Job Profile Summary

Architecture solves big complex challenges with our data and technology expertise to help bp advance a lower carbon future. We collaboratively work together to meet our customers’ needs. Architects connect and integrate all the digital disciplines and the consumers and procurers of technology, to create an integrated, flexible, effective digital architecture for bp.

BP is seeking an experienced and passionate Principal Enterprise Integration Architect to lead our organization's integration strategy and road map activities across various platforms,

The role of the Principal Enterprise Integration Architect is a role in the Digital Enterprise team, where we deliver digital platform products and define technology strategies for the enterprise to support our businesses.

WHY YOU MATTER?
A technologist at heart, you are passionate about defining and executing outstanding platform strategies and services. You motivate and advise platform teams across the enterprise to think about modern ways to integrate services, processes, and experiences. You stay ahead of innovative technologies identifying new opportunities, architecture, enterprise integration patterns and standards in the integration space, that helps bp deliver a modular and composable enterprise.

You believe that delivering leading technology products, at scale and at pace, depends on deep understanding of application and integration design patterns, and fostering effective frameworks for managing technology across the organization. You are a strategic thinker, able to plan but with a bias for short-and-mid-term action. You will operate in a dynamic and delivery focused environment, with the resources of one of the world's most forward-thinking digital teams. You are confident and comfortable working across diverse cultures and people. Together with the product teams, you define the architectural principles for the enterprise API (Application Programming Interface), their reuse and their KPIs (Key Performance Indicators).

You do not see API (Application Programming Interface) governance as an aim, but as a tool that gives implementation teams the greatest possible freedom through clean decoupling and enables the fastest possible time to value for requirements through modular services
