Primary Responsibilities
Discovery & Solutioning
-
Lead client discovery sessions — extracting requirements from marketing, IT, and data stakeholders simultaneously
-
Translate business objectives into Data Cloud data models, Marketing Cloud architectures, real-time web and app personalization strategies, and activation workflows
-
Produce solution design documents you can defend in front of both the client's CTO and their CMO
Architecture & Technical Design
-
Design end-to-end architectures spanning Data Cloud ingestion, segmentation, identity resolution, and activation into Marketing Cloud and Personalization.
-
Define how behavioral signals captured in Personalization feed back into Data Cloud unified profiles and downstream journey logic — closing the loop between onsite behavior and cross-channel execution
-
Own the technical decision-making on model choices, integration patterns, and platform configuration trade-offs
Implementation
-
Build and configure full Marketing Cloud solutions: Journey Builder, Automation Studio, Email Studio, Mobile Studio, Content Builder
-
implement Data Cloud: data streams, data model objects, identity resolution rulesets, activation targets, and calculated insights
-
Deploy Salesforce Personalization: behavioral tracking, catalog setup, decisioning recipes, promotions, segment-based rules, and A/B testing — across web and app surfaces
-
Write AMPscript, SSJS, SQL, and API integrations — from scratch when needed, not just from templates
Client Engagement
-
Run working sessions and present progress independently — no handler required
-
Anticipate objections and have the technical depth to address them on the spot
-
Translate platform constraints into honest trade-offs the client can act on
Agentforce (Bonus)
-
Experience integrating Agentforce into marketing and service workflows — surfacing real-time Data Cloud context into agent interactions
-
Building agent actions against Marketing Cloud APIs, or deploying Agentforce for marketing use cases — puts you at the front of the queue.
Required Qualifications
Experience
-
4–6 years in Salesforce Marketing Cloud — implementation, not just administration

-
Demonstrated experience owning a full project lifecycle: discovery through go-live
Technical Skills
-
AMPscript, SSJS, SQL — fluent, not familiar
-
REST/SOAP API integrations with external systems
-
Data modeling for CDP use cases: unified profiles, calculated insights, activation audiences
-
Journey Builder architecture for multi-channel, behavior-triggered programs
-
Personalization sitemap implementation, event tracking, and Einstein recipe tuning
Soft Skills That Aren't Actually Soft
