• Integration & Security Alignment: Drive API-first and event-driven integration patterns (BTP-led direction), eliminating point-to-point dependencies and aligning with identity/security frameworks (Entra ID, ServiceNow).
• Data Ownership & Compliance: Establish robust master data governance and data ownership models in a heavily regulated retail/pharma distribution environment.
