Job Description

Position Overview
The AJO Lead Technical Consultant is a specialized Adobe Journey Optimizer expert responsible for designing, implementing, and validating orchestrated customer journeys that connect real-time data, decisioning logic, and content activation across channels.

This role sits at the intersection of AEP, RTCDP, identity, event modeling, segmentation, and message orchestration — bringing use cases to life through production-grade journey configuration inside AJO.

You will work closely with Enterprise Architects, AEP/RTCDP consultants, strategists, and Adobe teams to ensure that journeys are scalable, data-driven, compliant, and aligned to business outcomes.

Key Responsibilities
AJO Journey Implementation

  • Build and configure cross-channel journeys, including triggers, events, decision nodes, rules, conditions, and throttling logic.
  • Implement real-time, event-triggered workflows tied to identity and profile attributes.
  • Configure message templates, content fragments, offers, and personalization elements.
  • Validate journey paths, decisioning accuracy, and end-to-end orchestration performance.

Data & Decisioning Integration

  • Ensure AJO journey logic aligns with RTCDP segments, AEP datasets, and event schemas.
  • Validate AEP event datasets (timestamp, identity, eventType, schema mapping) used as AJO triggers.
  • Connect consent logic, suppression rules, and business constraints to journey decisioning.
  • Utilize AEP Query Service to test journeys, preview events, and validate audience eligibility.

Cross-Channel Activation

  • Configure email, push, SMS, in-app, and custom-channel actions.
  • Maintain content-to-data alignment via metadata from AEM Assets where applicable.
  • Manage channel-level constraints (frequency caps, quiet hours, channel eligibility).

Use Case Realization

  • Translate journey strategy and business requirements into technical designs.
  • Build operational workflows connecting:
    Events → Profiles → Segments → Journeys → Messaging → Reporting.
  • Ensure journey activation supports downstream analytics in CJA.

Quality, Governance & Testing

  • Conduct QA on journeys: event triggers, identity matches, profile states, eligibility, fallback logic, and message rendering.
  • Validate consent and governance rules inside journey logic.
  • Identify risks tied to latency, event volume, identity stitching, or profile completeness.
  • Document configuration, runbooks, and deployment guides.

Collaboration & Delivery

  • Partner with:
    • Enterprise Architects (design + data governance)
    • RTCDP Consultants (segments + identities)
    • AEP Consultants (schemas + datasets)
    • CJA Consultants (measurement + validation)
    • Client marketing/CRM teams
  • Provide hands-on support during sprints and UAT cycles.

Required Skills & Experience
Platform Expertise

  • AJO (core)
  • AEP/RTCDP integration
  • CJA for journey measurement
  • AEM Assets (content metadata dependencies)

Data Expertise

  • Event-based triggers
  • Decisioning rules & orchestration logic
  • Identity mappings (ECIDs, CRM IDs, cross-device identifiers)
  • Consent & governance models

Solution Expertise

  • End-to-end experience with journey orchestration, including:
    • Building triggers
    • Configuring actions
    • Setting up rules & constraints
    • Validation & QA
  • Exposure to AEP Query Service for event verification and audience testing

Preferred Experience

  • Multi-channel messaging systems
