Over the next 10 years we will add new categories and capabilities that will define frictionless commerce ecosystems.

This is a journey of technology acceleration combined with consumer readiness and adoption. We are looking for people capable of adapting relentlessly to the rapidly evolving world around us.

The Role

As a market leader in PIM/MDM solutions, Pivotree implements enterprise master data platforms (Stibo STEP, Syndigo, Akeneo, and cloud‑native solutions) for Fortune 500 and mid‑market clients. This is a hands‑on role bridging business requirements, technical design, and data strategy—owning discovery, requirements documentation, data architecture, and platform configuration. You’ll work as a co‑equal lead alongside an onshore BA, with full ownership of your workstreams. You’re expected to master new MDM platforms quickly, think critically about requirements, and leverage AI tooling (GenAI, data quality automation) to accelerate work while maintaining rigor in data governance. Time split: ~40% discovery/requirements, ~40% technical design/data work, ~20% UAT/validation/handover.

What Youll Do

• Run client workshops and translate business requirements into structured, testable user stories—using GenAI tools to draft and iterate, then validate critically
• Flag scope risks early and recommend realistic alternatives when constraints (timeline, budget, data quality) conflict with original asks
• Profile and audit legacy data; inventory data sources, identify quality issues, design transformations for the target platform
• Design and implement data governance and quality rules: stewardship models, hierarchy design, attribute governance, master data lifecycle
• Own data migrations end‑to‑end: approach, mapping, ETL runbooks, cutover validation, and rollback procedures
• Maintain requirements traceability matrix (RTM) and manage scope changes through formal change control
• Write and execute UAT test scripts; leverage AI‑assisted test generation where appropriate, validate results, manage defects to sign‑off
• Demo completed features and stories; communicate technical constraints and trade‑offs in business terms
• Author system documentation and train client teams on MDM platform capabilities and governance processes
• Facilitate stakeholder workshops; manage expectations across business, IT, data governance, and vendor teams
• Become the team expert on the assigned MDM platform; rapidly learn and apply new features and vendor releases
• Manage vendor escalations and adapt to Agile sprint ceremonies
