Key Responsibilities –

Architecture & Design
Define target-state integration architecture for Earnix across quoting, rating, underwriting, billing, and renewal journeys, aligning to Hiscox reference architecture and security standards.
Select and govern architectural patterns (synchronous RESTful APIs, message/event streaming, bulk/batch, file-based), data contracts, and error-handling approaches that meet non-functional needs (latency, throughput, resiliency, observability).
Leverage pre-built accelerators/connectors (e.g., Earnix–Guidewire accelerator; Earnix–Sapiens IDITSuite connector) and evaluate build-vs-buy trade-offs for faster time-to-value. Incorporate industry integrations such as Verisk ISO ERC (commercial lines rating content) to improve speed-to-market and compliance in US lines.

Integration Development
Design, build, and secure APIs and services that exchange data between Earnix and core platforms (e.g., Guidewire PolicyCenter/Billing/Claim, or equivalent), including request/response mapping, orchestration, idempotency, and versioning.
Implement integration flows using enterprise iPaaS or integration frameworks (e.g., MuleSoft/Apache Camel), and enable CI/CD pipelines, automated testing, and release automation for integration assets.
Establish telemetry (logging, tracing, metrics) and SRE practices for production-grade reliability and performance at scale.

Program & Stakeholder Leadership
Partner with product owners, enterprise architects, security, and pricing/actuarial leaders to translate business objectives into architectural roadmaps and milestone plans.
Lead technical workshops and solution walkthroughs with delivery partners (e.g., Guidewire/Earnix/SaaS vendors), ensuring designs align to platform standards and best practices.
Provide technical leadership to developers; conduct design/code reviews and mentor teams on integration patterns, domain models, and platform capabilities.

Governance & Compliance
Define integration guardrails (naming standards, API versioning, schema governance, PII/PHI handling, auditability) to meet US regulatory and enterprise policy requirements.
Maintain architecture artifacts (context diagrams, sequence diagrams, interface catalogs, runbooks) and ensure alignment with Hiscox engineering governance and hiring/application processes.
