What You Will Be Doing:
- Own the end-to-end technical implementation of Data Intelligence and complex integration projects (moving beyond standard identity checks into online banking, penny drops, e-signatures, and high-revenue modules).
- Assess global third-party vendors (identity, KYC/non-doc verification, local databases), review REST API documentation, test endpoints in Postman, and map data structures to ensure optimal engineering execution.
- Translate high-level business goals from Product Managers into robust technical specifications and PRDs—pushing back and challenging assumptions to guarantee seamless, scalable integration architectures.
- Define, prioritize, and write granular technical tasks for a dedicated team of 5–8 developers and infrastructure engineers, aligning implementation timelines and roadmap priorities with Product Managers.
- Ensure effective delivery across all project phases (technical assessment, specs, engineering handoffs) while creating and maintaining high-quality internal and external technical documentation.
- Perform functional and integration acceptance testing on new vendor connections to minimize review loops and maintain high standards across global product rollouts.
- Ensure operational and UI/UX consistency across Data Intelligence products, using stakeholder feedback and monitoring metrics to identify and design product optimizations.
- Act as the primary technical contact for internal stakeholders, clients, and operations teams to diagnose, troubleshoot, and resolve integration issues across international markets.
About You:
- Strong understanding of REST APIs, HTTP, JSON, webhooks, authentication methods, and API integration patterns.
- Ability to independently analyze third-party API documentation, identify limitations and edge cases, and design integration flows.
- Experience with API testing and debugging tools such as Postman, Swagger/OpenAPI, or similar.
- Ability to work with logs and monitoring/analytics tools such as Kibana and Superset or similar to investigate issues, validate product behavior, and analyze integration performance.
- Basic understanding of databases and SQL sufficient for data investigation and validation.
- Understanding of synchronous and asynchronous architectures, error handling, retries, timeouts, callbacks/webhooks, and basic integration reliability concepts.
- Ability to translate product requirements into detailed technical specifications, including field/response/error mappings, validation rules, edge cases, and acceptance criteria.
- Ability to translate business and customer requirements into technical product solutions while considering existing platform capabilities and architectural constraints.
- Ability to identify product gaps and improvement opportunities based on stakeholder feedback, production data, support cases, and recurring integration issues.
- Strong understanding of product lifecycle from discovery and solution design through Engineering implementation, QA, release, and post-release monitoring.
- Ability to evaluate trade-offs between customer requirements, implementation complexity, scalability, consistency, and long-term product maintainability.
