Boomi Integration Developer (ERP Programme)
- Location: Fully Remote UK, with occasional travel to an office
- Contract Type: Contract
- Duration: 6 Months Initial
- IR35 Status: Outside IR35
About the Role
We are seeking a highly skilled Boomi Developer with proven experience integrating the ERP environment (Infor LN preferred) to join a digital transformation programme.
You will be the core technical lead responsible for designing, building, and deploying robust, scalable integration pipelines between the ERP (Infor LN) and surrounding enterprise ecosystem (including CRM, MES, WMS, and third-party logistics/ 3PL partners).
The ideal candidate will not just be a "component builder" in Boomi, but an integration specialist who understands complex manufacturing/ distribution data flows and can navigate the nuances of Infor LN data structures.
Key Responsibilities
- Design & Build: design, develop, and test end-to-end integration processes using the Boomi AtomSphere platform (Integrate, API Management, and EDI/ B2B standard profiles).
- Infor LN Data Pipeline: Design and optimize data models to seamlessly extract and inject data to/ from Infor LN. Convert transactional tables into modern XML/JSON payloads.
- API & Middleware Integration: Build and maintain REST/SOAP APIs and configure technology connectors (Database, SFTP, Web Services). Work closely with Infor ION (Intelligent Open Network) middleware frameworks where applicable.
- Advanced Data Mapping: Write custom scripting (JavaScript or Groovy) within Boomi to handle complex data transformations, split-routings, and multi-level parent/child loops (e.g., Purchase Order Headers to multi-line items).
- Error Handling & Monitoring: Establish rigorous enterprise-level error-handling frameworks, retry mechanisms, and automated alerting within Boomi to handle failed ERP syncs gracefully.
- Collaboration: Act as the technical bridge across technical teams and 3rd party vendors.
Technical Skills & Experience Required
1. Boomi Core Expertise (Mandatory)
- 3+ years of dedicated, hands-on experience development with the Boomi platform.
- Deep proficiency in Boomi process building, document caching, environment management, and deployment strategies (Atom/Molecule configuration).
- Strong understanding of EDI standards (EDIFACT, X12) and API security protocols (OAuth 2.0, SSL, API Keys).
- Solid experience utilizing JavaScript or Groovy for custom scripting within Boomi shapes.
2. Infor LN Specific Experience (Highly Desirable)
- Whilst ERP experience is a must, direct experience building integrations out of Infor LN (or legacy Baan systems).
- Familiarity with Infor LN's database schemas and functional tables (Finance, Logistics, Procurement, Warehousing, or Manufacturing modules).
- Understanding of how Infor LN interacts with middleware layers (such as Infor ION and BODs - Business Object Documents).
- Experience with database-level integration methods (SQL Server/Oracle queries, stored procedures, or staging tables) used to bypass or supplement direct API hits to Infor LN.
3. General Technical Foundations
- Excellent data manipulation skills (XML, JSON, flat files, profile conversions).
- Comfortable querying databases using complex SQL.
- Experience operating within a structured DevOps / DTAP (Development, Testing, Acceptance, Production) release lifecycle.
Soft Skills & Soft Requirements
- Problem Solver
- Communication
- Self-motivated and capable of working independently in a fast-paced, remote-first project layout.
