Job Description
**Specialist Middleware Configuration Integration Engineer** | Bengaluru | Full-time (WFH) | INR 13.3-25.8 LPA
**About the role:**
- Position within Middleware Configuration - Fundamentals, under the XML & Data Interchange Engineering vertical
- Level: mid level
- Reports to the functional head for Middleware Configuration - Fundamentals
**What you'll do:**
- Handle core middleware configuration - fundamentals activities on a day-to-day basis
- Use API Integration regularly as part of core deliverables
- Work closely with adjacent teams to align priorities
- Track progress against agreed timelines and escalate issues proactively
**What you'll need:**
- API Integration
- Technical Documentation
- XML/XSLT/XSD
- Fundamentals
- Data Validation & QA
- Version Control (Git)
- EDI Standards (X12/EDIFACT)
- Middleware Configuration
- MCA
- 6+ years of relevant experience
**Good to know:**
- Candidates are encouraged to highlight measurable outcomes from previous roles rather than just responsibilities held. Most days include at least one review checkpoint where progress is discussed against the plan for the week. Managers here tend to give context rather than instructions, leaving room for the individual to decide how a task gets done.
- The role alternates between independent deep work and short coordination huddles with stakeholders across functions. The hiring process typically includes a screening round, a technical or functional assessment, and a final discussion with the reporting manager. There's usually a block of uninterrupted time set aside for focused work, separate from meetings and coordination calls.
- In addition to fixed pay, the role carries eligibility for annual appraisals and merit-based increments. Compensation includes standard statutory benefits along with performance-linked variable pay. Leave policy follows standard industry norms, including earned leave, sick leave, and public holidays as applicable.
- Shortlisted applicants will be evaluated on both domain knowledge and practical problem-solving ability. The package is structured with a fixed component, performance bonus, and standard health coverage.
- Priorities can shift mid-week depending on business needs, so adaptability matters as much as technical depth. Benefits include health insurance, provident fund contributions, and paid leave in line with company policy.
- The next logical step from this position is a senior or lead-track role within the same function. New joiners typically get a short structured onboarding before being handed independent ownership of their first deliverables.
- Mornings are usually spent on planning and status reviews, while the rest of the day is given over to hands-on delivery and problem-solving. Interested candidates should be prepared to walk through relevant past work during the interview process.
- References may be requested closer to the offer stage rather than at the start of the process. No two days look identical - some are heavy on execution, others are spent largely in planning and cross-team discussions.
- Skip-level conversations with senior leadership are encouraged at least twice a year to discuss career direction. Cross-functional exposure is built into the role by design, so the person will regularly interact with adjacent teams and leadership. Learning and certification support is available for tools and frameworks directly relevant to the role.
- The team follows a flat structure where ideas are evaluated on merit rather than hierarchy, and feedback flows in both directions. Expect a mix of scheduled reviews, ad-hoc troubleshooting, and documentation as the workload shifts through the week.
- Relocation assistance may be extended for candidates moving from a different city, subject to approval. A typical day starts with reviewing priority tasks and syncing with the immediate team before moving into focused execution work.
