Why We Need You:
This role requires a strong systems mindset and the ability to operate across multiple domains (i.e., you can see how everything connects), including customer-facing eCommerce platforms, internal operational systems, and the data platform that powers analytics and reporting. Many departments depend on those platforms, including eComm, Supply Chain, Logistics, Finance, Customer Care, B2B Sales, and Physical Retail.
You'll partner closely with engineering teams, data engineers, analysts, and business stakeholders to define product strategy, prioritize initiatives, and deliver solutions that improve customer experience, operational efficiency, and data-driven decision making.
As the business submits requests for work, your job will be to look at the whole picture, analyze, and decide how to prioritize each initiative. You’ll be exposed to the whole business, less of a specialist and more of a generalist.
Success in this role requires balancing business priorities, technical constraints, and cross-system dependencies while driving the delivery of complex initiatives across multiple teams.
Why Article?
As a Particle (people of Article), you will have a high level of autonomy to solve challenging, meaningful problems the best way you can. That means you’re trusted to explore solutions you believe will work best (you’re the expert, after all). You’ll do all this while growing your skills within a company that is redefining the furniture industry.
