A Stibo MDM Technical Lead is a pivotal senior role within the data management and enterprise IT landscape, focused on architecting and guiding the implementation of master data solutions using the Stibo Systems STEP platform. Professionals in these jobs sit at the intersection of deep technical expertise, strategic data governance, and project leadership. Their core mission is to ensure an organization's critical master data—covering products, customers, suppliers, and assets—is accurate, consistent, and accessible across the entire digital ecosystem, thereby driving operational efficiency and informed decision-making. Typically, the role involves a broad spectrum of responsibilities that span the entire project lifecycle. A Stibo MDM Technical Lead is commonly responsible for designing and validating the foundational data model within STEP, defining hierarchies, attributes, workflows, and user roles to meet complex business requirements. A significant part of the role involves planning and leading technical workshops with diverse stakeholders to gather requirements, demonstrate solutions, and align on data governance processes. A critical technical duty is designing and overseeing system integrations; this includes creating robust interfaces between the Stibo MDM hub and a variety of enterprise systems such as ERP suites (like SAP), PIM, CRM, and e-commerce platforms using modern API technologies (REST, GraphQL), middleware, and event-driven architectures. Beyond design, individuals in these jobs provide hands-on technical leadership to development and configuration teams, ensuring best practices are followed in customizing the STEP platform. They take ownership of resolving sophisticated, end-to-end technical challenges and lead troubleshooting efforts that span multiple integrated systems. Their role is inherently collaborative, requiring them to translate business needs into technical specifications and to communicate complex technical concepts clearly to both technical teams and business executives. Typical skills and requirements for Stibo MDM Technical Lead jobs include a strong educational background in computer science, information systems, or a related field, coupled with extensive hands-on experience with the Stibo STEP platform. Candidates must possess a deep understanding of MDM principles, data modeling, data quality, and data governance frameworks. Proven experience in designing and implementing system integrations using APIs and messaging services is essential. The role demands strong leadership and mentorship abilities, excellent problem-solving skills for complex technical scenarios, and superior communication and facilitation skills for conducting workshops and managing stakeholder relationships. Fluency in English is often a standard requirement in multinational settings, and a successful candidate will demonstrate a track record of advising on MDM strategies and leading technical teams to deliver enterprise-scale solutions.
