Rahul Sharma

Solution architect with 16+ years in enterprise integration, spending most of that time deep in SAG webMethods, with additional hands-on work across Microsoft BizTalk, Azure integration services, and UiPath-based automation. Comfortable owning a project end to end - from the first requirements conversation with a business stakeholder through architecture, build, and go-live. Known on my teams for documentation people can actually follow, calm troubleshooting under pressure, and mentoring junior engineers.

Recently expanded into RPA and Model Context Protocol (MCP) work, connecting automation platforms to modern AI tooling.

• Act as the go-to architect for integration projects - sit down with business stakeholders, understand what they actually need, and turn that into a workable technical design.
• Weigh up different technology options for each project and make the call on what fits best, rather than defaulting to the familiar.
• Lead implementation across several teams at once, keeping timelines and dependencies visible so nothing falls through the cracks.
• Run regular architecture reviews to keep systems aligned with internal standards and industry best practice.
• Keep an eye on new technologies and how they might affect existing systems, so the roadmap stays realistic rather than reactive.
• Write and maintain architecture documentation and technical specs that the next person can actually use.
