Our Why
Datacom works with organisations and communities across Australia and New Zealand to make a difference in people's lives and help organisations use the power of tech to innovate and grow.
Datapay is Datacom's SaaS payroll platform, trusted by some of the largest employers in New Zealand and Australia to pay their people accurately, on time, every time. We're growing, evolving our platform, and building out the integration ecosystem that connects payroll with the broader people tech landscape. This role is central to that journey.
About the Role
A cross-functional role serving across Datapay, spanning pre-sales, implementation, and product. You'll be our integration expert ensuring seamless connectivity between Datapay's SaaS payroll platform and the broader people tech ecosystem.
You'll sit within Ecosystems Product Management alongside the Tech PM, Engineering Manager, and Tech Lead. Together, this forms a self-sufficient unit responsible for Datapay's integration platform, partner ecosystem, and enterprise delivery.
This is a customer-facing, product-oriented role, not a deep technical architect position. We need someone who has been in this domain, done this work, and knows what good looks like. Someone hands-on with a bias for action who enjoys making solutions work in the real world, with real customers, at scale. Someone who thrives on solving problems, delivering outcomes, and maintaining momentum.
You don't need to know every application in the people tech landscape, but you need the expertise and curiosity to quickly learn new systems, reference proven patterns, and design practical solutions. Our integration landscape is evolving. We need someone comfortable with established patterns (including file-based, batch, and legacy integrations that remain a significant reality) as well as modern approaches including API-first architectures, event-driven systems, and the emerging role of AI in integration.
What You'll Do
Pre-Sales: Support enterprise pitches with realistic integration solutions. Ensure commitments are grounded in platform capabilities. Lead proof-of-concept demonstrations using our actual platform.
Implementation: Design and deliver enterprise integrations connecting payroll with HRIS/HCM, WFM, Finance ERP, onboarding, and employee engagement systems. Proactively remove technical blockers. Collaborate with customer architects, project teams, and third-party vendors. Manage risks and escalations. Drive delivery to completion: quickly, cleanly, with meaningful outcomes.
Product: Contribute to integration platform, API framework, and partner connectivity design direction. Bring customer perspective to product decisions. Shape integration standards and reusable patterns that scale. Work collaboratively with engineering on solution design, bringing a strong understanding of platform architecture and DevSecOps practices.
Across Everything: Master Datapay's payroll application, platforms, APIs, security, and environment. Document well. Evangelize and present solutions that solve real customer problems. Mentor team members. Continuously improve.
