Requirements

What we're looking for

Solid experience (+8 years) in integration architecture, backend, or platforms.
Strong background in API-first architectures and event-driven systems.
Experience in enterprise cloud environments (AWS essential, Azure valued).
Knowledge of API Management, OpenAPI, and API lifecycle.
Experience working with security, architecture, and compliance teams.
Ability to influence without direct authority.

Nice to have

AWS (API Gateway, Lambda, EventBridge, SQS/SNS, EKS)
Kafka / messaging / event streaming
API Management (Apigee, Kong, MuleSoft or similar)
CI/CD (GitLab, Jenkins, GitHub Actions)
Terraform / IaC
OpenAPI / AsyncAPI

The role

We are looking for someone who wants to go beyond traditional delivery and become a key piece in the evolution of our integration architecture.

You will work in a highly distributed and regulated enterprise cloud environment, where the focus is on building scalable, consistent platforms that are truly aligned with modern integration standards.

We are not just looking to build APIs or integrations: we are looking to define how they are built across the entire organization.

What you'll do

Lead the evolution towards an API-first and event-driven architecture.
Define and promote integration standards in cloud environments.
Support development teams as a technical reference (enablement, not control).
Design solutions in AWS environments and collaborate with teams in Azure where applicable.
Drive CI/CD, DevSecOps, and automation practices.
Progressively reduce legacy file-based integrations.
Ensure consistency between architecture, security, and compliance.

🎯 What makes this role special

Real impact on how integrations are built across the entire organization.
A role with cross-functional influence in architecture, development, and security.
Evolution from legacy models towards modern architectures.
An environment where technical judgment is valued above bureaucracy.

📊 How we measure success

Fewer file-based integrations.
More APIs and events aligned with standards.
Fewer architectural exceptions.
Improved time-to-market even in regulated environments.
More autonomous teams thanks to architectural support.
