Integration Architecture Design

,

,

(as applicable)

• Establish reusable components (common mappings, error-handling frameworks, logging standards, correlation IDs).

3. Data Flow Design (HES ↔ MDMS ↔ SAP ↔ GIS)

• Design and validate end-to-end flows for:
• Interval and register reads

(bulk + incremental)

• Events/alarms

(tamper, outages, power quality)

• Device lifecycle

(install, replace, remove, firmware/config)

• Commands

(connect/disconnect, on-demand reads, parameter updates)

• Master data alignment

(premise/customer/meter-to-premise mapping)

• GIS topology and asset references

(feeder/transformer connectivity, spatial attributes)

• Define and ensure compliance with NFRs:
• Performance

(throughput, latency, peak handling)

• Scalability

(horizontal scaling, partitioning, batching strategy)

• Availability/DR

(HA design, RPO/RTO, failover behaviors)

• Security

(encryption, certs, OAuth/SAML as applicable, key rotation)

• Observability

(monitoring, alerting, audit logs, integration KPIs)

• Define

capacity sizing inputs

for integration layer: message volume/day, peak reads, file sizes, concurrent interfaces.

• Lead integration workshops with business/IT/vendors to finalize interface requirements and sequencing.
• Own the integration test strategy:
• SIT, end-to-end testing, performance testing, failover testing
• Test data preparation and reconciliation approach
• Support cutover planning, data migration and synchronization, rollback strategy.
• Provide L3 support guidance during hypercare for interface failures and performance issues.

• 12+ years

in integration architecture across enterprise platforms.

• Strong experience in

AMI/MDMS integrations

(EnergyIP preferred) or similar high-volume telemetry/data platforms.

• Strong hands-on architecture knowledge of:
• interface design, mapping, adapters, monitoring/error handling)
• integration patterns (data replication, interfaces, data services)
• API design

(REST/SOAP), message-based integration (JMS/Kafka-like concepts)

• Data formats:

, schema governance and versioning

• Experience in high-volume ingestion and processing:
• Batch tuning, incremental loads, partitioning, compression strategies
• Handling late/missing reads and estimation flags
• Integration security knowledge:
• TLS/mTLS

, certificates, OAuth2/token-based auth (where applicable), secure service accounts

• Proven ability to define integration standards, canonical models, and enforce governance.
• Strong knowledge of NFR engineering: performance, DR, monitoring, resiliency patterns.
• Experience leading cross-functional workshops and producing architecture artifacts.

• Bachelor’s degree in Engineering/Computer Science (Master’s preferred).
• Preferred certifications:
• TOGAF (or equivalent architecture certification)
• SAP PO/Integration certifications
• Cloud/Integration certifications (if relevant)
