Senior Integration & Automation Engineer

Rubrik Job Board is hiring a Senior Integration & Automation Engineer in Bangalore.

Responsibilities

• Own the API and integration architecture and strategy for assigned domains, defining API‑led patterns (Experience, Process, and System APIs), reference architectures, and standards for how systems integrate across the enterprise.

• Design, build, and evolve RESTful APIs that expose well‑designed resources and operations to internal and external consumers, with clear contracts, documentation, and SLAs.

• Lead implementation of integrations between SaaS and on‑prem applications (e.g., NetSuite, Workday, Salesforce, Snowflake, ServiceNow), Finance, HR, Security, and GTM platforms, ensuring solutions are scalable, secure, resilient, and observable.

• Create data integration strategies for high volumes of data in transit, optimizing for performance, reliability, and cost (e.g., streaming vs. batch, push vs. pull APIs, caching, backoff strategies).

• Define and enforce API governance, including:

• Provide technical leadership to integration and API engineers, including solutioning, design reviews, code reviews, and mentoring of junior and contract engineers.

• Implement and manage REST/SOAP APIs, webhooks, and messaging interfaces from conceptual design through development, performance testing, deployment, and lifecycle management via an API gateway or iPaaS (e.g., MuleSoft Anypoint Platform).

• Architect robust data integrations for both real‑time and scheduled (batch) workloads using APIs, messaging, sFTP, and file‑based exchanges (JSON, XML, CSV), with well‑defined contracts, SLAs, and monitoring.

• Define non‑functional requirements (NFRs) and SLAs for APIs and integrations—availability, latency, throughput, error budgets, RTO/RPO—and ensure designs and implementations meet or exceed them.

• Drive observability and reliability for APIs and integrations by standardizing logging, tracing, metrics, dashboards, and alerting, and by creating operational runbooks for incident response and post‑incident reviews.

AI & Intelligent Automation Responsibilities

• Identify and prioritize AI opportunities within API and integration flows (e.g., data enrichment, anomaly detection, routing, summarization, classification, intent extraction).

• Define safe and governed AI usage within APIs and integrations, including:

• Clear input/output contracts for AI services

• Guardrails (prompt design, validation, constraints)

• Handling of sensitive data (PII/financial/HR data) in prompts and responses

Skills

• Deep expertise in RESTful API design and implementation, including:

• Resource modeling, URI design, and standard HTTP methods

• API‑first/contract‑first design (RAML/OpenAPI)

• Pagination, filtering, sorting, and partial responses

• Versioning strategies (URL, header, content negotiation)

• Idempotency and robust error handling patterns.

• Strong experience building secure, resilient, and scalable APIs, including:

• API gateways (e.g., MuleSoft, Apigee, Kong, AWS API Gateway)

• Rate limiting, throttling, caching, and circuit‑breaker patterns

• Timeout, retry, and backoff strategies.

• Solid understanding of webhooks and event‑driven APIs, including subscription management, signature validation, replay protection, and idempotent consumers.

• Hands-on experience with API client development and integration patterns (SDKs, service‑to‑service communication, backend‑for‑frontend, composite APIs).

• Strong experience with MuleSoft Anypoint Platform (or equivalent iPaaS), including API Manager, Runtime Manager/CloudHub, Anypoint Exchange, and design/deployment best practices.

• Solid understanding of SOAP services, messaging patterns (pub/sub, event‑driven integrations), and when to apply each.

• Proficiency with integration data formats and transformation (JSON, XML, CSV, mapping, enrichment, aggregation, canonical models).

• Strong database and data modeling skills, including SQL and working with relational databases (e.g., Postgres, SQL Server, Oracle) in integration scenarios.
