If you have to Google the basics, this is not the role for you.

  • Build and manage data streams, data model objects, calculated insights, and activation targets within Data Cloud
  • Lead enterprise level implementations and integrations across the full Salesforce platform
  • Define and govern data strategy, data quality, and compliance across all Salesforce clouds
  • Act as the senior technical authority and point of escalation for all Salesforce related matters
  • Partner with marketing, sales, and technology leadership to drive platform strategy and roadmap
  • Mentor and guide junior and mid-level Salesforce team members

Qualifications and requirements

  • 8+ years of hands-on Salesforce experience with deep expertise across the full platform
  • Advanced, proven expertise in Marketing Cloud including Journey Builder, Email Studio, Automation Studio, Mobile Studio, and Audience Builder
  • Advanced, proven expertise in Data Cloud including data ingestion, identity resolution, segmentation, and activation
  • Experience delivering large scale enterprise implementations across multiple Salesforce clouds
  • Multiple Salesforce certifications required including Marketing Cloud and Data Cloud credentials
  • Proven ability to lead platform strategy and architecture with full autonomy
  • Strong written and spoken English with executive level stakeholder communication skills
  • prior remote work experience, be fluent with remote collaboration tools and platforms (such as Slack, Zoom, Google Workspace, Asana, or similar), and have ideally worked with US or UK-based companies. Applications without this experience will not be considered.
  • Salesforce Marketing Cloud Architect or Consultant certification
  • Salesforce Data Cloud Consultant certification
  • Experience with Agentforce, Interaction Studio, or Salesforce CDP
  • Background in enterprise data governance, compliance, or regulated industries
  • Experience with API integrations, AMPscript, SSJS, or SQL within Marketing Cloud
