• coordinate application, data, reporting and testing teams
• track readiness, risks, decisions and release dependencies
• make sure changes are documented so the same knowledge can support later data-quality, reporting and architecture work
• stay hands-on enough to challenge technical assumptions and help resolve cross-system issues

Expected background:

10+ years across enterprise applications, integration, data or solution architecture

experience leading system or data transition programs, re-org changes, ERP/CRM changes or similar cross-system transformations

strong understanding of APIs, integrations, data flows, master/reference data, historical restatement and downstream reporting

• MuleSoft or comparable integration platforms
• Snowflake
