Active projects reveal a company in mid-modernization: customer data platform implementation, ERP transition, and tracking infrastructure upgrades are underway. Hiring skews toward sales and marketing roles (30 of 56 open positions), alongside manufacturing and product, suggesting a push to scale digital channels and data-driven operations while managing the operational complexity of legacy systems.
