Position Summary

This is a high-ownership role for a backend engineer who is equally at home building system-to-system integrations and building data pipelines. Equify runs on a connected set of vendor platforms for origination servicing CRM documents and accounting brought together in a Databricks lakehouse for reporting and analytics. Youll own both halves of what connects them: the backend integrations that move a deal from one system to the next as it happens and the data layer that lands everything in one place for reporting reconciliation and audit.

On the integration side youll design and build the services that connect our core platforms through their APIs such as the handoff of an approved deal from our origination platform into our servicing platform and keep them running reliably in production. On the data side youll own ingestion change data capture and the transformation layers our reporting depends a lending business a record that is almost right is wrong so idempotent design error handling testing and monitoring are part of how the work gets done: a core expectation of the role not a nice-to-have.

This is also an AI-forward role and we want someone who leans on modern AI coding tools by instinct to multiply what they can deliver. Youll work closely with our technology team our risk and analytics team and the vendors who run our core platforms. Youll report directly to the Director of Business Systems.

This is an in-office role based at Equifys offices in Fort Worth Texas. It is not eligible for remote or hybrid work.

Key Roles / Responsibilities

• Design build and operate backend integrations between Equifys core platforms including loan origination loan servicing Salesforce Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central document and credit-data systems.
• Build the APIs services and middleware that sit between vendor systems using REST APIs webhooks and message queues as each problem requires.
• Engineer integrations for production: authentication retries idempotency error handling logging and replay so a failed transaction is caught and recovered rather than silently lost.
• Work directly with platform vendors on API capabilities field mappings and integration testing and document each integrations contract and behavior.
• Own data ingestion from the same systems into the Databricks lakehouse including change data capture and incremental loads.
• Design and maintain the transformation layers that reporting analytics and reconciliation depend on with correct handling of history deletes and late-arriving changes.
• Define and enforce schema contracts with upstream systems so a format change is caught at the boundary rather than discovered downstream.
• Establish the shared customer contract and asset keys that let records match across systems both in the integrations and in the lakehouse.
• Build monitoring alerting and reconciliation checks across integrations and pipelines so failures and mismatches surface before the business finds them.
• Replace manual re-keying and recurring manual data preparation with maintained documented automation.
• Build the integration and data foundation for the customer-facing platforms on our roadmap.
• Use modern AI coding tools to accelerate design implementation testing and documentation.
