Position Overview

Own the technical integration API data pipelines and enterprise data modeling for VECs software ecosystem. Acting as a true Solutions Architect and lead BI developer this role builds and maintains automated data flows between our core systems (Kantata/future ERP HubSpot ClickUp Rippling). You will bridge the gap between business logic and technical execution translating complex AEC financial structures into highly reliable self-healing automated workflows while owning the enterprise semantic model in Power BI.

Key Responsibilities

Rippling Integration & Enterprise Data Pipelines

• Lead the custom technical integration of Rippling (HRM) with downstream platforms. You will ensure that employee master data department mapping and effective-dated cost rates automatically sync from Rippling into Kantata (and eventually our new ERP) via API.
• Build and maintain integrations between HubSpot Kantata ClickUp and Slack using iPaaS tools (e.g. Azure Logic Apps Workato Celigo) or custom API scripts.
• Automate key business transitions such as triggering a Kantata project shell and a ClickUp workspace creation when a HubSpot deal is marked Closed-Won.

API Reliability & Serverless Infrastructure

• Develop custom native integrations using Python or deployed in serverless environments (e.g. AWS Lambda Google Cloud Functions) when pre-built iPaaS connectors are insufficient.
• Architect self-healing asynchronous integrations that handle REST API rate-limiting pagination and timeout issues.
• Own integration monitoring webhook maintenance and implement Dead Letter Queues so failed syncs are caught and resolved without data loss.

Data Modeling & Enterprise Analytics (Power BI)

• Design and maintain the enterprise data model and semantic layer in Power BI pulling financial truth from Kantata pipeline context from HubSpot and headcount/cost data from Rippling.
• Build and own executive-grade Power BI dashboards calculating utilization margin backlog and business development ROI.
• Ensure reporting trust by maintaining strict data definitions and preventing dashboard sprawl.

What This Role Is Not

• Identity & Access Management (IAM): You will not handle Rippling IT Administration (SSO/App provisioning) user account creation or endpoint device management; this is owned by the IT Ops Manager.
• Business Process Owner: You build the technical integration and data models; the Business Operations Manager and CTO decide the system-of-record policies and business rules.

Required Skills and Qualifications

• 47 years in integration engineering BI development backend engineering or data architecture.
• Analytics Mastery: VERY strong enterprise BI capabilities including deep expertise in Power BI DAX SQL and semantic data modeling.
• API & Infrastructure Mastery: Practical experience building and maintaining integrations (REST APIs webhooks OAuth 2.0) across systems like Kantata/Mavenlink HubSpot ClickUp and Rippling. Proficiency in Python/ and serverless deployments.
• iPaaS Expertise: Hands-on experience with enterprise iPaaS platforms (Workato Celigo Boomi or Azure Logic Apps).
• Soft Skills: Able to work collaboratively with non-technical stakeholders and translate technical API/data constraints into plain language.

What Success Looks Like (First 6 Months)

• Rippling integration with global HRM platforms.
• The HubSpot-to-ERP Closed-Won automation is fully mapped tested and live.
• Integration errors are caught by automated alerts and resolved quickly by you rather than being discovered by end-users.
• The foundational Power BI semantic model is live giving executives a single trusted pane of glass for utilization and backlog.

Work Environment: Remote with occasional travel as business needs require.

Compensation Range: $120000 $155000
