 </ul>
 E-Commerce &amp; Digital Channel Architecture
 
 
 <ul>
 <li>
 Own the technical architecture and performance of the company&rsquo;s direct-to-consumer e-commerce storefront and its separate professional/B2B ordering platform, ensuring both integrate cleanly with core ERP, inventory, and fulfillment systems rather than operating as disconnected silos.
 </li>
 <li>
 Manage the technical relationship with outside e-commerce development agencies and platform vendors supporting our web properties, keeping security patching, platform upgrades, and roadmap priorities aligned with business needs.
 </li>
 <li>
 Architect toward a more unified customer and partner data model across our growing set of web properties &mdash; consumer storefront, professional ordering portal, account management, partner concierge program, partner benefits site, and professional education platform &mdash; reducing fragmentation and manual reconciliation between systems.

 <li>
 Directly lead, manage, and mentor a team of systems administrators, database administrators, platform engineers, and help desk technicians.

 </li>
 <li>
 Build and sustain a collaborative, egoless, growth-focused culture, providing hands-on coaching and career development for direct reports.
 </li>
 <li>
 Set clear performance expectations and KPIs for the IT department, and establish monitoring practices to track both system performance and team output.
