Responsibilities

Administer and operate Boomi (Atoms/Molecules, environments, deployments, runtime management, upgrades, monitoring, governance).
Develop AI assisted templates or workflows using Boomi Agent Studio
Administer and operate Confluent Cloud and Confluent Platform on EKS:
Kafka cluster operations, capacity planning, partitioning strategy, consumer group health, topic lifecycle management
RBAC/ACLs, encryption, audit logging, schema governance, connector operations
Build and maintain operational standards for event streaming + iPaaS platforms (backup/restore, DR, HA, upgrades, patching).
Own availability, latency, performance, and cost outcomes for Boomi and Confluent platforms.
Define and operationalize SLOs/SLIs, error budgets, runbooks, escalation paths, and on-call readiness for integration and event streaming platforms.
Lead incident response, problem management, postmortems, and continuous improvement to reduce MTTR/MTBF and improve reliability.
Build and standardize CI/CD pipelines for integration and streaming artifacts (Boomi deployments, Kafka/Confluent resources, schemas, connectors).
Implement policy-as-code, secrets management, automated testing, and release governance aligned with DevSecOps best practices.
Drive Infrastructure as Code (IaC) and automation for platform provisioning (environments, topics, ACLs, schemas, connectors, monitoring).
Eliminate manual operations by scripting and automation across Boomi/Confluent (e.g., Python, Bash, PowerShell).
Create reusable operational utilities to standardize onboarding, provisioning, access requests, schema changes, connector management, and deployment workflows.

Implement end-to-end observability using Datadog: Metrics/logs/traces, dashboards, service maps, alerts, anomaly detection
Correlation across integrations, Kafka pipelines, and infrastructure
Enable AIOps workflows (noise reduction, alert tuning, automated remediation hooks, intelligent incident routing).
Build a self-service portal and “golden path” templates to enable teams to onboard integrations/events quickly with security compliance.
Establish an Event Marketplace approach (catalog, discovery, ownership metadata, governance workflows) to support ML/AI patterns and reuse.
Support migration and modernization patterns from: TIBCO BWCE, Oracle SOA → Boomi + event-driven APIs/events
EDI/RosettaNet (TIBCO B2B) → modern B2B patterns and managed onboarding
IBM Sterling MFT → automated file/event hybrid patterns and governance
Informatica Cloud jobs → modern integration/event/ELT patterns where appropriate
