IBM Australia is seeking an experienced Integration Architect to design and deliver enterprise‑scale integration solutions on AWS, supporting major transformation, cloud migration and platform modernisation programs across asset‑intensive and regulated industries.
Role Overview
As an Integration Architect, you will lead the architecture, design and delivery of enterprise integration solutions across cloud, hybrid and on‑premise environments. Your focus will be on enabling secure, scalable, API‑led and event‑driven integration between enterprise platforms, cloud‑native applications, SaaS products and operational systems.
You will work across AWS cloud environments, supporting integrations involving ERP, asset management platforms, GIS, IoT/telemetry systems, data platforms and external partners. The role operates at both a strategic architecture and hands‑on delivery level, contributing to national‑scale public and private sector programs.

+ Data lakes, analytics and reporting solutions
o Enable secure external integrations with partners, vendors and third‑party services
o Support legacy‑to‑modern integration scenarios during cloud migration and application modernisation programs
* Cloud Migration, Modernisation & Enablement
o Support enterprise migration programs by defining integration architectures for re‑host, re‑platform and re‑architect initiatives
o Simplify and modernise integration landscapes using cloud‑native patterns
o Establish CI/CD pipelines for integration workloads, enabling automated build, test and deployment
o Embed DevSecOps practices across integration solutions
o Drive observability, logging and operational health across integration platforms
* Governance, Security & Standards
o Define integration governance frameworks, standards and design guardrails
o Ensure alignment with enterprise security, IAM, data protection and regulatory requirements
o Apply best practices for credential management, encryption and secrets management
o Support compliance, audit and operational readiness for integration solutions
