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

• 2+ years hands-on with Salesforce Data Cloud (data ingestion, identity resolution, segmentation, activation)

• Hands-on experience with Salesforce Personalization — behavioral tracking, recipe configuration, real-time segment targeting, and integration with Marketing Cloud and Data Cloud

• 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

• Can run a discovery session without a script

• Can write a solution design doc a client stakeholder will read and a developer can build from

• Can say "that won't work, and here's why" with confidence and tact

Certifications (Required)

• Salesforce Marketing Cloud Developer

• Salesforce Data Cloud Consultant

Certifications (Strongly Preferred)

• Marketing Cloud Email Specialist

• Salesforce Personalization Consultant

• Salesforce AI Specialist

Education:

• A bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, Marketing, or a related field.
