About The Position

Position Summary... Catalog Intelligent Solutions is a business platforms strategy team that turns item, origin, trade, and operational data into intelligence for Merchandising, Finance, and Operations. We define shared data and decision capabilities that other products and platforms rely on — from how we represent where products come from and how they move through upstream supply chains, to how those signals inform duty, cost, compliance, and operational decisions. The Origin, Trade & Cost Intelligence capability brings together product identity, country-of-origin, upstream traceability context, and commercial signals to support tariff and cost analytics, sourcing and negotiation decisions, regulatory readiness, and network and assortment planning. We partner closely with product, engineering, and analytics enablement teams to ensure our designs fit into a coherent, enterprise-wide data ecosystem. What you'll do...
