About the Role
SMUD is seeking a WebMethods Integration Developer to support its IT organizational portfolio for 2026. In this leased capacity, you will play a critical role in developing web service APIs and integrations that enable the implementation of various capital projects across the utility. This position serves as the technical bridge connecting enterprise systems—including GIS, ERP, asset management, project controls, and document management—to ensure seamless data exchange and interoperability.
You will work closely with SMUD IT resources, business stakeholders, and project teams to design solutions that are secure, scalable, and resilient. The role involves not only building robust APIs but also ensuring they adhere to strict cybersecurity policies, industry standards (such as NIST and CIS Controls), and organizational documentation standards. Your work will directly impact the organization's ability to manage data flow and integrate legacy systems with modern cloud solutions.
Work Environment & Expectations
This is a hybrid role based in Sacramento, California. The position requires an initial 3-day onsite orientation and onboarding session at SMUD's Sacramento offices. Following the orientation, the schedule is set for onsite work every Wednesday, with remote work permitted on all other days. The work schedule falls between 7:00 AM and 5:00 PM Pacific Time, subject to agreement with the immediate supervisor. Contractors must have reliable internet and work exclusively within the United States.
Strong communication skills are essential, as you will be required to translate highly technical information into clear verbal and written updates for the project team. All deliverables must be fully documented, and technical knowledge transfer will be provided as required to ensure long-term maintainability.
Application Instructions
To apply, please submit a response to the following pre-screening questions. Each response must be a maximum of one page:
- Describe your hands-on experience designing, developing, and securing RESTful APIs and integrations on the webMethods platform, including your use of authentication protocols, data formats, and custom Java services and transformations.

Specifically, highlight your experience with SAP RFC calls, Trading Networks/B2B, and middleware/connectors for interoperability. Please also detail your approach to error handling, monitoring, and cybersecurity compliance.
- Outline your process for ensuring quality and maintainability in your solutions through testing (WM test suite - unit, integration, UAT), automation (regression tests), and documentation.
