Enterprise / orgs

The gap in what exists: Enterprises constantly need custom, reliable integrations between their SaaS tools, and internal teams often lack the specific expertise or bandwidth.
Wedge to win: Position expertise in Azure DevOps and Node.js for rapid, high-quality delivery of critical system integrations, offering a more agile and cost-effective alternative to large consultancies.
Reputation value (worth doing free for proof) — 70/100: Successfully delivering a complex enterprise integration project provides strong proof-of-work and client testimonials for future B2B development or integration contracts.
Likely monetization: hourly contract / freelance
Incumbents to beat: Integration consultants (e.g., Accenture, Deloitte)Freelance developers on platforms like Upwork/Toptal

Deliver it

A starter prompt for Claude Code, what you'll need, and how to reach them.

You are a Senior Integration Developer. I need to design and build robust API integrations between Craft.io and Azure DevOps Services (ADO), support a three-system integration model, and develop JavaScript functions for automation. This is a remote, US-based contract role with a tight budget, paying $80-$85/hour. The focus is on extending and stabilizing existing systems.

Your task is to provide the core code structure and an implementation plan for the primary integration workflow: syncing data bi-directionally between Craft.io and ADO. Assume a modern stack: Node.js for the core integration logic, leveraging `express` for any necessary webhook endpoints, `axios` for API calls, and potentially `azure-sdk-for-js` for specific Azure services interactions. Use a Postgres database (Neon) for any persistent state or logging required. The application will be deployed on Azure cloud services, with CI/CD in mind. Implement the initial data mapping and transfer for a key entity (e.g., 'features' or 'work items') from Craft.io to ADO.

MVP Slice: Implement a one-way synchronization of a 'Feature' from Craft.io to a 'Work Item' in Azure DevOps. This should involve:
1. Setting up a webhook listener (if Craft.io supports outgoing webhooks) or a polling mechanism to detect new/updated features in Craft.io.
2. Mapping relevant Craft.io 'Feature' fields to Azure DevOps 'Work Item' fields.
3. Creating or updating the corresponding 'Work Item' in Azure DevOps via its REST API.
4. Basic error handling and logging to a Postgres database.

Provide the `package.json` with necessary dependencies, the main Node.js application file (`src/index.js`), a configuration file (`config/default.json`), and an initial `api/craftio.js` and `api/ado.js` for API interactions. Also, outline the steps for setting up the Azure environment and CI/CD for this MVP.

How you'd build it

1Spin up a local development environment with Node.js, Python, and relevant Azure CLI tools.
2Familiarize with Craft.io and Azure DevOps Services APIs documentation and identify key data models.
3Design the API integration architecture for bi-directional data flow between Craft.io and ADO, focusing on event-driven webhooks and robust error handling.
4Develop initial RESTful API endpoints and JavaScript functions to establish core data synchronization.
5Implement CI/CD pipelines for automated testing and deployment of integration components on Azure.
6Work with the hiring manager to stabilize existing systems and extend with additional workflows as needed.

Risks & moats

Budget constraints are explicitly tight, potentially leading to scope creep or reduced hours.
Understanding the existing, poorly flowing data between three systems will require significant initial effort to untangle.
Maintaining structure and consistency across multiple existing systems is complex and error-prone.
The client may have unstated expectations about the pace or complexity of the integration work given the explicit budget limitations.
