TECHNICAL ENVIRONMENT * Microsoft Azure (API Management, Service Bus, Functions, Azure Container Apps), Infrastructure as Code (Terraform/Bicep). * SAP S/4HANA, SAP BTP (Integration Suite, Event Mesh), Salesforce Core & Data Clouds. * RESTful/Event-driven APIs, OpenAPI/AsyncAPI, OAuth2/JWT, Service Catalogs. * Microservices, Side-by-side extensions, BFF patterns, Serverless. * Distributed tracing, structured logging (Azure Monitor/Log Analytics), and metrics across service boundaries. Please note: Applications must be submitted in English. ## Description * Strategic Assessment: Analyze the current integration landscape across SAP, Salesforce, and Azure backends to identify clean core violations and extraction opportunities. * API Standards & Lifecycle: Establish and refine Canyon's API design standards, including contract-first development, versioning, naming conventions, and lifecycle management. * Architecture Design: Create reference architectures for side-by-side extensions on SAP BTP, event-driven integrations from Salesforce, and Azure-based Backend-for-Frontend (BFF) layers for our native mobile applications. * Decision Framework: Define the criteria that help teams determine whether a requirement belongs in the platform core or an Azure microservice (focusing on reusability and upgradability). * Migration Leadership: Drive the "extract when you touch" approach, helping teams plan the migration of existing platform customizations into modern Azure-hosted services. * Governance & Review: Own the architecture review process as an enforcement mechanism for the mandate, ensuring each service is a well-defined product with a clear API contract. * Ecosystem Synergy: Collaborate with Platform Engineering to shape microservice boilerplates, CI/CD templates, and Azure API Management configurations. * Discoverability: Drive API governance by ensuring every service and its contract is registered in the Canyon service catalog with clear ownership and documentation. ## Related Videos - [Back(end) to the Future: Embracing the continuous Evolution of Infrastructure and Code](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/440-back-end-to-the-future-embracing-the-continuous-evolution-of-infrastructure-and-code) - [Next Level Enterprise Architecture: Modular, Flexible, Scalable, Multichannel and AI-Ready?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1017-next-level-enterprise-architecture-modular-flexible-scalable-multichannel-and-ai-ready) - [Putting the Graph In GraphQL With The Neo4j GraphQL Library](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/257-putting-the-graph-in-graphql-with-the-neo4j-graphql-library) - [Keeping applications secure by evolving OAuth 2.0 and OpenID Connect](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100152-keeping-applications-secure-by-evolving-oauth-2-0-and-openid-connect) - [Why make use of an integration platform in today's software developments and infrastructure?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/758-why-make-use-of-an-integration-platform-in-today-s-software-developments-and-infrastructure) - [GraphQL + Apollo + Next.js: A Lovely Trio](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/311-graphql-apollo-next-js-a-lovely-trio) ## Related Articles - [Where To Find Software Engineering Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/396-where-to-find-software-engineering-jobs) - [The 12 Best Jobs for Software Engineers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/401-the-12-best-jobs-for-software-engineers) - [Top-Paying Tech Jobs (with Salaries)](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/372-top-paying-tech-jobs-with-salaries) - [Fully Remote Software Engineer Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/447-fully-remote-software-engineer-jobs) - [Is Software Engineering Over-Saturated?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/418-is-software-engineering-over-saturated) - [Where to Find Entry-Level Software Engineering Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/397-where-to-find-entry-level-software-engineering-jobs)
