- Manage the technology stack for ongoing creation and maintenance of master data, driving continuous improvement thinking for how technology can improve the efficiency and accuracy of data maintenance.
- Develop an MDM architecture direction, bringing strategic thinking to defining the long-term MDM design such as a registry, consolidation, coexistence or transaction approach to MDM. Develop a roadmap for how the MDM architecture will evolve.
- Work closely with MDM business analysts and the MDM Center-of-Excellence to develop knowledge and understanding of how master data is used by the organization, particularly for Customer, Vendor and Material masters to identify opportunities for improvement. Build insights into reference data objects over time.
- Manage product roadmap planning and technology recommendations.
- Develop the technical solution that takes the current decentralized master data objects managed through multiple platforms and systems into a structure with a Golden record and a single source of truth.
- Translate the strategy roadmap into tactical phases for delivery. Coordinate with architecture functions across the enterprise such as in the Business Intelligence or Supply Chain IT teams to align on MDM strategy, approach and steps. Ensure cohesiveness of MDM strategy with overall IT strategy.
- Provide architectural and design input to projects that tap on master data. Actively participate in the Applications Design Authority (ADA) to provide insights into change impact, risks and opportunities.
