The L3 Integration & Customisation Engineer (ICE 3) is a senior individual contributor within Exotels Professional Services team operating across the Integration & Customisation (ECC & Platform) and Chatbot & AI sub-departments. You will own end-to-end technical solution design for the most complex customer integrations custom microservices CRM/CTI adapters and advanced omnichannel/IVR flows while ensuring every deliverable is functionally accurate scalable and secure. Beyond your own build you set the technical execution baseline for the pod: mapping customer API boundaries upfront gatekeeping quality through peer code review and mentoring L1/L2 engineers. This role reports to the PS Manager and/or the relevant Pod Lead and collaborates directly with Architects on platform guardrails and complex architecture decisions.

• Write clean high-performance code for bespoke microservices custom CRM/CTI integrations and complex omnichannel/IVR routing node flows for enterprise clients.

• Author robust technical solution designs for complex builds; run direct technical syncs with engineering teams to map API boundaries authentication protocols rate limits and system prerequisites before coding begins.

• Own the end-to-end software engineering lifecycle on your builds: architecting/designing the system development testing and deployment.

• Instrument what you ship dashboards and monitoring for your integrations and own debugging of production issues/incidents on your builds through to resolution.

• Conduct mandatory code reviews design sign-offs and sanity validation for L1/L2 developers in the pod before their work is submitted for customer UAT eliminating defects and technical debt before they reach the client.

• Strictly follow and enforce peer compliance with SDLC gates git commit protocols security scanning static code analysis and release SOPs.

• Mentor L1 and L2 execution engineers to raise the teams technical baseline share domain expertise and resolve complex technical blockers.

• Drive daily personal and peer adoption of GenAI coding tools (automated unit-test generation prompt-driven coding) to reduce build effort.

• Contribute reusable configuration modules to the central repository.

• Must have 5 years of development experience with prior work delivering complex custom enterprise integrations ideally in SaaS CPaaS Contact Centre or Enterprise AI/Software environments.

• Track record of owning a technical build end-to-end (architecture through deployment and production support) not just executing pre-scoped tickets.

• Some exposure to direct customer/engineering-team technical syncs (API boundary discussions integration scoping) is a strong plus.

• Strong hands-on skill building custom microservices CRM/CTI adapters and API/webhook integrations.

• Must have Good knowledge and experience with full-stack frameworks such as used here for building customer-facing bot/IVR configuration UIs admin/agent-console screens and the backend APIs that power them.

• Must have Good programming knowledge in languages like PHP Go Python Java etc.

• Good to have Full-stack development experience building the web API backend that powers your frontend not just consuming APIs.

• Good to have Experience or interest in UX design and use of design tools for the configuration/admin interfaces built as part of customer solutions.

• Experience with RDBMS (MySQL Postgres etc.) and NoSQL (Elastic Redis Aerospike etc.) as used in integration/customization builds.

• Strong computer science fundamentals.

• Working knowledge of omnichannel/IVR routing logic and complex node-flow design.

• Comfortable with SDLC fundamentals: PR standards security scanning static code analysis and release management.

• Practical experience instrumenting services with dashboards/monitoring and debugging live production issues/incidents.

• Familiarity with GenAI-assisted coding tools and a mindset of using them to compress build/test time.

• Conversational AI/chatbot / NLP-LLM domain exposure is a plus given the Chatbot & AI sub-department scope but not required if integration/customization depth is strong.

• Comfortable reviewing others code and giving direct specific feedback that actually unblocks a junior engineer rather than just flagging issues.

• Able to hold a design or architecture position under questioning from a Principal Engineer or a customers technical team.

• Self-driven on process hygiene doesnt need to be chased on SDLC/git compliance.

• Excellent written and oral communication skills able to present complex technical ideas/concepts clearly and concisely and to keep customer and internal stakeholders updated on work/project progress.

• Prior peer-review or informal mentorship experience with L1/L2-equivalent engineers.

• Experience contributing reusable libraries/modules that other engineers adopted.

• Aptitude and interest in eventually taking on pod-lead-level ownership (KPI tracking SOP remediation cross-pod coordination) this is the natural next step into the Lead Integration & Customisation role.

• Day 30: Fully ramped on at least one live customer integration; shipping code that passes peer review with minimal rework; actively doing code reviews for at least one L1/L2 engineer.
• Day 60: Owns solution design (not just build) for a complex integration end-to-end including a direct technical sync with a customers engineering team; consistently meeting 95% first-time UAT success on own work.
• Day 90: Established as a go-to reviewer/mentor in the pod; demonstrable GenAI-tool-driven effort reduction on personal builds; has contributed at least one reusable module to the shared repository.
