Assistant Vice President - Integration - IT (9-15 yrs)

Key Responsibilities:

1. Technical Analysis and Solution Design:

- Analyze and decompose complex business and technical requirements into actionable integration designs.

- Create detailed technical specifications, including data mapping, protocol specifications, and flow diagrams, to ensure seamless interoperability across systems.

2. Architectural Development:

- Design and document enterprise integration architectures, including technical workflows, error-handling strategies, and sequence diagrams.

- Define standards for integration patterns, including synchronous, asynchronous, and event-driven architectures.

3. Protocol Expertise:

- Architect integration solutions using modern protocols and frameworks such as:

o gRPC for efficient communication between microservices in distributed systems.

o WebSocket for real-time communication in applications like live chat or stock trading platforms.

o AMQP (Advanced Message Queuing Protocol) and MQTT for IoT and lightweight messaging.

o Traditional SOAP-based services for legacy system integration.

o RESTful APIs with JSON and XML payloads for interoperability across diverse platforms.

4. Integration Platforms and Tools:

Utilize and configure enterprise integration platforms and tools such as:

-API gateways (e.g., Kong, Apigee, AWS API Gateway) for secure and efficient API management.

- Enterprise Service Buses (ESBs) like MuleSoft, WSO2, TIBCO, or IBM Integration Bus to facilitate system interoperability.

- Message brokers and queues (e.g., Apache Kafka, RabbitMQ, ActiveMQ) to implement publish-subscribe patterns and event-driven architectures.

5. System Interoperability:

- Enable seamless communication and data exchange across heterogeneous systems using:

- API management platforms to unify and orchestrate internal and external APIs.

- Middleware technologies to bridge legacy systems with modern cloud-native applications.

- Data format conversion tools to standardize JSON, XML, and CSV exchanges across diverse systems.

6. Performance, Scalability, and Resilience:

- Design integration architectures that ensure high availability, fault tolerance, and performance under heavy workloads.

- Optimize messaging pipelines and data flows to meet strict SLA requirements.

- Conduct load and performance testing using tools such as JMeter or Gatling to validate integration performance.

7. Security and Compliance:

- Implement secure communication protocols, including OAuth 2.0, OpenID Connect, SAML, and JWT.

- Ensure integrations adhere to organizational and regulatory standards (e.g., GDPR, HIPAA).

8. Collaboration and Leadership:

- Work closely with developers, DevOps teams, and business stakeholders to ensure successful solution delivery.

- Provide technical guidance on integration best practices and mentor team members.

9. Monitoring and Troubleshooting:

- Implement monitoring frameworks for integration solutions using tools like Splunk, ELK Stack, or Prometheus.

- Troubleshoot and resolve complex integration issues, leveraging tools such as Postman, SoapUI, and custom logging mechanisms.
