Product Information Management (PIM / Akeneo)

Orcapod Consulting Services; Bengaluru; On-site; INR 2,000,000 - 3,200,000; Full time

Job summary

Orcapod Consulting Services is seeking an experienced Solution Architect to lead architecture across PIM, data, and integration domains. You will decompose requirements, design high-level architectures, and guide delivery teams to realize intended designs in cloudnative environments.

The role emphasizes cloudnative patterns, RESTful APIs, event-driven integrations, and strong governance with ADRs, achieving scalable, secure, and observable systems for enterprise use.

Qualifications

• Decompose business and product requirements into clear, implementable architectural components.
• Design solutionlevel architectures for PIM capabilities, including data models, interfaces, workflows, and integration patterns.
• Perform architecture tradeoff analysis (build vs buy, cost vs scalability, speed vs sustainability).
• Define and document nonfunctional requirements including scalability, performance, security, reliability, and operational readiness.
• Produce and maintain architecture artifacts such as solution diagrams, interface contracts, and ADRs.
• Lead solution architecture reviews and design walkthroughs with stakeholders.
• Bridge Product, Engineering and System Architecture to ensure alignment and design intent realization.
• Provide architectural guidance to delivery teams and mitigate solutionlevel risks.
• Design cloudnative PIM solutions on cloud platforms (AWS preferred) with scalable, resilient patterns.
• Design RESTful APIs and integration patterns; apply event-driven patterns where appropriate.
• Define service boundaries, data ownership, and resilience patterns like retries and circuit breakers.
• Design data flows and canonical data models across PIM, Commerce, CMS, Search, and downstream systems.
• Ensure data quality, consistency, and synchronization across platforms.
• Collaborate on CI/CD pipelines and apply Infrastructure as Code; embed security by design and observability.

Responsibilities

• Decompose business and product requirements into clear, implementable architectural components aligned to platform and enterprise standards.
• Design solutionlevel architectures for PIM capabilities, including data models, interfaces, workflows, and integration patterns.
• Perform architecture tradeoff analysis (build vs buy, cost vs scalability, speed vs sustainability).
• Define and document nonfunctional requirements including scalability, performance, security, reliability, and operational readiness.
• Produce and maintain architecture artifacts such as solution diagrams, interface contracts, and architectural decision records (ADRs).
• Participate in and lead solution architecture reviews and design walkthroughs.
• Act as a bridge between Product, Engineering, and System Architecture, ensuring shared understanding and alignment.
• Provide ongoing architectural guidance to delivery teams to ensure design intent is realized in implementation.
• Identify solutionlevel architectural risks and recommend mitigation strategies.
• Design and guide PIM solutions on cloudnative platforms (AWS preferred).
• Apply best practices for containerized and cloudnative architectures, including scalability, resilience, and cost efficiency.
• Design RESTful APIs and integration patterns for PIM consumers and downstream systems.
• Apply eventdriven and asynchronous integration patterns where appropriate.
• Define service boundaries, data ownership, and resilience patterns (retries, idempotency, circuit breakers).
• Design data flows and integrations across PIM, Commerce, CMS, Search, and downstream enterprise systems.
• Define and govern canonical data models and domain events.
• Ensure data quality, consistency, and synchronization across platforms.
• Collaborate with platform and DevOps teams on CI/CD pipelines and deployment strategies.
• Apply Infrastructure as Code concepts; embed security by design, including authentication, authorization, secure integrations, and compliance considerations.
• Ensure observability and operational readiness, including logging, monitoring, and supportability.
