Integration Lead

Define and own the end-to-end integration architecture and strategy on MuleSoft (API-led connectivity - system, process and experience APIs - and event-driven patterns). Establish reusable integration patterns, standards and a canonical data model, aligned with Rabobank enterprise architecture and governed by the Design Authority. Lead solution design and delivery for approximately 45-55 integrations across internal (core banking, CRM / Siebel, risk, pricing, data) and external platforms. Provide technical leadership, design and code reviews, and mentoring to integration developers. Own non-functional requirements: scalability, resilience, performance, security (OAuth2, mTLS, tokenisation), observability and error handling. Manage cross-vendor dependencies and technical alignment across the SI, Deloitte (implementation partner), nCino, Brilliance and Taktile / Experian. Drive DevOps maturity - CI/CD pipelines, automated testing, version control and release management for integration assets. Support data readiness, migration orchestration and reconciliation across the current and target landscapes. Plan and estimate integration work within an Agile / SAFe model; manage backlog, risks, issues and quality. Establish the integration run and support model, ensuring a smooth transition from build into a stable, maintainable operation. Report progress, risks and key technical decisions to programme leadership and architecture governance.
