Responsibilities
Enterprise Architecture & Platform Evolution
Architect, design, build, and centrally manage an enterprise-grade, scalable MuleSoft platform and runtime architecture, avoiding siloed separate tenants and enabling cross-program resource sharing and governance.
Establish and scale a centralized enterprise data hub and enterprise gateway to expose modular APIs and secure data services across Army logistics, financial ERPs, trading partners, and enterprise systems.
Support multi-program enablement and testing workflows, architecting environment configurations to scale beyond single-instance constraints and support concurrent partner testing, validation, and sandbox work within government cloud environments.
Lead the modernization of legacy point-to-point and batch integrations into modular, service-oriented, API-led connectivity layers (System, Process, and Experience APIs).
Hands-on API Design & Integration Development
Act as the hands-on technical lead to design, implement and administer API managers to include disparate instances, runtime environments, client applications, contracts, SLA Tiers, policy applications, versioning and lifecycle promotion.
Design and maintain clear API specifications and interface agreements using RAML, OpenAPI, JSON, XML, WSDL, and modern interface definitions.
Construct complex, high-performance data transformations and mappings using DataWeave across heterogeneous data formats (JSON, XML, CSV, flat files, and database records).
Integrate core enterprise applications, authoritative data sources, and ERP backends—including SAP-based Army systems, financial ledgers, Salesforce, ServiceNow, relational databases, message brokers, and transactional systems.
Explore and incorporate modern integration capabilities, including event-driven architectures, messaging services (Anypoint MQ, Kafka, JMS), and emerging AI-enabled integration and data capabilities.
Security, DevSecOps, & Infrastructure Operations
Design and implement gateway-enforced traffic and protection policies based on strict DoW and Army cybersecurity, identity management and security controls, including Oauth, mTLS, PKI/certificates, secrets management, and role-based access controls (RBAC).
Configure, automate, and maintain robust CI/CD deployment pipelines leveraging capabilities for gateway- and environment-specific configurations, policy and contract analysis, across the API management environment.
Support deployment configurations across CloudHub / CloudHub 2.0, Runtime Fabric (RTF), containerized environments (Docker, Kubernetes), on-premises systems, and cArmy/AWS GovCloud infrastructure.
Implement end-to-end observability, distributed logging, alerting, and telemetry using enterprise monitoring suites to ensure high availability, proactive troubleshooting, and root cause analysis.
Collaboration, Governance, & Technical Leadership
Develop and maintain comprehensive technical artifacts, including architectural blueprints, interface control documents (ICDs), API specifications, data flow diagrams, deployment runbooks, and platform governance standards.
Guide other Army programs requesting integration and testing services, defining best practices, onboarding criteria, and sandbox utilization protocols.
