Customer
A global quick-service restaurant brand portfolio. Loyalty and offers have to feel local to each brand’s guests, and still compound as shared customer intelligence across the estate.
-
Challenge
Drive loyalty through real-time offers across in-store experience, app, and campaigns—without collapsing brand and CMO autonomy into one marketing monoculture.
Enriched insight had to travel as shared products and features, not as a mandate that every brand surrender its voice.
-
Work
Built a unified data hub on Databricks, Confluent, and Kafka Connect. Stood up a feature store for high-cardinality user attributes. Published golden data products—Customer 360, Product, and Campaign Performance—and propensity modelling across the brand / product / regional portfolio.
Ingested clickstream across properties and Google Analytics. Reverse ETL into Braze and other activation systems so offers could fire in-store, in-app, and in campaigns from the same hub.
