Senior Web Methods Developer & Administrator

We are looking for a Senior webMethods Developer & Administrator with 8+ years of experience to design, develop, and administer enterprise integration solutions. The candidate will own end-to-end delivery across webMethods Integration Server, API Gateway, and Universal Messaging, while also managing Kubernetes-based deployments and CI/CD pipelines for middleware components.

•       Design, develop, and support integrations using webMethods Integration Server (flow services, Java services, adapters).

•       Configure and administer webMethods API Gateway: policy enforcement, security (OAuth2/JWT/API keys), throttling, versioning, and API lifecycle management.

•       Install, configure, and manage Universal Messaging (UM): topics/queues, ACLs, clustering, persistence, and failover.

•       Deploy, monitor, and troubleshoot webMethods components on Kubernetes (Helm charts, StatefulSets, ConfigMaps, Secrets, pod scaling).

•       Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins / GitLab / Azure DevOps) for automated build, test, and deployment of integration assets.

•       Diagnose and resolve performance, connectivity, and clustering issues (e.g., Terracotta Server Array, Apache Ignite topology/split-brain scenarios).

•       Implement and support integration patterns: pub-sub, request-reply, event-driven architecture (EDA), and ESB-based flows.

•       Manage database interactions including stored procedures, data transformations, and troubleshooting data inconsistencies.

•       Set up monitoring and observability using tools such as Application Insights, ELK, or Grafana; lead root-cause analysis (RCA) for incidents.

•       Collaborate with architects, business analysts, and downstream application teams to map and validate integration requirements.

•       Mentor junior developers and contribute to defining coding standards, best practices, and reusable integration frameworks.

•       Maintain technical documentation, deployment runbooks, and support SOPs.

•       8+ years of overall integration/middleware experience, with 5+ years hands-on in webMethods (Integration Server, API Gateway, Universal Messaging).

•       Strong understanding of REST/SOAP web services, JSON/XML, and messaging protocols.

•       Working knowledge of Kubernetes: deployments, services, networking, and troubleshooting containerized workloads.

•       Experience with CI/CD tools and scripting (YAML, Shell, Python, or similar).

•       Proficiency in SQL, stored procedures, and data engineering/transformation tasks.

•       Solid understanding of clustering and high-availability concepts (Terracotta, load balancers, shared databases).

•       Strong analytical, debugging, and root-cause analysis skills.

•       Good communication skills with ability to explain technical concepts to cross-functional teams.

•       Software AG webMethods certification.

•       Exposure to cloud platforms (Azure / AWS / GCP).

•       Experience with API management tools beyond webMethods.

•       Prior experience presenting architecture/design to technical and business stakeholders.

•       Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, IT, or a related field.
