• EDI Modernization: Lead migration from legacy EDI platforms by designing the target architecture and executing critical parts of the redevelopment, including conversion of existing maps and integrations into Boomi.

• EDI Backlog Management: Partner with business and IT teams to prioritize initiatives and ensure delivery through a combination of architectural guidance and direct contribution to implementation efforts.

• Data Security and Compliance: Design and implement secure integration solutions, ensuring data protection, compliance, and auditability are embedded within developed integrations.

• Process Optimization: Define and implement standardized onboarding frameworks, reusable templates, and integration patterns, and build the core assets required to enable faster future implementations.

• Reporting and analytics: Design and implement monitoring, logging, and reporting frameworks in Boomi to provide visibility into integration performance and transaction health.

• Troubleshooting: Lead complex issue resolution and actively participate in debugging and optimizing integrations, including root cause analysis and implementation of fixes.

Minimum Requirements:

• Bachelor’s degree from an accredited four-year college or university in related field.

• 10+ years of experience in EDI.

• 5+ years of experience designing and developing integrations using Boomi or similar iPaaS platforms, including hands-on implementation in production environments.

• Experience leading end-to-end integration delivery, including design, development, testing, and deployment.

• Technical Proficiency:

  • Strong understanding of EDI standards (EDIFACT, X12) and protocols (AS2, FTP).

  • Deep expertise in:

    • Boomi architecture and development

    • Integration design patterns and reusable frameworks

    • EDI mapping, transformation, and validation

  • Hands-on experience with:

    • Building and deploying integrations

    • Debugging and optimizing integration processes

    • Implementing logging, monitoring, and error handling

  • Experience with legacy EDI platforms (Gentran, Cleo, SPS, B2Bi), including migration and redevelopment of integrations.

  • Knowledge of data formats (XML, JSON) and scripting for advanced transformations.

• Soft Skills:

  • Strong architectural thinking combined with a practical, hands-on approach to solution delivery.

  • Ability to balance strategic design with execution responsibility.

  • Excellent collaboration skills across business and technical teams.

  • Strong ownership mindset with accountability for delivery of working solutions.
