Viking Austria hybris Replatform

For more complex sites and web applications, managing upgrades and revamps become increasingly difficult and expensive. When launching their new eCommerce website in Austria, Office Depot used, state of the art, hybris software to prepare for the future. “Creating a sustainable business requires moving from a catalogue focused business to an omni-channel, eCommerce led approach. The pilot in Austria is a major milestone on this journey,” said Jonathan Newman, VP eCommerce & Marketing Operations and Intl CIO at OD. Following significant online growth and increased demand from customers, in Jan 2015, the project team started the build of the new platform together with software partner SAP hybris and implementation partner Tacit Knowledge, a Newgistics Company. Austria is the first country in which customers have started using the new and improved site. “The integration of the hybris’s omni-channel capabilities has enabled OD to dramatically accelerate its time to market,” said Mark Holenstein, EVP Global Sales SAP Customer Engagement & Commerce. “And driving an aggressive deployment timeline, OD, hybris and Tacit were able to help drive significant ROI.” “One of the key values that we have within OD is that the customer is at the heart of what we do”, says Newman. “Besides creating a new site, based on the latest technology, we’ve gathered customer input to deliver a website that answered to their specific needs.” Furthermore, delivering an enterprise level solution will often attract complexity surrounding not only the technology and the business process transformation, but also the people. “The quality of our engagement from day one with OD and hybris, was something that together, we focused on to ensure the project was set up for success. Without doubt, this outstanding implementation is owed to the clearly defined partnership between our three organizations.” says Trenton Brown, GM of Newgistics / Tacit Knowledge and COO.
Cultural Fit Analysis
The candidate's career trajectory shows a strong focus on leadership and strategic roles rather than hands-on software engineering. While they have a background in technology, their recent roles as CEO, CIO, and Head of Product/Engineering suggest a preference for management and business strategy. This might not align directly with a hands-on 'Software Engineer' role, which typically requires deep technical coding and system design contributions. The project diversity is limited to one detailed project description, which is also more business-oriented.
Soft Skills & Operational Fit
The candidate demonstrates strong leadership, strategic planning, and team-building skills. Their experience in transitioning organizations from waterfall to agile methodologies indicates adaptability and a focus on operational efficiency. The descriptions highlight collaboration with cross-functional teams and a customer-centric approach.
