Collaborate with IT and business teams to translate data requirements into technical designs and functional workflows.

Define and monitor data quality metrics, and implement corrective actions where needed.
Establish end-to-end business processes for the creation, validation, enrichment, and lifecycle management of master and product data.
Coordinate with supply chain, engineering, finance, and sales functions to align data processes and ownership.
Integration, Analytics, and Data Enablement
Design and implement data integration frameworks connecting MDM/PIM systems to ERP, CRM, and Engineering Data Management tools using APIs, ETL, or middleware platforms (e.g., MuleSoft, Boomi, Infor ION).
Partner with BI and Analytics teams to make curated master data available for reporting, dashboards, and data-driven insights.
Ensure MDM and PIM architectures support data lineage tracking, metadata management, and downstream analytics platforms (e.g., Power BI, Tableau, Snowflake).
