About the Role:

Our client is looking for an experienced Integration Architect to join a growing Technology team at a large, well-established Australian retail organisation currently undergoing a major enterprise systems transformation.

This is a genuine opportunity to shape how a large-scale business shares and moves data across its ecosystem. You'll design and document robust, scalable integration solutions that support a major data transition program working across batch and near-real-time integration patterns, and partnering closely with architects, delivery teams, and business stakeholders to bring designs to life.

If you're a hands-on architect who enjoys solving complex integration challenges, influencing technical direction, and communicating confidently across both technical and non-technical audiences, we'd love to hear from you.

What You'll Be Doing
  • Designing and documenting data-sharing integration solutions, with a focus on large-volume data transfers
  • Building scalable, resilient integration pipelines using both batch and near-real-time patterns
  • Making critical architectural decisions, weighing up trade-offs across performance, cost, and complexity
  • Embedding security, compliance, and best-practice standards into every design
  • Producing high-quality documentation — conceptual models, solution overviews, interface maps, and decision records
  • Contributing to design libraries and architecture playbooks to support reusability across the business
  • Supporting non-functional requirements such as availability, reliability, and response times
  • Collaborating with internal teams and external vendors/technology partners, and presenting complex designs clearly to varied audiences
What We're Looking For
Essential:
  • Proven experience architecting and working with data integration tools (e.g. Informatica or similar platforms)
  • Strong understanding of data-sharing integration patterns, particularly for high-volume data
  • Experience designing solutions across integration methods such as File Share, API, AMQP, Kafka, and Webhooks
  • Exposure to supporting toolsets such as API Management, streaming, and storage
  • Ideally, hands-on experience building integration pipelines
  • Solid grounding in infrastructure and networking fundamentals
  • Excellent stakeholder management, communication, and presentation skills
  • A collaborative, critical-thinking approach, able to translate business requirements into technical solutions
Desirable:
  • Experience working in agile, product-led delivery environments
  • Familiarity with architecture modelling tools (e.g. Ardoq)
Why Apply
  • Join a large-scale, high-visibility transformation program
  • Work alongside a broad architecture community (Enterprise, Data, Application, Infrastructure and Integration Architects)
  • Genuine influence over integration strategy and design standards
