AI is absorbing the most describable parts of a Java or .NET engineer's job. What does not automate is owning a system nobody else understands, and being the person a client trusts when it breaks.
We are hiring ONE engineer to own three live enterprise integrations for US and UK clients. You will be the only engineer on those accounts — building them, fixing them, and talking to the customer directly. No project manager in between.
THIS ROLE MOVES YOU ONTO SERVICENOW. YOU DO NOT NEED TO KNOW IT.
ServiceNow is a niche and has stayed one — demand has outstripped supply for years. At 8+ years it pays ₹15–35L in India, architects ₹40–70L. India has several hundred thousand Java engineers. It does not have several hundred thousand ServiceNow integration specialists, and that gap is what pays.
Training is self-directed. We give you the materials, a development instance, paid time to learn, and people who answer questions — but you work through it yourself. We do not run courses. If that is not how you learn, this will frustrate you.
WHAT YOU WILL DO
- Own three live client integrations end to end — code, incidents, and the client relationship.
- Build bidirectional integrations with partner APIs: queues, endpoints, scheduled sync, field transformation, and the data model mapping two systems that disagree.
- Design the failure paths — bounded retries, dead-lettering, duplicate detection, reconciliation, alerting that does not flood.
- Diagnose production incidents in systems you did not build, often from logs alone.
- Talk to clients directly — explain what broke, deliver bad news including when the fault is ours, and push back on what is not deliverable.
WHAT WE NEED
- 8–12 years building backend or integration software in an enterprise environment, with strong Java or C#.
- You have integrated with a third-party system you did not control — someone else's API, their release schedule, their outages. Be ready to talk about a specific one.
- You have handled an integration failing in production — duplicates, out-of-order messages, a retry that would not stop. Be ready to describe what you changed.
- REST and SOAP, JSON and XML, authentication patterns, and relational data modelling — you have designed a schema someone else had to live with.
- You have dealt with a client directly, including at least one conversation that went badly.
NICE TO HAVE
- Banking, capital markets or insurance — payments, core banking, regulatory reporting or reconciliation.
- Message queues, scheduled batch processing, or reconciliation between systems that disagree.
- A vendor platform with its own release model (Salesforce, Pega, SAP, Dynamics) or middleware tooling (MuleSoft, Boomi, TIBCO).
WHAT YOU GET
- Fixed annual bonus on completion of twelve months, on top of fixed pay.
- Certifications funded, with a development instance and the official learning environment.
- Fully remote in India, working UK business hours (1 PM–10 PM IST).
- Three accounts that are yours, and daily access to the founder — a ServiceNow architect who wrote the applications you would take over.
HOW WE HIRE A 30-minute AI screening interview you take at your own pace, then one or two video interviews, then a short practical build in an setting we provide. No puzzles at any stage.
AI assistance is not permitted during the screening interview.
