API Governance
- MuleSoft Governance Tools: Out-of-the-box governance tools are unavailable; the existing tool is expensive and not possessed by the team.
- Mitigation Strategy: Utilization of custom scripts and automation to enforce governing rules across all APIs, ensuring adherence to standards and preventing low-quality entries in the API catalog.
- Standards Enforced:
- Use of internal identifiers like mods IDin ServiceNow to uniquely identify each application.
- Ensuring API ownership and maintaining distribution lists for accountability and communication.
Hiring Needs and Challenges
- Role Requirements:
- Seeking a senior developer with extensive experience in MuleSoft or Python APIs.
- Preferred candidates should have at least eight years of overall experience, with the latter four years focused on MuleSoft or enterprise Java development.
- Emphasis on candidates with a strong background in enterprise-level software development, particularly in Java, due to the prevalence of legacy Java applications.
- Candidate Expectations:
- Avoidance of Entry Level Candidates due to MuleSoft s low-code nature requiring more configuration than coding.
- Experience with Java 8 and Java 17, containerization (RTF), on-premise and cloud deployments, and API governance and security is highly desirable.
- Market Challenges:
- High experience level expectations are leading to rate constraints, as senior developers (8+ years) command higher salaries that exceed the company s budget.
- General market trend indicates increasing rates for MuleSoft developers, making it difficult to find candidates within the desired rate range.
