• Practical experience with feed-management platforms; knowledge of Productsup would be particularly valuable.
• Confidence working with feed formats and delivery methods such as XML, CSV, JSON, APIs and scheduled file transfers.
• The ability to diagnose data-quality and transformation issues using feed rules, taxonomy mapping, product segmentation and related techniques.
