Lead Integration Engineer

The Lead Integration Engineer is a hands-on engineering role responsible for designing and building system-to-system integrations, APIs, data pipelines, and vendor platform connectivity solutions.

The role focuses on API strategy, microservice architecture, middleware patterns, data integration, and scalable service design that support Wealth and Asset Management and portfolio management, e.g.

Addepar, client platforms, advisory tools, financial operations, and reporting workflows.

Lead an engineering workstream through system design, enhancements, integration delivery, testing, release planning, and production support transition.

Support and enhance systems in a highly regulated financial environment, including controls for data quality, privacy, security, auditability, and operational resilience.

Provide technical leadership for integrations that automate alternative investment document collection, data extraction, data normalization, downstream reporting, and operational workflows.

Advance Snowflake-centered data integration patterns, including secure data ingestion, transformation, sharing, consumption, governance, and integration with analytics and reporting platforms.

Lead technical design reviews, technical risk assessments, vendor design reviews, proof-of-concept evaluations, implementation sequencing, and change-management activities.

Ensure compliance with applicable financial, operational, data, security, and regulatory standards, including SOX, AML/KYC, SEC/FINRA expectations where relevant to platform scope.
