We are building a dedicated Integration Team — a focused effort to create a scalable, well-structured integration layer that connects our platform to a growing ecosystem of partners. This team will be fully responsible for all partner integrations, freeing our core product team to focus on product development. As the first engineering hire on this team, you will work closely with our Integration Lead to design, build, and own the integration infrastructure from the ground up. This is a senior, high-ownership role with a direct impact on how fast NorthLadder scales. This is a rare opportunity to design and own a greenfield integration layer at a high-growth company — not maintain someone else's. Your technical decisions will define how NorthLadder onboards every future partner. WHAT YOU WILL DO Integration Infrastructure
• Design and build a scalable, plugin-based integration layer that standardises how all partner integrations are built and maintained
• Define the patterns, interfaces, and configuration schemas that every future integration will follow
• Build and own the core components: inbound webhook handling, outbound API dispatch, real-time event notifications, and scheduled data export pipelines
• Migrate existing partner integrations out of core product services into the new integration layer — reading complex, unfamiliar code and extracting it cleanly Partner Integrations
• Design and implement integrations across a range of capability types including authentication (SSO), order lifecycle management, payments and financial flows, POS/voucher systems, data exports, and communications
• Handle the full integration lifecycle — inbound webhooks from partners, outbound API calls to partner systems,



real-time status notifications, and nightly data delivery
• Manage partner credentials, per-tenant configuration, and API versioning in a clean, secure, and maintainable way
• Debug and resolve integration issues across system boundaries, including async event flows and third-party API failures Technical Leadership
• Mentor and guide a mid-level integration engineer once they join the team
• Establish coding standards, testing practices, and operational runbooks for the integration team
• Own integration reliability — uptime monitoring, alerting, retry logic, and incident response for all partner integrations
• Collaborate with the core product team via a well-defined API contract — raising requests for new platform capabilities and managing versioning Must Have
• 5+ years of professional experience with TypeScript and Node.js in a production setting
• Has designed or significantly contributed to an integration layer, middleware platform, or event-driven system — not just consumed external APIs
• Deep expertise in webhook patterns: signature validation, idempotency, retry with exponential backoff, dead-letter queues, and partial failure handling
• Hands-on AWS experience in production — SQS, Lambda, and SSM Parameter Store at minimum
• Comfortable reading, understanding, and extracting logic from complex, unfamiliar codebases — a critical skill for the initial migration phase
• Strong understanding of asynchronous systems and how to debug failures across service and team boundaries
• Experience building for reliability — you think about what happens when things fail, not just the happy path. Interested candidates can share their profile at [email protected]
