Master data management platform for SAP and retail operations
4MDG builds a master data management (MDM) platform tailored for SAP environments, particularly in retail. The stack reveals a hybrid architecture—Ruby on Rails + PostgreSQL for the core application, complemented by a data pipeline layer (Python, NiFi, Elasticsearch, Kibana) for governance and reporting. Active hiring in data (4 roles) and a proof-of-concept for streaming frameworks signal a shift toward real-time data quality monitoring and scaled pipeline operations, moving beyond static master data management.
4MDG provides a centralized master data management solution for enterprise customers running SAP, with particular strength in retail and ERP environments. The platform simplifies master data governance—managing materials, vendors, and customer records—while reducing manual data entry errors and rework. Founded in 2008 and based in São Paulo, the company operates across consulting, implementation, and software-as-a-service delivery. Current projects span data integration pipelines, governance dashboards, compliance reporting, and a central registration portal ('central de cadastro'). The organization is in accelerating hiring mode, focused on data engineers and infrastructure roles.
Ruby on Rails and PostgreSQL for the core application; Python, NiFi, Elasticsearch, and Kibana for data pipelines and governance; Angular and TypeScript for front-end; Docker and AWS for deployment; Sidekiq and Redis for async processing.
Active projects include a Python + NiFi data integration solution, governance reporting improvements, streaming framework proof-of-concept, project dashboards, and a central registration portal. Pain points center on scaling data pipelines, optimizing data entry workflows, and ensuring regulatory compliance.
