Job description

We are looking for a Senior Data Automation Engineer to join the Experience League Strategic Technology & Data Management team. In this role, you will investigate and document customer data sources and build agentic AI-powered workflows that streamline reporting, governance, and data validation for post-sales marketing and reporting operations. You will work closely with data engineering, analyst, marketing operations, platform, and marketing business teams to ensure that the right data reaches the right systems - reliably, accurately, and at scale.

This is a high-impact individual contributor role for someone who is energized by building clean, scalable data systems and who thrives in a collaborative, fast-moving environment.

What you'll do

  • Explore and profile customer datasets to identify, evaluate, and document data sources, accelerating their ingestion into our Customer Data Foundation for use in customer learning initiatives.
  • Design and build scalable ETL/ELT pipelines that ingest, transform, and deliver data across Adobe Experience League's MarTech platforms (Adobe Analytics, AEM, Marketo, AEP, and internal systems).
  • Develop and maintain automation workflows that reduce manual data handling, accelerate analysis efforts, and improve data quality across the marketing tech stack.
  • Partner with marketing, content, and analytics partners to translate business requirements into robust data engineering solutions.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of experience in data engineering, data automation, or a related field with a strong emphasis on automation and system development.
  • BS/MS or equivalent experience in Computer Science, Data Engineering, Information Systems, or equivalent practical experience required
  • Proficiency in Python and SQL; experience building production-grade data pipelines using tools such as Apache Airflow, dbt, or equivalent orchestration frameworks.
  • Experience working with cloud data platforms (Snowflake, Databricks, or AEP) and understanding of data modeling methodologies.
  • Ability to translate loosely defined marketing and business needs into well-scoped technical requirements and reliable data pipelines.
  • Demonstrated experience building or working with agentic AI frameworks (e.g., LangChain, AutoGen, CrewAI) or LLM-powered automation tools to drive workflow efficiency.
  • Strong communication skills with the ability to work effectively across marketing, engineering, and analytics teams.
