As an Integration Lead , you will make an impact by owning the integration architecture, delivery and run of approximately 45–55 interfaces connecting nCino, Brilliance and Taktile / Experian with the retained Pega, Java, Siebel.. You will be a valued member of the programme team and work collaboratively with the Programme Technical / Architecture Lead, a squad of integration developers, cross-vendor partners and the Design Authority governance board.

In this role, you will:

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.

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.
