Job Title: Enterprise MuleSoft Integration Engineer / Architect
Location: Ft. Belvoir, VA
Work Model: Onsite – onsite
Security Clearance: Secret clearance
Responsibilities
• Architect, design, build, and centrally manage an enterprise-grade, scalable MuleSoft platform and runtime architecture, avoiding siloed separate tenants and enabling cross-program resource sharing and governance.
• Establish and scale a centralized enterprise data hub and enterprise gateway to expose modular APIs and secure data services across Army logistics, financial ERPs, trading partners, and enterprise systems.
• Support multi-program enablement and testing workflows, architecting environment configurations to scale beyond single-instance constraints and support concurrent partner testing, validation, and sandbox work within government cloud environments.
• Lead the modernization of legacy point-to-point and batch integrations into modular, service-oriented, API-led connectivity layers (System, Process, and Experience APIs).
• Act as the hands-on technical lead to design, implement and administer API managers to include disparate instances, runtime environments, client applications, contracts, SLA Tiers, policy applications, versioning and lifecycle promotion.
• Design and maintain clear API specifications and interface agreements using RAML, OpenAPI, JSON, XML, WSDL, and modern interface definitions.
• Construct complex, high-performance data transformations and mappings using DataWeave across heterogeneous data formats (JSON, XML, CSV, flat files, and database records).
• Integrate core enterprise applications, authoritative data sources, and ERP backends—including SAP-based Army systems, financial ledgers, Salesforce, ServiceNow, relational databases, message brokers, and transactional systems.
• Explore and incorporate modern integration capabilities, including event-driven architectures, messaging services (Anypoint MQ, Kafka, JMS), and emerging AI-enabled integration and data capabilities.
• Design and implement gateway-enforced traffic and protection policies based on strict DoW and Army cybersecurity, identity management and security controls, including OAuth, mTLS, PKI/certificates, secrets management, and role-based access controls (RBAC).
• Configure, automate, and maintain robust CI/CD deployment pipelines leveraging capabilities for gateway- and environment-specific configurations, policy and contract analysis, across the API management environment.
• Support deployment configurations across CloudHub / CloudHub 2.0, Runtime Fabric (RTF), containerized environments (Docker, Kubernetes), on-premises systems, and cArmy/AWS GovCloud infrastructure.
• Implement end-to-end observability, distributed logging, alerting, and telemetry using enterprise monitoring suites to ensure high availability, proactive troubleshooting, and root cause analysis.
• Develop and maintain comprehensive technical artifacts, including architectural blueprints, interface control documents (ICDs), API specifications, data flow diagrams, deployment runbooks, and platform governance standards.
• Guide other Army programs requesting integration and testing services, defining best practices, onboarding criteria, and sandbox utilization protocols.
Requirements
• Active Secret security clearance.• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Information Systems, or a related technical discipline OR equivalent relevant professional experience.
• Must have a baseline certification (e.g., Security+ CE, CySA+, CISSP, or equivalent) or documented education and relevant computing environment certifications (e.g., MuleSoft Certified Integration Associate, AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner) or documented education aligned with DoD 8140 / 8570.01-M policies.
• 7+ years of professional software development and enterprise systems integration experience.
• 5+ years of direct, hands-on experience with the design and delivery of enterprise-scale API gateway and management implementations, serving multiple programs, tenants, environments, organizations.
• Experience transitioning isolated, single-dev/single-tenant MuleSoft environments into centrally managed, multi-program shared platforms with controlled sandboxes.
• Strong proficiency in managing and provisioning Infrastructure as Code (IaC) and automating the deployment, scaling, and management of containerized applications (e.g., Kubernetes).
• Strong proficiency with the development, execution, and governance of integration flows connecting on-premise and cloud-based processes, services, applications, and data.
• Strong proficiency in the integration of enterprise identity services using APIs to manage, synchronize, and authenticate identities across systems.
