• Strong communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to influence technical and non-technical audiences, including senior leadership.
• Hands-on experience with modern technology ecosystems, including cloud platforms (Azure), data platforms (Databricks), integration technologies, SAP, and planning solutions such as o9, Kinaxis, Blue Yonder, SAP IBP, or similar.
• Good understanding of AI-enabled solutions, analytics, forecasting, optimization capabilities, and emerging technologies, with the ability to guide their practical and responsible adoption.

What else you will be doing

• Improve the architecture decision flow for Integrated Planning, including lightweight triage for configuration changes, deeper review for architectural/data/integration impact, and transparent decision records.
• Help teams identify risks, trade-offs, dependencies, and non-functional requirements early, before they become UAT or go-live issues.
• Coach teams to produce clear, concise, decision-oriented architecture documentation that can be reused across programs.
• Work with Merchandising, Supply Chain, Planning, Product, Engineering, Delivery, Data & Analytics, Enterprise Architecture, and strategic vendors to align business needs with practical architecture.
• Challenge vendor proposals when they create unnecessary complexity, duplicate capabilities, or weaken Pandora’s long-term architecture.
• Act as a trusted technical advisor to leadership on domain architecture choices, platform trade-offs, transition risks, and AI-enabled planning opportunities.

Pandora is transforming how we plan, forecast, allocate, replenish, and optimize inventory across a global, omnichannel business. We are looking for a Senior Architect, Domain Architecture for Merchandising & Integrated Planning to shape the architecture of this critical business domain across core planning platforms, data and integration layers, legacy transition paths, and emerging AI-enabled planning capabilities.

This is a senior, hands-on architecture leadership role. You will not be an ivory-tower architect and you will not be a delivery manager. Your mission is to create clarity, coherence, and reusable architecture across a complex landscape of planning workflows, platforms, integrations, data products, and AI-enabled decision support. You will partner closely with Engineering, Product, Delivery, Enterprise Architecture, business planning teams, data teams, and strategic vendors to ensure that Pandora’s planning technology landscape is scalable, explainable, secure, and aligned to business outcomes. You will help smaller, AI-augmented teams move faster by giving them better domain models, reference patterns, decision guardrails, and architecture standards.

Our Offer:
