System Integration Engineer – Level II
Duration: 36 months (Contract – NO BENEFITS)
Location: Remote (consultants may occasionally need to visit the office in Albany, NY for meetings or conferences, as required)
Project: Rent Regulation System Modernization
Job Summary
Serve as the organization’s Salesforce technical expert and architect for the Rent Regulation System Modernization project, representing the organization’s technical interests with the implementation vendor.
Define the Salesforce technical standards (coding, configuration, naming, security, and deployment) that the vendor must follow and the internal team will inherit.
Review the vendor’s architecture, data model, security model, and integration designs for quality, scalability, and long-term supportability, and recommend improvements.
Review the vendor’s code, configuration, and deployments against organizational standards, and identify defects, technical debt, and design risks before they are accepted.
Verify that the vendor’s designs and deliverables trace back to documented business requirements, including all case types and rent calculation rules.
Review the vendor’s large data volume strategy (indexing, query performance, data archiving, and record retention) for decades of building, apartment, and rent history data.
Independently validate the vendor’s data migration from the legacy rent regulation system, including data mapping, record counts, reconciliation, and data quality.
Review the vendor’s integration with the OpenText Content Server document management system, including how existing documents and scanned images are linked to new Salesforce case, registration, building, and apartment records, how access is secured, and how retention rules are applied. Make sure links to existing documents survive the change from legacy identifiers to new ones.
Define and run parallel-run and reconciliation testing that compares Salesforce results to legacy system outputs for registrations, legal rent calculations, and case processing.
Work with legacy system staff to capture and document business rules, data structures, and interfaces from the legacy rent regulation system.
Design and build the data warehouse models and ETL processes that bring Salesforce and legacy data into the enterprise data warehouse, and support data feeds to other external agencies.
Design master data for the core business entities (buildings, apartments, owners, and other parties) and make sure the vendor’s Salesforce data model aligns with it.
Analyze the existing .NET applications, document their business rules and data for the vendor’s replacement work, and maintain and integrate them until they are retired.
Develop hands-on proofs of concept and internally owned components to test vendor approaches and estimates.
Help build the internal Salesforce support team: define the skills needed, mentor and train internal developers, and involve them in vendor work so they are ready to take over.
Plan and manage the transition of support from the vendor to the internal team, making sure source code, environments, administrative access, documentation, and support procedures are handed over before the contract ends.
Take part in vendor sprint reviews and design sessions with business analysts, project managers, and program staff.
