Journal Technologies is looking to solve the problem of integrating disparate enterprise SaaS platforms to improve the efficiency and functionality of their internal systems, ensuring seamless data sharing and governance across cloud environments.
Requirements
- Proven experience building custom API integrations between SaaS platforms (not just using prebuilt connectors).
- Strong understanding of RESTful APIs, event-driven design, and data exchange between systems.
- Familiarity with tools and concepts like: ETL workflows, REST APIs, JSON/XML, middleware, SQL databases and schema planning, Identity/auth (OAuth2, tokens, API key management)
- Ability to analyze and communicate data flow, ownership, and system boundaries.
- Comfortable using scripting tools (e.g., Python, Bash) for automation or transformation tasks.
- Experience designing integrations for cloud-hosted environments (AWS preferred).
- Experience with CIAM platforms (e.g., Okta, Auth0).
Responsibilities
- Lead the design and development of a comprehensive technical architecture that integrates the company’s business applications with operational applications
- Build automation workflows to support push/pull data processes across business systems
- Design, develop, and support custom integrations between SaaS platforms using REST APIs, webhooks, and secure token-based authentication.
- Evaluate when out-of-the-box connectors fall short and deliver custom ETL or API-based solutions instead.
- Define source-of-truth systems and build data synchronization logic that respects ownership, consistency, and governance requirements.
- Contribute to projects involving SQL schema planning for integrations, including redundancy, replication, or transformation between systems.
- Partner with CloudOps, Business Systems, and Security to ensure integrations align with AWS architecture, IAM roles, and compliance frameworks (e.g., SOC 2, CJIS).
Other
- Collaborate with executive-level stakeholders and the Project Manager to understand business objectives and translate them into a technical strategy.
- Work with internal stakeholders to understand business workflows and translate them into integration specs and data flow diagrams.
- Business Acumen: Understanding business processes and how different systems support them.
