We’re hiring a Catalogue Consultant to shape the way Salla merchants manage their product data, taxonomy, and digital content — creating catalogue systems that are both structured and merchant-friendly.
What You will Do
- Redefine how product data lives in Salla. Evaluate how merchants today create, categorize, and enrich product data — then design smarter, scalable structures for thousands of SKUs across categories.
- Build the taxonomy backbone. Define and maintain taxonomy, metadata, and data governance frameworks that support multi-language catalogues (Arabic / English) and multiple markets (GCC, International).
- Collaborate across product, engineering, and UX. Work with squads responsible for Imports, Checkout, and Discovery to improve product import flows, attribute management, and localization logic.
- Design attribute and classification templates. Create adaptive attribute templates and product schemas per merchant type (e.g., fashion, beauty, electronics), ensuring every category captures only what’s relevant.
- Drive catalogue data quality. Set standards for product data completeness, consistency, and SEO alignment — ensuring high discoverability across store search, marketplaces, and external channels.
- Lead PIM / MDM implementations. Guide system testing, integration, and data validation for catalogue syncs, bulk imports, and migration workflows from other platforms.
- Improve product discovery. Define which product attributes appear as filters and how they impact conversion, relevance, and recommendation quality.
- Collaborate on merchant tooling. Support the design of new catalogue management tools, AI enrichment features, and merchant onboarding experiences for product setup.
