Develop and maintain API integrations using API management and gateway concepts, including OAuth 2.0 authentication, rate limiting, response caching, and OpenAPI 3.x specifications. Design and implement Change Data Capture (CDC) and event-streaming solutions using technologies such as Kafka, Amazon SQS, or native IDMC capabilities. Develop and optimize SQL queries and data integration processes involving BigQuery or comparable cloud data warehouse platforms. Provide technical leadership and architectural guidance throughout integration delivery, ensuring solutions meet functional, performance, security, and scalability requirements. Support integration reliability through appropriate data validation, reconciliation, error handling, and message replay mechanisms. Collaborate with technical stakeholders to ensure implementation aligns with established architecture decisions and integration standards.
