About the role

  • Design, build, and maintain ES partner interfaces and internal data flows connecting EDB/IVM/VistA REE to the modernized ES.
  • Implement and govern API and message standards (REST/JSON, SOAP, Kafka/AMQP) including versioning, documentation, and backward compatibility.
  • Create integration patterns for synchronous and asynchronous processing, idempotency, retry/backoff, correlation IDs, and dead-letter handling.
  • Develop transformation and orchestration logic (e.g., Camel/Spring Integration/NiFi) to normalize legacy payloads and enforce contract schemas.
  • Collaborate with data teams on mapping, lineage, validation, and reconciliation to ensure end-to-end accuracy across enrollment workflows.
  • Embed integration testing into CI/CD (contract tests, consumer-driven tests, mock services) and automate environment configuration.
  • Instrument integrations for observability (Splunk/Azure Monitor), define interface SLOs, and publish runbooks and dashboards.
  • Engineer authentication and authorization across interfaces (OAuth2/OIDC, mutual TLS, API gateways); enforce least-privilege and secrets management.
  • Harden integrations to VA standards (FedRAMP, FISMA, IRS 1075, HIPAA) and align with Section 508 accessibility for user-facing endpoints.
  • Support incident response: triage, root-cause analysis, replay/compensation strategies, and postmortems for interface failures.
  • Optimize performance for high-volume eligibility and enrollment transactions, including schema/payload tuning and batching strategies.
  • Contribute to transition plans, cutover rehearsals, and partner onboarding; develop checklists and training for operations teams.

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree in computer science, engineering, or related technical discipline.
  • 6 years of integration engineering experience; 10 additional years may be substituted for education.
  • Hands-on expertise with API design and integration frameworks (Spring Boot, Apache Camel, MuleSoft, or NiFi).
  • Experience integrating Oracle-backed systems and legacy services; familiarity with EDB/IVM/VistA REE data flows is preferred.
  • Proficiency with messaging platforms (Kafka/RabbitMQ), schema registries, and event-driven architectures.
  • Strong understanding of security: OAuth2/OIDC, mTLS, JWT, secrets management, and zero-trust principles.
  • Experience with CI/CD pipelines and infrastructure-as-code for integration deployments.
  • Demonstrated use of observability tools (Splunk, Azure Monitor) and performance tuning for integrations.
  • Excellent documentation, stakeholder communication, and cross-functional collaboration skills.
  • Availability for sporadic after-hours escalation; adept at diagnosing issues under the DRE golden signals (latency, traffic, errors, saturation).
