- Plan and govern integration shutdown and recommissioning for edge applications scheduled for retirement once the new CIS becomes the system of record.
- Build and maintain an integrated integration delivery plan that aligns BTP and edge work to the program release roadmap, test cycles, freeze periods and customer experience protection windows.
- Hold the system integrator and vendors accountable for scope, quality, schedule and estimates; review deliverables and resolve escalations.
- Own integration risks, issues, dependencies and decisions, and report status, readiness and trade-offs clearly to program and IT leadership.
- Coordinate closely with architecture, data conversion, testing, security, infrastructure and network teams, and with business process owners.
- Develop and mentor Xcel Energy integration staff and contractors so that integration capability remains in-house after go-live.

- Hands-on delivery experience with API management and event-driven patterns.
- Working knowledge of enterprise middleware and API platforms such as IBM ACE/APIC, Apigee, AWS integration services, MFT and B2B/EDI tools.
