What I'm looking for

I'm seeking an enterprise integration or MuleSoft architecture role, ideally in Germany, where I can lead API-led connectivity, partner with European teams, establish governance and reusable standards, and mentor integration developers.

At United Airlines, I lead MuleSoft integration design for seat availability, pricing, assignment, and PNR workflows across booking, shopping, check-in, and Star Alliance partner carriers.

I've designed API-led System, Process, and Experience architectures; governed reusable APIs in Anypoint API Manager; and delivered secure integrations across CloudHub, CloudHub 2.0, Runtime Fabric, SAP, Salesforce, Amadeus, Sabre, and payment gateways. I also work directly with European vendors to align RAML contracts and co-design integration flows across organisations and time zones.

Across Adtalem, Aflac, Subway, Dr Pepper, Charles Schwab, HBOS/Lloyds, and Aviva, I've built integration platforms, CI/CD pipelines, migration solutions, and reliable error handling while mentoring developers and establishing API governance through a Center for Enablement.
