They lead all aspects of integration design as it moves through the implementation process, coordinating changes by keeping an eye on delivery plans and sharing updates.

You'll play a key role in leading API design, managing integration strategies, and setting design standards and policies to ensure our APIs are secure, scalable, and efficient.
