Syndigo is looking for a Solution Architect to own end-to-end solution and functional architecture for enterprise PXM, PIM, and MDM implementations, ensuring strong alignment between business strategy, data strategy, and technical execution.

This role is accountable for leading discovery, defining target-state architecture, and producing clear, scalable, governed functional designs across systems. The Solution Architect works with customers, Program Managers, Implementation Leads, Product, Engineering, and Partners to translate requirements into executable solutions.

The Solution Architect reduces delivery risk and prevents rework by acting as the design authority and data governance champion across Syndigo's delivery programmes. As agentic commerce reshapes how product data is consumed, this role also owns whether a customer's data foundation is genuinely ready for AI.
