At Green Irony, we exist to turn AI into Actual Intelligence—accelerating outcomes and proving that complexity is optional. We hire people who automate first, ask permission never, and treat ownership as a default setting. If you’d rather govern yourself than be governed by layers of project managers, welcome home.
As a MuleSoft Architect you’ll own the integration platform and outcomes for our clients. You’ll stand up a production-ready API-led foundation, run an AI-first delivery program, design KPI-moving integrations, codify reusable standards, and lead Sales partnerships on discovery, solutioning and SOWs.
Location: Remote (US). Raleigh–Durham is a plus, not required.
Eligibility: Must live in the US and be authorized to work in the US; no sponsorship.
Key ResponsibilitiesArchitecture & Platform- Design API-led target state (system/process/experience), NFRs, and governance.
- Stand up CH2.0/RTF environments, networking, secrets, and promotion paths.
- Publish templates/policies/error strategies in Exchange that teams actually use.
- Author a lightweight AI playbook + prompt/snippet library to speed design/mapping/testing—safely.
- Measure before/after cycle-time and quality deltas; coach teams to adopt.
- Guide CI/CD, config per env, zero-downtime/rollback strategies.
- Define SLOs/alerts/dashboards; ensure integrations hit latency/accuracy targets.
- Plan → Ship: Define milestones/scope/LOE, run a lightweight cadence (checkpoints/RAID), manage change against SOW, and deliver predictably.
- Forecast & Communicate: Keep estimate variance ≤ ±15% with clear assumptions and exec-ready weekly updates (options/tradeoffs, risks, decisions).
- Own discovery, solution architecture, LOE/SOW with clear assumptions.
- Translate architecture into value narratives and reusable presales assets.
- Write crisp ADRs, API docs, runbooks; make decisions legible and repeatable.
- Previous Architecture Experience (Required) — 1+ year in a formal MuleSoft Architect role owning target state, decisions, and trade-offs (beyond senior development duties).
- API & Integration Architecture — Expert in API-led design on Mule 4/Anypoint with clean system/process/experience boundaries.
- AI/LLM Tools & Automation — Uses LLM assistants/test/data generators/static analysis to accelerate design/mapping/testing while protecting IP/data.

- DevOps, CI/CD & IaC — Azure DevOps/GitHub Actions/Jenkins, Maven, Terraform; env promotion to CH2.0/RTF; blue/green + rollback.
- Security & Standards — RAML/OAS, OAuth2/OIDC, JWT, mTLS/TLS, secrets, encryption; policy bundles baked into delivery.
- Observability & SLOs — Logs/metrics/traces with Anypoint Monitoring, Datadog/Splunk; error budgets and actionable alerts.
- Cloud & Networking — AWS/Azure VPC/VPN, private spaces, NAT/DNS/certs; cost/perf trade-offs for CH2.0/RTF.
- Messaging & Eventing — Pragmatic Anypoint MQ/Kafka with idempotency, DLQs, and backoff.
- Programming Proficiency — Strong Java/Node.js to review, refactor, and contribute; insists on clean, testable services.
- Client-Facing Consulting Experience — Worked at a consultancy/SI directly with customers: runs discovery, aligns stakeholders, presents solution options, contributes to LOE/SOW; keeps estimate variance ≤ ±15% and communicates crisply to execs.
- MuleSoft Certifications — MuleSoft Certified Platform Architect and/or MuleSoft Certified Integration Architect.
- Presales & SOWs — Leads discovery, shapes solution options, models LOE, and writes SOWs with ≤ ±15% variance.
- AI Acceleration (Hands-On) — Uses LLM tools to speed design/mapping/testing; shows before/after gains without needing a formal playbook.
- Security & Governance Depth — Policy-as-code mindset; OAuth2/OIDC, mTLS, secrets, and auditable standards that teams actually follow.
