A key part of HL's technology and transformation strategy
A key part of HL's technology and transformation strategy is the delivery of modern, cloud native integration and data capabilities that can be adopted across the business. These capabilities enable HL's transformation journeys by providing scalable, secure, and reusable integrations, APIs, and data products that act as trusted sources of business information.
The Senior Integration Engineer role
The Senior Integration Engineer role has a dual focus:
- Designing and building cloud native integrations and APIs on AWS
- Engineering data pipelines and hubs that support data reuse and provide reliable, well governed data assets
- Liaising with wider Product engineering and business teams to drive integration builds and patterns for adoption across the organisation.
This role sits within the Integration team and works closely with Data Platform, Architecture, and Product teams to deliver end to end integration and data hub solutions.
What you'll be doing
Business Engagement & Strategic Integration Direction
- Engage closely with business stakeholders and cross‑functional technical teams to understand current and future integration needs
- Help define and shape forward looking integration and API patterns that scale across the organisation
- Translate business objectives into pragmatic integrations and data solutions, ensuring delivery is value‑led rather than purely technology‑driven
- Influence integration architecture decisions by balancing strategic direction, delivery feasibility, and measurable business outcomes
- Act as a trusted technical partner to the business, clearly articulating trade‑offs, benefits, and opportunities related to integration approaches
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
