Integration Engineer (Python)

At Symplicity, we empower higher education institutions around the world by delivering innovative solutions that drive student success. Our team designs, operates, and supports a suite of software-as-a-service (SaaS) products used by thousands of universities and millions of students, connecting employers with top student and graduate talent.

We are currently seeking an Integration Engineer to join Symplicity Brasil and help connect our products to the systems our university clients rely on. You’ll work closely with our U.S.-based team and with clients across multiple regions, so strong, confident English from day one is essential. To support your continued growth, we also offer an English development program led by a dedicated full-time instructor.

This is a forward-deployed role: you’ll build integrations against real client deployments, understand the problem behind each request, and stay close to the people using what you ship. You won’t be client-facing on day one, but within three to six months you’ll be running technical conversations directly with stakeholders around the world. We’re looking for someone who learns fast, reasons clearly about how systems fit together, and can explain that thinking to both engineers and non-technical clients.

• Build and maintain integrations between Symplicity products and third-party systems, using Python and REST APIs.
• Produce code using AI-assisted development tools—this is how our team works, and you’ll be expected to use these tools well: prompting effectively, reviewing what they generate, and standing behind the result.
• Read, transform, and validate JSON payloads, and design clean data flows between systems.
• Map a client’s process end-to-end, identify how the pieces connect, and turn that understanding into a working integration.
• Work directly with university clients across multiple regions—growing into running those technical conversations within three to six months.
• Operate what you build—monitor your integrations in production, troubleshoot issues, and keep them running reliably.
• Document your work clearly so clients, colleagues, and your future self can follow the design.
• Collaborate with Professional Services, product, and engineering teams to deliver solutions that hold up in the real world.
• Follow Agile methodologies and write clean, efficient, maintainable code.

• Communication. Strong, confident English from day one—able to explain technical ideas clearly to both engineers and non-technical clients.
• A learning posture. Genuine willingness and ability to pick up new tools and domains quickly, and to grow into a client-facing role.
• Technical acumen. The aptitude to learn new technologies fast and apply them well—you don’t need to know our whole stack, but you pick things up quickly and solidly.

• Systems thinking. The ability to look at a process end-to-end, reason about how data and systems connect, and articulate that clearly to others.
• Working proficiency in Python.
• A solid grasp of integration concepts—REST APIs, authentication flows, and reading and transforming JSON.
• Strong troubleshooting and debugging instincts.
• Familiarity with Unix/Linux command-line tools and Git or other version control systems.

• Experience with AWS and cloud-based infrastructure.
• Experience building or maintaining Airflow / Amazon MWAA DAGs.
• PHP development experience—our products use PHP, so it crosses over usefully.
• A good understanding of object-oriented programming and design patterns.
• Background in Agile environments or SaaS product companies.
• Familiarity with AI development—LLM APIs, agent patterns, prompt design, or tools like MCP. This is an emerging area for us, so curiosity counts as much as experience.
