The Role

We are seeking a highly skilled, hands-on Technical Team Lead to design, build, and lead the development of a next-generation integration platform. This platform will harness artificial intelligence and iPaaS (Integration Platform as a Service) solutions to establish robust, bi-directional interfaces with external systems, including accounting, eCommerce, and shipping platforms.
You will lead a small, high-impact engineering team, balancing technical leadership with active coding responsibilities. Your mission is to architect, develop, and deliver a scalable, secure, and intelligent integration ecosystem that streamlines data exchange and enhances business processes across our warehouse management, manufacturing, and ecommerce solutions.

Key Responsibilities

•  Design and architect an AI-enabled integration platform leveraging iPaaS solutions.
•  Lead the implementation of bi-directional interfaces to connect with external accounting, eCommerce, and shipping systems (e.g., QuickBooks, Xero, NetSuite, Shopify, ShipStation).
•  Develop scalable, maintainable, and testable code, while guiding the team with best practices and modern design patterns.
•  Evaluate, integrate, and manage third-party APIs and data sources.
•  Collaborate with product stakeholders to define integration requirements, priorities, and technical roadmaps.
•  Mentor and coach team members, conducting regular code reviews and fostering a culture of engineering excellence.
•  Ensure performance, security, observability and compliance of the integration platform.
•  Stay up to date with AI trends, iPaaS capabilities, and emerging integration technologies to continuously improve the solution.
•  Build and maintain dynamic, event-driven workflows that power integrations and business processes across external systems.
•  Leverage workflow orchestration technologies such as Temporal, Apache Airflow, or N8N (Nodemation) to model, execute, and monitor long-running, distributed workflows.
•  Design platform features that support dynamic and configurable workflows—enabling customization and reuse across customers or integration types.
•  Coordinate with QA, DevOps, and support teams to drive successful releases.

Qualifications

•  Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field (or equivalent experience).
•  7+ years of professional software engineering experience, with 2+ years in a team lead or technical leadership role.
•  Strong hands-on Java skills.
•  Proven experience building integration platforms, API-driven architectures, or middleware solutions.
•  Familiarity with iPaaS platforms (e.g., MuleSoft, Boomi, Tray.io) and AI/ML concepts applied to data transformation and mapping.
•  Experience building and managing workflows using orchestration frameworks like Temporal, Apache Airflow, or N8N, including task definition, retries, and error handling is a plus.
•  Familiarity with creating dynamic or user-configurable workflows that can be persisted, resumed, and audited in a production SaaS environment is a strong plus.
•  Experience working with accounting, eCommerce, and shipping systems and their APIs is highly desirable.
•  Strong understanding of cloud-native architectures (AWS), microservices, and event-driven patterns.
•  Excellent problem-solving, organizational, and communication skills.
•  A collaborative mindset with a passion for mentoring and empowering others.

Why You’ll Love This Role

•  Opportunity to lead and build a cutting-edge integration platform from the ground up
•  High visibility and impact across the business
•  Collaborative, innovative culture with a focus on engineering excellence
•  Competitive salary, benefits, and professional growth opportunities

Benefits

•  Multiple healthcare options to choose from including PPO and HDHP with matching company contributions to an employee’s HSA account
•  Paid parental leave
•  401K matching
•  On-site gym, company paid lunches, fully stocked snack bins and refrigerators in the office (anyone want a Monster to drink?)

•  and much more
