We’re looking for a candidate with strong expertise in CSS and AMPscript, along with a solid understanding of segmentation and journeys. During prescreening, it’s important to dig deeper into their experience - surface level exposure to email (e.g. only updating subject lines or making minor edits) is not sufficient.
This role requires a hands-on, development focused professional who can independently build complete emails from the ground up. The ideal candidate will have deep, end to end knowledge of email development, particularly within Salesforce Marketing Cloud (SFMC), and extensive experience creating highly segmented, dynamic email campaigns using HTML. The manager shared that the candidates that interviewed were more on the campaign development side rather than true eMail development.
