Own integrations between the applications and Hygiena's commercial systems, including CRM, ERP (Microsoft Dynamics NAV), and billing (Stripe), so that Sales sees accurate customer and plan data and invoicing is timely and correct. Lead the phased separation of applications from shared legacy architecture into standalone products, planning migrations that avoid disruption to customers' daily workflows
