consistent model spanning jobs, candidates, applications, activities, and outcomes.
• Build the data foundation for recruitment marketing attribution, funnel analysis, conversion measurement, and operational KPIs.
• Work with unified integration platforms such as Merge and Kombo while recognizing when their abstractions do not expose the required functionality or data.
• Integrate directly with ATS APIs, webhooks, reporting systems, scheduled exports, and other available interfaces.
• Design secure, maintainable agentic solutions for systems where conventional API-based integration is unavailable or incomplete.
• Build workflows to ingest, validate, transform, and produce XML data feeds.
• Operate high-volume synchronization workflows, including bulk imports, incremental updates, backfills, retries, and reconciliation.
• Handle pagination, rate limits, long-running jobs, partial failures, duplicate records, and inconsistent source data.
• Monitor integration health and investigate discrepancies between customer systems and engin.
• Create internal tooling that helps engineering and customer-facing teams diagnose integration issues.
• Partner with product, customer success, and engineering to define customer-specific integration requirements.
• Design integrations that protect sensitive candidate and customer data through secure authentication, least-privilege access, appropriate logging, and responsible data retention.
• Lead technical discovery and troubleshooting conversations with customer stakeholders during onboarding and ongoing operation, explaining complex integration issues clearly to both technical and nontechnical audiences.
• Work agent-first using tools such as Codex, Cursor, or Claude Code for implementation, investigation, testing, and documentation.
• Document integration architecture, customer configurations, data mappings, operational procedures, and known system limitations.

Job description

The Role

We’re looking for a Recruiting Systems & Data Integration Engineer to build and operate the connections between engin and our customers’ recruiting systems.

You will own integrations across the full recruiting lifecycle. At the top of the funnel, you will synchronize jobs for distribution and ingest applications, candidate profiles, resumes, and related data so Suzy, our AI agent, can analyze and interview candidates. Further down the funnel, you will capture events such as submissions, interviews, offers, placements, starts, and hires so customers can measure performance, attribution, and recruiting outcomes.

This role goes beyond traditional ATS integrations. ATS platforms vary widely in their APIs, data models, reporting capabilities, and integration maturity. When a standard integration through platforms such as Merge or Kombo is insufficient, you will determine the most reliable alternative. That may involve working directly with an ATS API, using webhooks or exports, processing XML feeds, or engineering agentic integration workflows when no clear API path is available.

You will own these integration problems from investigation through production operation.

What You’ll Do

• Build, maintain, and improve integrations between engin and customer ATS platforms.
• Synchronize jobs and their associated requirements, locations, compensation details, and status changes for distribution through engin.
• Ingest applications, candidate profiles, resumes, screening responses, and related records needed by Suzy to analyze and interview candidates.
• Reliably return relevant results and updates from engin and Suzy to customer systems.
• Capture downstream recruiting events such as submissions, interviews, offers, placements, starts, and hires.
• Translate different ATS data models and customer workflows into a consistent model spanning jobs, candidates, applications, activities, and outcomes.
• Build the data foundation for recruitment marketing attribution, funnel analysis, conversion measurement, and operational KPIs.
• Work with unified integration platforms such as Merge and Kombo while recognizing when their abstractions do not expose the required functionality or data.
• Integrate directly with ATS APIs, webhooks, reporting systems, scheduled exports, and other available interfaces.
• Design secure, maintainable agentic solutions for systems where conventional API-based integration is unavailable or incomplete.
• Build workflows to ingest, validate, transform, and produce XML data feeds.
• Operate high-volume synchronization workflows, including bulk imports, incremental updates, backfills, retries, and reconciliation.
• Handle pagination, rate limits, long-running jobs, partial failures, duplicate records, and inconsistent source data.
• Monitor integration health and investigate discrepancies between customer systems and engin.
• Create internal tooling that helps engineering and customer-facing teams diagnose integration issues.
• Partner with product, customer success, and engineering to define customer-specific integration requirements.
• Design integrations that protect sensitive candidate and customer data through secure authentication, least-privilege access, appropriate logging, and responsible data retention.
• Lead technical discovery and troubleshooting conversations with customer stakeholders during onboarding and ongoing operation, explaining complex integration issues clearly to both technical and nontechnical audiences.
• Work agent-first using tools such as Codex, Cursor, or Claude Code for implementation, investigation, testing, and documentation.
• Document integration architecture, customer configurations, data mappings, operational procedures, and known system limitations.

Why This Role Matters

ATS integrations are the foundation of engin’s product experience. Jobs must flow accurately into engin for distribution, and applications and candidate data must be available to Suzy so she can analyze, screen, and interview candidates effectively. The resulting activity and outcomes must then flow back into customer systems.

Customers also need visibility into what happens throughout the recruiting lifecycle—from job distribution and candidate acquisition through submissions, interviews, placements, and hires. Accurate, timely data enables automation, improves the candidate experience, and allows customers to understand the return on their recruiting efforts.

You will build the infrastructure that connects this entire lifecycle, even when the underlying ATS makes it difficult.
