Job Summary
We are seeking an experienced and hands-on Technical Architect to help design, modernize, and evolve enterprise B2B/EDI integration platforms. The role shapes scalable, secure, and resilient integration solutions that support mission-critical business processes across Order-to-Cash (O2C) and Procure-to-Pay (P2P) workflows.
The role combines architecture and modernization work with day-to-day accountability for the health of existing platforms. Working closely with the Principal Architect and engineering leadership, this individual helps ensure current EDI environments meet business KPIs for availability, performance, transaction integrity, and partner experience, while advancing more scalable, automated, and AI-enabled designs.
The ideal candidate brings strong technical depth in EDI and integration ecosystems, translates business objectives into practical designs, and communicates effectively with engineering, product, and business stakeholders.
Key Responsibilities
- Design and evolve integration architecture for enterprise EDI/B2B platforms, balancing current-state stability with modernization and scalability.
- Translate business requirements into secure, resilient, high-performing designs across connectivity, transformation, and orchestration layers.
- Provide technical oversight for platform operations so systems consistently meet KPIs for availability, throughput, transaction integrity, and partner experience.
- Lead root cause analysis and resolution of complex issues across high-volume, mission-critical transaction flows.
- Contribute to modernization initiatives that reduce technical debt and enable API-led and event-driven integration patterns.
- Act as a hands-on subject matter expert for complex EDI/B2B scenarios, including partner onboarding, data exchange, and transaction lifecycle management.
- architectural standards, design patterns, and best practices, and participate in architecture and design reviews.
- Identify and implement automation and AI-led improvements that strengthen observability, efficiency, and decision-making across the platform.
- Partner with engineering, product, and business stakeholders to align designs with customer experience and growth goals, and mentor engineers on technical discipline and consistency.
Minimum Qualifications (Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities):
- 8-12+ years of experience in software engineering and architecture, with a strong focus on enterprise integration and EDI/B2B ecosystems.
- Hands-on experience across the EDI lifecycle, including partner onboarding, data transformation, connectivity protocols, and transaction orchestration.
- Experience designing and supporting large-scale distributed systems that process high-volume, mission-critical transactions.
- Working knowledge of modernization patterns, including cloud adoption, API-led, and event-driven integration.
- Solid grounding in operational excellence, covering system reliability, observability, performance optimization, and incident management.
- Exposure to automation and emerging AI capabilities that improve platform efficiency and scalability.
- Ability to influence technical direction and architectural decisions across cross-functional teams without direct authority.
- Strong communication skills, with the ability to translate complex technical concepts into clear business messaging.
- Hands-on mindset with the ability to dive deep into system behavior and drive resolution in high-pressure scenarios.
- Experience mentoring engineers and supporting consistent technical practices across teams.

Technical Architect Jobs in Texas: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a technical architect in Texas?
Becoming a technical architect in Texas typically starts with a bachelor's degree in computer science, information systems, or software engineering, followed by years of hands-on development or systems engineering work. Texas does not require a state-issued license for this role. Most Texas employers expect candidates to hold recognized industry certifications such as AWS Solutions Architect, Azure Solutions Architect Expert, or TOGAF, which serve as the de facto professional credentials in this field.
How much do technical architects make in Texas?
Technical architects in Texas earn a median of about $133,310 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $70,110 for the lowest 10% to over $191,800 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire technical architects in Texas?
Employers hiring technical architects in Texas right now include Blue Yonder, Salesforce, and Photon, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. Texas's concentration of technology headquarters, energy companies, and financial services firms means demand for technical architects is consistent and distributed across multiple industries rather than tied to a single sector.
Which Texas cities have the most technical architect jobs?
Dallas, Austin, and Houston post the most technical architect openings in Texas. Dallas-Fort Worth's deep base of corporate headquarters and financial services firms, Austin's technology industry and fast-growing cloud-native companies, and Houston's energy and petrochemical sector each drive sustained demand, while smaller metros like San Antonio benefit from large federal and military IT contracts.
Are there remote technical architect jobs in Texas?
Yes, and more than most fields. Technical architect work is largely design and communication-driven, which makes it well suited to remote or hybrid arrangements. About 68% of technical architect openings tied to Texas are remote or hybrid as of August 2026, reflecting how broadly distributed the talent pool and employer base have become. The most remote-friendly specialties are cloud architecture and enterprise integration, where on-site presence is rarely required day to day.
How can I get hired as a technical architect in Texas with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is moving from a software engineer or systems administrator role into a junior or associate architect position. Large Texas employers such as Dell Technologies, AT&T, and major banking institutions in Dallas run internal development programs that promote high-performing engineers into architecture tracks. Building a portfolio of architecture diagrams, earning an AWS or Azure associate-level certification, and targeting mid-size Texas technology consultancies, which regularly hire entry-level architects for client projects, all improve your chances.
Where can I find and apply to technical architect jobs in Texas?
You can find and apply to technical architect jobs in Texas on Migrate Mate, which lists current Texas openings across industries and hiring levels. Find roles that match your background and apply directly through each listing without needing to go elsewhere.
