• Work with JSON, XML, CSV, and other data formats; implement DataWeave transformations.
• Configure and manage APIs in Anypoint API Manager, including applying governance and security policies.
• Perform unit testing (e.g., MUnit), debugging, and performance tuning for Mule applications.
• Participate in code reviews, documentation reviews, and contribute to continuous improvement of integration standards.
• Maintain thorough technical documentation for integrations, API specifications, and deployment processes.
• Stay current with MuleSoft feature updates, new connectors, platform capabilities, and industry integration trends.
