Integration Engineer

Integration Engineer (C# / Azure Integration Services)

£55k–£70k · Permanent · Remote‐first

The Challenge

DigX is mid‐flight on a major digital transformation programme. You’ll be the technical hands behind proofs‐of‐concept, feasibility validation, and buildability feedback — working across Azure Integration Services and modern integration patterns to prove that designs work before the programme commits to them. Where they don’t, you’ll flag why and propose what works better.

Your job is to find problems early, recommend stronger approaches, and make sure the programme builds on proven ground — not assumptions. On a transformation this size, that matters.

This is a permanent role. You’re joining during design validation and staying through build, test, and into live operations. We’re not hiring you for a phase — we’re hiring you for the programme.

What You’ll Own

• Build C# integration components (Azure Functions / custom APIs / services) that form the programme’s integration layer.
• Deliver proofs‐of‐concept and technical spikes to validate integration designs early and prevent bad decisions reaching build.
• Implement resilient integration behaviour: validation, transformation, orchestration, error handling, retries, and idempotency.
• Integrate using API‐led and event‐driven patterns (API Management, Service Bus, Functions, Logic Apps where appropriate).
• Create test harnesses, mocks, and stubs to validate designs without waiting on full environments.
• Provide clear engineering feedback: risks, constraints (e.g., throttling/limits), trade‐offs, plus practical build notes and documentation.

You’ll Thrive Here If...

• You’re a strong C# engineer who has built real integration services — not just wired up connectors
• You’ve worked hands‐on with Azure Integration Services (Functions, Service Bus, API Management, Logic Apps) and can stand something up quickly to test a theory
• You understand REST APIs, authentication flows, JSON/XML payloads, and the plumbing that sits between systems
• You can pick up an unfamiliar pattern, prototype it fast, and come back with a clear answer on whether it works and what the trade‐offs are
• When something breaks, you don’t guess — you methodically trace the problem until you find it
• You use Git properly and care about clean commits, sensible branching, and code that someone else can pick up

Bonus points if you also bring:

• Exposure to MES, WMS, EDI, or manufacturing/operational system integrations
• Experience working in design or discovery phases — not just steady‐state build
• Background in enterprise or regulated environments with formal SDLC expectations
• Microsoft certifications: AZ‐204, MB‐300, MB‐700

Why This Role Matters

• Shape what gets built: Your technical verdict directly influences which integration approaches go forward and which get redesigned. You’re not downstream of decisions — you’re part of making them.
• Solve problems, not tickets: Build POCs, stress‐test assumptions, and prove approaches in a role that rewards curiosity and technical rigour over throughput.
• Remote‐first, on‐site when it counts: Work remotely by default, with time in Stafford or at client locations only when being in the same room genuinely makes things better.
• Stay for the whole journey: Join during design validation, grow through build and test, and be part of the team that takes it live. This isn’t a phase hire.
• Engineering‐led culture: Clear standards, direct communication, and zero corporate theatre. Just good engineering that works.
