Associate Director, Enterprise Integration

The Associate Director of Enterprise Integration is a strategic and hands-on leader responsible for defining the integration vision, establishing governance, and delivering reliable, scalable, and secure integration capabilities across the enterprise. This role owns the integration platform and services as a product, sets design principles and leading practices, orchestrates work across application and corporate shared service teams, and ensures the portfolio delivers measurable business outcomes. They will inform technical and architecture strategy, stand up and qualify new technologies, and drive continuous improvement by reducing technical debt and standardizing work.

As an Associate Director, a typical day might include the following:

• Inform and define the technical and architecture strategy for enterprise integration (roadmaps, tools/technology selection, platforms, patterns, standards).
• Establish design principles and leading practices for APIs, architecture, data movement, orchestration, and security.
• Support standing up new technology and qualifying through proofs of concept, pilots, and vendor evaluations.
• Lead decisions on “which bus to get on” (e.g., ESB, event bus, streaming backbone) aligned to use cases and scalability goals.
• Create and maintain an Integration “Pattern” Decision Framework to guide synchronous vs. asynchronous, pub/sub vs. request/response, batch vs. streaming, ETL vs. ELT, and choreography vs. orchestration choices.
• Establish and run governance processes including intake, prioritization & work management; create and maintain Standard Work (SOPs, playbooks, runbooks, checklists) for design, build, test, deploy, and support.
• Maintain an authoritative Integration Catalog of APIs, events, integrations, schemas, SLAs, and ownership.
• Serve as Product Owner for the Integration Platform and shared integration services, defining vision, roadmap, backlog, and success metrics.
• Orchestrate work across application teams, corporate functions (security, compliance, finance), and programs to ensure alignment and remove blockers.
• Provide project management oversight across the integration portfolio: scope, timeline, budget, dependencies, risk management, and status reporting.
• Drive integration quality through design reviews, pattern adherence, testing standards, and observability.
• Identify, prioritize, and remediate integration technical debt (legacy patterns, brittle point-to-point, insufficient observability, poor documentation).
• Implement practices for reusability, versioning, deprecation, and lifecycle management of integrations.
• Own integration financials: annual budgeting, forecasting, vendor/software costs, cloud consumption, and chargeback models.
• Measure and communicate ROI, TCO, and value realization of integration investments.

This role may be for you if you have:

• Proven experience with integration platforms (iPaaS, ESB, API gateway, event streaming), such as IBM MQ, MuleSoft, Boomi, Azure Integration Services, Kafka/Confluent, AWS/GCP integration suites, or similar.
• Strong grasp of integration patterns (EDA, pub/sub, CQRS, SAGA, orchestration/choreography), data movement (ETL/ELT), and API lifecycle management; knowledge of integration platforms such as Oracle Integration Cloud (OIC), middleware, and APIs.
• Familiarity with enterprise architecture frameworks (e.g., TOGAF), agile at scale (e.g., SAFe), and ITIL service management practices.
• Solid understanding of security, compliance, privacy, identity, and data governance as they apply to integrations.
• Demonstrated success in establishing governance, standard work, and cross-functional orchestration with measurable outcomes.
• Familiarity of regulatory guidelines, including GxP compliance, Sox, and security.
• Expertise in Oracle SQL, PL/SQL, and reporting tools like Oracle BI Publisher and OTBI.
