Technical Integrator

Are you a strategic technical powerhouse who thrives on connecting complex systems, aligning stakeholders, and delivering flawless integrations that power enterprise transformation? This is your moment to step into a high-impact role where your expertise in integration planning, risk management, and seamless delivery will directly shape mission-critical outcomes. Join a fast-paced environment where precision meets innovation – and make technology work smarter, faster, and more reliably than ever before!

Key Outcomes (What success looks like)

• Integration scope, dependencies, and technical approach are defined, agreed, and signed off.
  
• Solution design and delivery are aligned with enterprise architecture standards and non-functional requirements (security, scalability, performance).
  
• Delivery risks/issues are proactively identified, tracked, escalated, and resolved with stakeholder alignment.
  
• Testing, cutover, and go-live activities are coordinated and executed with minimal disruption.
  
• Complete handover documentation is delivered, and operational readiness is achieved (support model, runbooks, knowledge transfer).
  

Key Responsibilities (Core accountabilities)

• Scope & requirements alignment: Ensure client needs are accurately captured, translated into technical scope, and formally signed off.
  
• Integration planning & coordination: Build and manage the integration workstream plan, milestones, dependencies, resources, and schedules.
  
• Stakeholder management: Work closely with Customer PM, Enterprise Architecture, technical leads, and vendors to drive decisions and maintain alignment.
  
• Technical oversight: Coordinate system/interface design alignment; ensure integration standards and design principles are applied.
  
• Vendor & Partner Management: Manage delivery inputs from vendors/development partners and confirm solutions fit the agreed integration approach.
  
• Quality assurance: Ensure test plans, environments, and evidence support readiness; coordinate defect triage and resolution.
  
• Risk, issue & change control: Perform impact assessments; manage deviations against plan; support formal change processes and governance reporting.
  
• Cutover & transition: Coordinate cutover planning, rollback approach, hypercare, and operational handover.
  
• Documentation: Ensure complete, accurate technical documentation (integration specs, configurations, runbooks) is produced and maintained.
  

Key Activities (Typical tasks)

• Contribute to an integration roadmap for the project and define sequencing to minimise disruption.
  
• Facilitate technical workshops and lead cross-team integration working sessions.
  
• Track progress against milestones and provide clear status updates (RAID, dependencies, decisions).
  
• Support troubleshooting of integration incidents during test and deployment phases.
  
• Ensure training/enablement needs are identified and arranged where required.
  

Stakeholders & Interfaces

• Customer Project Manager (internal and customer-facing)
  
• Enterprise Architecture / Solution Architecture
  
• Development teams, Systems Engineers, QA/Test team
  
• Security, Infrastructure, Operations/Support
  
• Business Analysts and business stakeholders
  
• Vendors and development partners
  

Minimum Requirements (Must-have)

• A relevant tertiary qualification at a minimum NQF Level 6 (National Diploma) in Engineering, Information Sciences, or Project Management.
  
• 2–4 years’ experience in technical integration (or equivalent experience in a large enterprise environment).
  
• 3+ years of exposure to enterprise software delivery projects (SDLC).
  
• Project management certification (e.g., PMP/PRINCE2/AgilePM or equivalent).
  
• Intermediate proficiency in MS Project (or similar) and MS Office.
  
• Solid understanding of software design principles and system integration concepts.
  

Skills & Knowledge

• Project administration fundamentals (scope, schedule, cost, quality, RAID, reporting).
  
• Ability to perform schedule and dependency impact analysis and scenario-based planning.
  
• Working knowledge of SDLC delivery controls (requirements to release).
  
• Strong facilitation, stakeholder communication, and escalation management.
  
• Problem-solving under pressure; able to ask structured, diagnostic questions to resolve issues.
  

Preferred / Advantageous (Nice-to-have)

• Experience working in highly governed/regulated environments.
  
• Exposure to enterprise integration platforms/tools used in Interfront Environment: MS Project, Octane Defect System, Enterprise Service Bus Log and Jira
  
• Exposure to Agile delivery methods (Scrum/Kanban) in addition to formal governance.
