Do you love working with IIB? Are you able to solve complex integration issues for colleagues? Can you find new innovative ways to optimise our integration solutions within production support? If yes, then we may have the role for you!

As an Integration Engineer, you will be part of our amazing IT Operations team, who look after all our technology within production support. You will specifically be looking after our integration technology (IIB) that makes sure all our wonderful technologies are able to communicate with each other seamlessly and effectively. You will respond to all issues relating to IIB and apply your expertise to troubleshoot and solve them.

Most of our jobs offer the opportunity for hybrid / remote working. Ask your recruiter for more details.

So what would you be doing?...

• Implementing best practice for IBM Integration Bus
• Raising defects and managing progress until implementation
• Making sure the stability and resilience of multiple systems communicate with each other
• Building a better experience for colleagues and customers
• Helping to reduce costs by offering specialist knowledge on IBM technology and being able to quickly resolve issues
• Performing problem determination tasks for IIB

You need to be this kind of person…

• Passionate about providing unparalleled levels of service and convenience for customers
• Able to work and learn quickly in a fast paced, fun and dynamic environment
• Prepared to stick at something - we wonder what might be the issue if someone has jumped from job to job as we want people who are prepared to learn and grow
• Care about doing a great job and exceeding expectations with the quality of what you do
• Able to work and learn quickly in a fast paced, fun and dynamic environment
  
  

And... we are a bank so risk is a part of everything we do. We love people who take responsibility, do the right thing for customers, colleagues and Metro Bank and have the courage to call out any concerns.

We always support colleagues to develop their skills. But to be successful in this job you really do need to already be able to do most of these wonderful things...

• Understand the risks associated with your job and what that means for you, Metro Bank and all our stakeholders
• Naturally, you need to have experience working as an Integration Engineer within a production support environment
• Knowledge of how to install, secure, administer, maintain and deploy IBM & MQ Integration Bus is essential for this role
• An understanding of high availability configuration, including multi-instancing of IBM & MQ Integration Bus
• Know how to monitor the health of IIB, as well as making recommendations on performance and resource optimisation
• It would be amazing if you had experience with Kafka

• This role is regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) under the Senior Managers and Certification Regime. This means that If you are successful in your application, we are required to carry out additional checks that will be repeated annually while you are in this role. For more information you can visit the FCA website or ask your recruiter who can explain further.

IMPORTANT FOOTNOTE;

Diverse teams really are the best teams. We know that candidates (especially women, research tells us) may be put off applying for a job unless they can tick every box. We also know that 'normal' office hours aren't always doable, and while we can't accommodate every flexible working request we are happy to be asked. So if you are excited about working with us and think you can do much of what we are looking for but aren't sure if you are 100% there yet… why not give it a whirl? Please note that sometimes we may close a job earlier for applications if we are inundated with amazing candidates.. Good luck!
