The Enterprise Integration Engineer is responsible for designing, developing, implementing, and supporting integration solutions across Simplot's enterprise application landscape. This position requires a practical integration mindset. The successful candidate will evaluate business requirements, vendor-recommended integration methods, security requirements, reusability, cost, supportability, and speed to market when recommending solutions. Simplot's integration strategy emphasizes using the desired integration method provided by the application vendor and leveraging native capabilities when appropriate.

This role reports onsite at Simplot HQ in Boise, ID.

Solution Development and Support Responsibilities

• Design, develop, test, deploy, and support enterprise integrations across cloud, on-premise, and hybrid application environments.
• Develop and support REST APIs, SQL-based integrations, data transformations, file-based integrations, and application-to-application integrations.
• Working with other Application Engineers, utilize vendor-native integration capabilities where appropriate, including SAP Integration Suite (CPI), JDE Orchestrator, and other application-specific tools.
• Develop and support MuleSoft Anypoint integrations when native tooling does not exist or is not desirable.
• Follow design principles and practices while ensuring solutions remain practical, supportable, and cost-effective.
• Evaluate integration approaches based on speed to market, maintainability, cost, scalability, and supportability.
• Build reusable integration components, templates, and patterns that accelerate future delivery.
• Collaborate with application teams, business analysts, engineers, platform teams, and vendors.
• Support production integrations, incident resolution, monitoring, and root cause analysis.

Integration Modernization & Optimization Responsibilities

• Assess existing integrations and identify opportunities to improve reliability, maintainability, observability, and operational support.
• Refactor, redesign, or modernize integrations that are difficult to troubleshoot, monitor, support, or extend.
• Reduce technical debt by eliminating unnecessary complexity, undocumented customizations, and fragile point-to-point integrations.
• Improve integration resilience through standardized error handling, logging, monitoring, alerting, retry mechanisms, and support procedures.
• Partner with application teams to transition legacy integrations toward reusable APIs, event-driven patterns, or vendor-supported approaches where appropriate.
• Establish and promote integration standards that improve supportability, reduce operational risk, and enable efficient knowledge transfer across teams.
