- Drive GraphQL adoption across business units and application teams
- Collaborate with segment architects and technical stakeholders
- Support the GraphQL technical roadmap and delivery planning
- Translate high-level requirements into actionable technical work
- Ensure solutions align with enterprise architecture and security policies
- Design and implement enterprise integration architectures
- Support API-led architecture and API Management solutions
- Establish scalable and robust GraphQL integration patterns
- Work with observability solutions such as OpenTelemetry and Splunk
- Guide and mentor engineering teams on GraphQL architecture and implementation
What You Bring
- 10+ years of experience in integration, software architecture or a similar technical field
- Strong experience with integration implementation and architecture
- Hands-on experience building GraphQL subgraphs and federated supergraphs from scratch
- Strong knowledge of GraphQL schema design, queries, mutations and subscriptions
- Strong understanding of GraphQL schema governance and versioning
- Experience with GraphQL platform/middleware implementation
- Experience with API-led architecture

- Experience working with OpenTelemetry and/or Splunk

- Strong technical leadership and stakeholder-management skills
- Excellent presentation, documentation and guideline-writing skills
- Ability to guide and mentor technical teams
