Where you’ll make an impact

As the Senior Integrations Engineer, you’ll lead how financial institutions connect to the equipifi platform - and you’ll own every layer of that experience. From core processors and digital banking providers to network hosts and middleware, you’ll define the integration strategy that lets our FI partners go live faster, with fewer surprises, and with confidence that the connection is built to last.

This is a high-impact, cross-functional leadership role that blends Solutions Architecture with Forward-Deployed Engineering. You won’t just draw diagrams, you’ll roll up your sleeves, embed with FI technical teams, and drive integrations from whiteboard to production. You’ll also own our external API documentation and partner enablement materials, making sure every institution has a clear, reliable path to our platform.

We’re scaling fast across cores, digital banking platforms, and network hosts - Fiserv, Jack Henry, FIS, Corelation, Alkami, Q2, Lumin, and more. If you love mapping complex ecosystems, building repeatable playbooks, and solving the hard connectivity problems that unlock growth, you’ll thrive here. (Buckle up!)

Outcomes You’ll Own

Integration Strategy & Architecture Define and drive the integration roadmap across core processors (Fiserv, Jack Henry, FIS, Corelation, and others), digital banking platforms (Alkami, Q2, Lumin, Candescent), and network/middleware hosts. You'll map, document, and maintain the full landscape of connection types - APIs, file-based, real-time, and batch - owning both how we prioritize new connections and the technical approach for each. You know what breaks between a core and a fintech, and you build for resilience.
API Documentation & Developer Experience Serve as the owner of all external-facing API documentation, integration guides, and technical onboarding materials. You'll ensure every FI and partner has what they need to integrate efficiently and with minimal back-and-forth.
Forward-Deployed Engineering Get hands-on with FI technical teams, core providers, and digital banking partners to troubleshoot, prototype, and deliver integrations. You're comfortable on-site or embedded with a customer when the situation calls for it - because the best integrations are built shoulder-to-shoulder.
Scalable Frameworks & Partner Enablement Build repeatable integration playbooks, certification processes, and partner enablement toolkits so we can support a growing FI portfolio without linear headcount growth. You'll turn one-off wins into scalable patterns.
Cross-Functional Leadership & Team Building Collaborate closely with Product, Engineering, Customer Success, and Sales to prioritize integrations, remove blockers, and align technical delivery with go-to-market timelines. You'll be the connective tissue between what we build and how our FIs experience it. As the function scales, you'll have the opportunity to remain an IC, or recruit and grow a team of integration managers and technical consultants - setting the bar for technical rigor, customer empathy, and velocity.
