Software Engineer

Requisition ID: 240605

Join a purpose driven winning team, committed to results, in an inclusive and high-performing culture.

We are seeking a highly skilled Data Engineer with hands-on expertise in Adobe Real-Time Customer Data Platform (RTCDP), Adobe Journey Optimizer (AJO), and schema development in RTCDP. While the work will be primarily within Adobe Experience Platform, we welcome candidates with schema and data integration experience from other enterprise MarTech stacks such as Salesforce Marketing Cloud (SFMC), Eloqua, Marketo, or Pega CDH.
This role will focus on building, integrating, and optimizing data pipelines and schemas that power customer data activation and personalization across digital channels and API-driven integrations.

Is this role right for you? In this role, you will:

Schema Development & Data Modeling:

•    Design and implement XDM-based schemas in Adobe RTCDP to support audience segmentation, personalization, and activation.

•    Extend standard schemas to accommodate custom business requirements while ensuring compatibility with downstream activation channels.

•    Collaborate with marketing and engineering teams to align schema design with campaign and journey orchestration needs across platforms.
Data Integration & Ingestion:

•    Build and maintain ingestion pipelines for batch and streaming data sources, including mobile and web events.

•    Configure and manage integrations using AEP APIs for automated data ingestion, export, and audience activation.

•    Apply prior experience with data ingestion and mapping from other MarTech platforms to optimize onboarding into AEP.
Adobe Journey Optimizer (AJO) Enablement:

•    Enable data readiness for AJO journeys and campaigns, ensuring proper schema and dataset alignment.

API-Driven Development:

•    Develop and maintain REST API integrations between AEP and external systems for data synchronization, activation, and reporting.
Quality & Governance:

•    Implement data validation, mapping, and transformation rules to ensure data integrity and compliance.

•    Partner with data governance teams to maintain data privacy, consent, and compliance standards (e.g., GDPR, CCPA).

Do you have the skills that will enable you to succeed in this role? We'd love to work with you if you have:

•    3+ years of experience as a Data Engineer or similar role in a MarTech or data engineering context.

•    Experience working with schema and data modeling experience from platforms like Eloqua (e.g., Contacts, Custom Data Objects, Activities) and SFMC (e.g., Data Extensions, Contact Builder) 

•    Working knowledge of Adobe Journey Optimizer and its integration with RTCDP datasets.

•    Proficiency with AEP APIs for data ingestion, activation, and schema management.

•    Strong skills in SQL and one or more programming languages (Python, Java, or preferred).

•    Experience with cloud platforms (Azure, AWS, or GCP) for data processing and integration.

•    Hands-on experience with Adobe RTCDP schema design, dataset management, and ingestion workflows.

•    Schema and data integration experience with platforms such as Salesforce Marketing Cloud, Eloqua, Marketo, or Pega CDH.

•    Familiarity with Eloqua's Custom Data Objects (CDOs) and SFMC's Data Extensions and Contact Builder.

•    Experience with customer identity stitching and profile unification in RTCDP or similar platforms.

•    Knowledge of event-based data models and real-time streaming pipelines (Kafka, Kinesis, etc.).

•    Familiarity with marketing automation, personalization strategies, and customer journey orchestration.

•    Strong problem-solving and debugging skills.

•    Ability to translate marketing and business requirements into scalable data solutions.

•    Collaborative mindset with the ability to work cross-functionally with marketing, data, and engineering teams.

•    Strong communication skills—able to explain technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders.
