Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Configure with Strategy: Go beyond basic setup to execute sophisticated system configurations that align with a client’s long-term operational goals. You don’t just build what is asked; you build what makes sense for the business.
  • Master the Toolset: Serve as the primary technical specialist for Workfront, focusing on deep-tier settings, custom forms, and complex project templates while ensuring they support a scalable, high-level strategy.
  • Contribute to Solution Design: Partner with the Lead Architect to vet technical blueprints. You will provide "boots-on-the-ground" insights to ensure that strategic designs are technically viable and sustainable.
  • Integrate with Intent: Support seamless connections between platforms designing workflows that support meaningful business reporting and cross-functional visibility.
  • Optimize & Troubleshoot: Act as the lead for technical problem-solving, resolving complex logic issues while proactively identifying "quick wins" to streamline existing client workflows.
  • Develop Toward Architecture: Use this role as a springboard toward an Architect career path by actively participating in high-level solutioning and learning to translate business "pains" into technical "gains."
  • Be Accountable and Responsible: Build the Engine: Execute the detailed technical setup that allows our clients to scale, ensuring every configuration is durable, logical, and future-proof.
  • Strategic Documentation: Create and maintain technical "as-built" documentation that explains not just the configuration, but the business logic and strategy behind the setup.
  • Maintain Technical Standards: Ensure all work meets the team’s "gold standard" for delivery, focusing on clean logic and repeatable patterns that reduce technical debt.
  • Support Discovery: Assist in technical audits by facilitating discovery and/or gathering system data and identifying where current-state configurations may be hindering a client’s strategic growth.

Requirements

  • Technical Expertise: 5+ years of experience in Martech or Marketing Operations, with at least 3 years of hands-on technical configuration in Workfront or similar enterprise-level SaaS.
  • Education: Bachelor’s degree preferred, or equivalent professional experience.
  • Strategic Problem-Solving: A proven ability to look at a technical request and understand its impact on the wider ecosystem. You can identify when a configuration might solve a short-term problem but create a long-term bottleneck.
  • Configuration Mastery: Deep knowledge of Workfront objects, logic, and layout templates. You are comfortable building complex, logic-based workflows that solve real-world business challenges.
  • Integration Skills: Proven experience working with integration platforms (Workfront Fusion, Workato, etc.) and an understanding of API structures.
  • Communication Skills: Ability to explain the strategic "value" of a technical configuration to both the Lead Architect and non-technical stakeholders.

Preferred

  • Bachelor’s degree preferred
  • Experience with integration platforms (Workfront Fusion, Workato, etc.) and an understanding of API structures.
