Job Description

  • 4+ years
  • To successfully implement the proposed integration between Salesforce Marketing Cloud (SFMC) and the external system, we require a developer with specialized expertise in SFMC's technical architecture and integration capabilities.
  • This role is critical for building a reliable, scalable, and secure connection that addresses the unique challenges of the SFMC platform.
  • Role: SFMC Integration Developer / Marketing Technology Engineer
  • Key Expertise Required:
  • ? Deep SFMC Development Proficiency
  • ? Extensive hands-on experience with SFMC's core development tools, including Server-Side JavaScript (SSJS) for complex logic, data manipulation, and API interactions
  • ? Understanding of AMPScript for personalization and basic data functions
  • ? Proven ability to work with Journey Builder activities, particularly configuring Decision Splits (using Contact Data) and understanding the nuances of data evaluation within journeys
  • ? Experience with Contact Builder and Data Designer to correctly model and link data for dynamic journey behavior
  • ? Familiarity with Automation Studio for batch processing and data preparation
  • ? Skill in creating and securing web endpoints in SFMC using Code Resources
  • ? Robust API and Integration Development
  • ? Experience building and consuming RESTful APIs
  • ? Strong understanding of webhook implementation (sending and receiving), including payload handling and validation
  • ? Critical experience with secure credential management , including best practices for storing and retrieving sensitive API keys (ideally using external secret management solutions)
  • ? Knowledge of authentication protocols such as OAuth 2.0 and JWT
  • ? Ability to design and implement asynchronous processing patterns to handle potential latency and high volumes efficiently
  • ? SFMC-Specific Integration Architecture
  • ? Understanding of SFMC's governor limits (script timeouts, API rate limits, Journey Builder performance) and how to design solutions that operate within these constraints
  • ? Experience implementing robust error handling, logging, and monitoring for integrations within the SFMC environment
  • ? Focus on security best practices for public-facing endpoints (HTTPS, source validation, input sanitization)
  • Why this Specific Skillset is Necessary: SFMC has unique architectural characteristics and limitations, particularly concerning scripting execution timeouts, API handling, and the distinction between Journey and Contact Data. A developer with this specific SFMC integration background is essential to navigate these complexities, avoid common pitfalls (like synchronous processing bottlenecks or insecure credential storage), and build a solution that is not only functional but also performant, reliable, and secure within the Salesforce Marketing Cloud ecosystem. Standard web or general Salesforce CRM development experience alone will not be sufficient for the intricate technical requirements of this project.
