Overview The Systems Integrations & Automations Engineer serves as the primary technical owner for connectivity across Stellar Virtual's core business and learning platforms, ensuring these systems operate as a reliable source of truth for student data. This is a hands-on engineering role covering integration architecture, automation, and lightweight tooling. The role requires deep technical fluency in API architecture, data mapping, and automated pipeline design, translating cross-platform data flows into stable, scalable technical solutions across Salesforce, Student Information Systems, the Learning Management System, the data warehouse, and other enterprise platforms, to fulfill our mission of empowering families and unleashing potential.

Essential Duties

- Integration Architecture and Platform Connectivity
- Design, build, and maintain secure, scalable integrations connecting Salesforce, the Genius Student Information
- System, the Learning Management System, the data warehouse, and other enterprise platforms.
- Own API connectivity, authentication protocols (OAuth, API keys, JWT), named credentials, and endpoint configuration to support reliable cross-platform communication.
- Build and maintain custom APIs where vendor tooling falls short, and build integrations against third-party and vendor REST APIs, handling pagination, rate limits, and inconsistent or incomplete vendor documentation
- Data Integration and System Reliability
- Develop and maintain field-level data mapping, synchronization processes, and data exchange standards that keep student, household, and enrollment records consistent and accurate across systems.
- Design integrations that fail loudly and recover gracefully: retries with backoff, idempotency, dead-letter handling, and alerting.
- Proactively monitor integration and sync job health, troubleshoot discrepancies, and resolve issues through root cause analysis before they impact users.

- Automation and Tooling
- Develop automations for recurring data processing, including warehouse data extraction and generation of formatted files for import into downstream systems.
- Design, build, and maintain lightweight internal tools and applications that solve real operational problems, including browser extensions, utility scripts, and Apps Script-based tools, choosing whatever stack best fits the job
- Governance, Testing and Documentation
- Establish and maintain integration standards, documentation, and governance practices that promote data integrity, security, and compliance with student data privacy requirements.
- Design test cases and coordinate validation cycles for new or modified integrations to ensure changes do not disrupt existing business processes or data flows.
- Author integration architecture diagrams, data flow documentation,



and troubleshooting runbooks that support long-term sustainability and knowledge sharing.
- Play a key role in collective success by proactively pivoting to support emerging business needs and strategic priorities directed by your manager

- Deep functional and technical proficiency in REST APIs, authentication protocols, and data mapping across disparate systems, with a proven track record of building and maintaining production integrations end-to-end.
- Demonstrated ability to design for failure (retries, idempotency, monitoring, alerting) and to troubleshoot production data sync issues, tracing discrepancies back to root cause across multiple systems.
- A creative, resourceful approach to tool selection and problem-solving, comfortable choosing the right language, platform, or approach for the job rather than defaulting to one stack.
- 2+ years of experience working within K-12, virtual education, higher education, or education technology environments, with a strong understanding of student lifecycle processes (enrollment, attendance, support ticketing, records).
