Senior Integration Architect & iPaaS Engineer

Archer Aviation•San Jose, CA

36d•$163,200 - $204,000

About The Position

We are looking for a hands-on Senior Integration Architect who will design and build modern integration solutions across our enterprise systems. This role combines architecture, standards definition, and hands-on iPaaS development (Workato preferred). The ideal candidate understands when to use APIs vs events vs file-based vs EDI etc. and can translate that into scalable patterns and real working integrations. Data Architecture is a secondary but important part of this role-focused on data flow design, payload modeling, and ensuring integrations deliver high-quality, well-structured data to consuming systems.

Requirements

10-12+ years of progressive experience in integration engineering, architecture, or iPaaS development.
Substantial hands-on experience with Workato or an equivalent iPaaS platform (e.g., Boomi, Mulesoft, SAP Integration Suite, SnapLogic).
Deep understanding of various integration mechanisms: REST APIs, SOAP, event-driven architecture, EDI, and file-based methods.
Demonstrated experience integrating major Enterprise systems (SAP, Workday etc.) with cloud-based SaaS applications.
Proven ability to create professional integration diagrams, decision frameworks, sequence diagrams, and detailed architectural documentation.
Solid foundational understanding of data flow design, payload modeling, and data quality principles.

Nice To Haves

Experience with other advanced data and integration platforms
Comprehensive knowledge of industry EDI standards (X12, EDIFACT) and VAN/SFTP-based integration methodologies.
Familiarity with Workato's enterprise governance and lifecycle management features.
Prior experience within manufacturing, supply chain, finance, or regulated industry environments.

Responsibilities

Define and govern enterprise integration patterns and decision frameworks (e.g., API, EDI, event-driven, file/SFTP, Workato orchestrations).
Architect complex end-to-end integrations spanning ERP (e.g., SAP S/4), SaaS, data platforms, and MES.
Establish rigorous standards for API contracts, event schemas, cataloging, error handling, observability, and security.
Develop reusable integration components and enforce best practices across development teams.
Build, test, and deploy integrations using Workato or comparable iPaaS platforms.
Create reusable recipes, connectors, and accelerators.
Troubleshoot and optimize existing flows for superior performance, reliability, and maintainability.
Provide immediate, hands-on support for critical production incidents.
Design comprehensive source-to-target data mappings and integration payload structures.
Ensure integrations deliver clean, complete, and high-quality data to consuming analytical systems (e.g., Snowflake, Foundry).
Document data lineage for critical integration flows (excluding full enterprise-wide data modeling).
Collaborate with Data Engineering teams to align integration patterns with analytical requirements.
Partner with functional teams, product owners, and application developers to translate business processes into robust integration flows.
Provide architectural oversight and conduct rigorous peer reviews.
Influence application teams toward adopting clean-core extensibility and scalable integration patterns.
Ensure strict adherence to enterprise security frameworks (e.g., OAuth2, certificate management, secret rotation).
Establish comprehensive monitoring and alerting standards.
Lead integration performance tuning and long-term capacity planning efforts.
