About the Role

The Membership & Incentives pod develops and manages high-volume loyalty and incentive communications across email and push for Brand Expedia, Hotels.com, and Vrbo. Because much of the portfolio consists of always-on campaigns, this role focuses on safely improving live customer journeys while ensuring communications that provide real value to travelers remain accurate and reliable.

As a Salesforce Marketing Cloud Developer within CRM Production and Traveler Engagement & Loyalty, you’ll own campaign delivery from build through launch and ongoing monitoring. You’ll lead technical execution, quality assurance, scheduling, and stakeholder coordination while serving as a key escalation point when issues arise near a scheduled send.

What You'll Do

• Configure and validate custom journey activities and API-based integrations, accounting for high-volume performance, failure states, and system thresholds.
• Write and maintain AMPscript and SQL for personalization, segmentation, validation, and troubleshooting.
• Develop safeguards that prevent communications from sending when required data is missing or incorrect.
• Build dynamic, reusable templates from Figma designs and from scratch.
• Create multi-brand, multi-market content with accurate currency formatting, dark-mode compatibility, and device coverage across more than 100 locales.
• Build audiences and segments across Salesforce Data Cloud and Marketing Cloud, including activations, automations, suppression and exclusion logic, and test and holdout groups.
• Conduct technical quality assurance and user acceptance testing according to documented standards, including rendering, device compatibility, links, tracking, dynamic logic, data joins, and journey behavior.
• Review teammates’ code and quality assurance work before campaigns reach the communications owner.
• Lead campaign execution by managing workback schedules, coordinating localization testing and Go/No-Go decisions, and completing launch-day delivery checks.
• Maintain accurate, auditable campaign documentation in Jira and Confluence, including story-point estimates, status updates, and identified risks.
• Monitor live journeys, diagnose issues, and lead root cause analysis across data, automation, journey, and content layers.
• Manage identified issues through resolution and confirm that corrective actions are completed.
• Evaluate existing processes and recommend updates when guidelines no longer support the pod’s needs.
• Help pilot automation and validation tools that reduce manual production steps.

• Fluency in AMPscript, including writing, debugging, and refactoring code.
• Strong SQL skills and the ability to validate campaign accuracy through data queries.

• Understanding of the throughput limits, thresholds, and operational requirements associated with high-volume sends.
• Strong HTML and CSS skills for email.
• Experience with dynamic and enhanced dynamic content and app push notifications.
• Ability to work independently, find solutions, recognize when escalation is necessary, and manage difficult stakeholder conversations about scope or scheduling.
• Strong attention to detail and the ability to reconcile counts and validate campaign variants under time-sensitive conditions.
• Experience working in an agile delivery environment using Jira and Confluence.
• Ability to provide accurate estimates, maintain clear project status, and identify risks early.
