In every role, McCainers are ambitious, curious, and passionate about creating exceptional work experiences - together. With a customer-first mindset, we make doing business with McCain easy.
About the role.
The Enterprise Application Integration Capability Lead plays a strategic role in advancing McCain's enterprise integration landscape across global transformation initiatives, including SAP S/4HANA, core enterprise platforms, business applications, and the broader SAP and non-SAP application ecosystem.
In this role, you will provide leadership across integration strategy, platform ownership, architecture direction, and delivery governance. You will work closely with business stakeholders, enterprise architecture, internal technology teams, application management services partners, vendors, and systems integration partners to ensure integration solutions are secure, scalable, reliable, maintainable, and aligned with business priorities.
Operating at the intersection of technology strategy, architecture, delivery leadership, and platform governance, you will guide strategic direction, influence stakeholders, manage delivery risk, challenge solution approaches, and ensure integration outcomes support McCain's enterprise technology roadmap. This is a leadership and governance role rather than a day-to-day development position.
What you'll be doing.

• Develop and advance McCain's enterprise integration strategy, platform roadmap, standards, reusable patterns, delivery models, and governance practices.
• Partner with enterprise architecture teams to ensure integration decisions align with technology standards, security expectations, business priorities, and long-term technical debt reduction.
• Own and govern the operational health, stability, performance, and evolution of enterprise integration platforms, including Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services and SAP Cloud Platform Integration.
• Coordinate with application management services, infrastructure, security, vendors, and application teams to support monitoring, business continuity, issue resolution, risk management, and reliable service delivery.
• Provide architecture oversight across APIs, events, files, batch interfaces, and application-to-application integration patterns within SAP and non-SAP environments.
• Review and challenge vendor and systems integration partner solution approaches to promote clean core principles, scalability, observability, supportability, and future readiness.
• Lead integration delivery governance across multiple programs, workstreams, internal teams, vendors, and implementation partners.
• Manage integration risks, dependencies, blockers, design decisions, testing readiness, cutover planning, production stabilization, and transitions to support.
• Establish consistent delivery standards, documentation, handover practices, and leadership reporting across integration workstreams.
• Serve as a trusted integration advisor, facilitating cross-functional decisions and holding delivery partners accountable for quality, timelines, standards, and long-term supportability.

What you'll need to be successful.

• At least 14 years of experience in enterprise integration, technology delivery, platform leadership, solution architecture, digital transformation, or a related area.
• Extensive experience defining and delivering enterprise integration strategies within large, complex organizations.
• Strong experience working across SAP and non-SAP application landscapes.
• Experience with SAP Integration Suite or Cloud Platform Integration, Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services, SAP Process Integration or Process Orchestration, API management, or comparable enterprise integration platforms.
• Deep knowledge of cloud integration, API-led architecture, event-driven architecture, and integration modernization.
• Strong understanding of integration patterns, including APIs, events, files, batch interfaces, and application-to-application integrations.
• Experience leading or governing delivery across multiple systems integration partners, vendors, support providers, and internal teams.
• Experience supporting platform operations, production stability, application management services coordination, and transition-to-support activities.
• Ability to provide effective architecture oversight without serving as the day-to-day application developer.
• Experience establishing integration standards, governance models, operating models, platform roadmaps, or modernization plans.
• Strong stakeholder-management, communication, issue-resolution, and delivery-governance capabilities.
• Ability to balance architecture quality with delivery realities and make sound decisions regarding vendor recommendations and solution trade-offs.
• Proven ability to influence without direct authority and create structure within complex, ambiguous, or fast-moving transformation environments.
• Experience working in global enterprise environments with distributed teams and multiple implementation partners is preferred.

About the team.
You will work across McCain's business and technology organization, collaborating with business stakeholders, enterprise architects, functional and technical teams, security and infrastructure teams, application management services partners, vendors, and systems integration partners.
