Leidos seeks an experienced, hands-on Integration Engineer for the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Summit Advanced Tooling, Lakehouse, and Artificial Intelligence Services (ATLAS) program. The role designs, implements, and maintains secure, supportable integrations between the Summit Data Platform, other VA analytics platforms, on-premises systems, cloud services, and external partners.
Remote work within CONUS is permitted subject to VA approval and access requirements. Washington, DC metropolitan-area candidates are preferred. Must accommodate Eastern Time collaboration, program travel, and occasional after-hours/weekend support for critical incidents or planned maintenance.
The engineer applies approved enterprise architecture and interoperability patterns to technical designs, interfaces, and implementation, working with the Cloud Data Architect, IT Solutions Architects, security teams, and delivery teams. This role focuses on hands-on integration delivery and troubleshooting; enterprise interoperability standards and architecture governance remain with the Cloud Data Architect and VA governance authorities.
Primary Responsibilities
Design, implement, and document integration solutions using approved patterns across Azure, hybrid/on-premises environments, third-party services, and VA platforms, including Summit, Advanced Health Insights, Customer Experience Insights, and legacy data sources.
Develop interface specifications, API and data-exchange implementations, routing, network boundaries, identity federation, authorization, and trust models; identify technical dependencies and failure modes.
Apply approved VA Enterprise Cloud, Zero Trust, security, and architecture standards; maintain connection & network diagrams, technical documentation, and implementation records; flag exceptions for architecture governance review.
Implement governed data interoperability through federated access, metadata/catalog synchronization, lineage, and consistent access policies across platforms; collaborate with data governance and engineering leads.
Partner with cloud, network, security, DevSecOps, and application teams to implement, test, monitor, and troubleshoot integrations; establish runbooks, observability, and recovery procedures.
Assess integration implementation alternatives for performance, resilience, cost, maintainability, and operational risk; support architecture reviews and implementation planning.
Provide technical guidance, peer reviews, and integration troubleshooting across multidisciplinary teams; coordinate with VA stakeholders and external providers.
Support production incident escalation and service restoration for complex integration failures, including occasional after-hours response when required.
Required Qualifications
Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, Engineering, or related field with 12+ years of relevant experience; or master's degree with 10+ years of relevant experience.
Demonstrated hands-on experience designing, implementing, and supporting enterprise integration solutions spanning multiple systems and cloud/hybrid environments.
Strong knowledge of APIs, web services, data exchange, network connectivity, routing, authentication/authorization, and secure inter-system communication.
Hands-on experience designing, implementing, and troubleshooting cloud-based integrations using at least one major cloud platform (preferred Microsoft Azure), including APIs, networking, identity management, data services, and hybrid connectivity.
Understanding of enterprise data platforms, metadata, data lineage, access controls, and federated or distributed data-access approaches.
Ability to produce architecture/interface specifications, network and data-flow diagrams, operational runbooks, and technical decision documentation.
Knowledge of cybersecurity and operational resilience, including Zero Trust principles, segmentation, encryption, monitoring, and incident escalation.
Strong communication and collaboration skills; ability to work independently and mentor engineers on integration implementation.
Ability to obtain and maintain the required VA Public Trust suitability determination.
Preferred Qualifications
Highly preferred: Direct, hands-on experience supporting the VA Summit Data Platform, including its interfaces, technical dependencies, security boundaries, and operating environment. Related VA enterprise data and analytics experience also receives strong consideration.
Hands-on Microsoft Azure integration experience, particularly with Azure Data Factory, Azure Data Lake Storage, and Databricks. Familiarity with Starburst, Collibra, Immuta, or comparable enterprise data integration and governance technologies is highly desirable.
Familiarity with VA Enterprise Cloud standards, VA architecture governance, PPSM, NIST 800-53, RMF/ATO processes, and federal system interconnection documentation.
Experience with API management, infrastructure as code, CI/CD, automated testing, monitoring, and Agile/DevSecOps delivery.
Relevant Azure, cloud networking, security, or integration architecture certifications.

You apply on The Muse or on the employer's page; AtiveSite does not receive or process applications and is not affiliated with The Muse. The description above is shown as the source published it.
We could not match this job title to one occupation in the official wage statistics, so no pay estimate is shown. Pay is not in the source listing; ask the employer for the range and compare in the 240 job niches.
How to prepare and behave
This is editorial guidance, not information from the employer.
Read the whole description and match your examples to its requirements; use the same words the posting uses where they are true for you.
Research the employer before the interview: what it does, who its customers are and recent news; prepare two or three questions about the work.
Arrive early (or log in early for a video call), dress one step above the daily dress code, and test your camera and audio beforehand.
Answer with short stories: the situation, what you did and the result. Give numbers when you have them and never invent them.
Be honest about gaps; say what you did to learn and how fast you can close them.
Ask about the team, the first 90 days, how success is measured and the schedule; do not open with salary and time off.
When pay comes up, know the market range for the occupation and your lowest acceptable offer before you answer; ask for the full package in writing.
Send a short thank-you message within a day, mentioning one thing you discussed.
The listing mentions a remote or flexible location. Confirm with the employer whether remote work applies to your state: taxes, licensing and benefits can depend on where you live.
The listing is remote or has no US state we could identify. Read the country guide for pay, taxes, law and cost of living by state.
