- Support CJA Consultants to align event and profile datasets for reporting.
- Collaborate with Adobe and client architects to ensure system interoperability.
Quality, Testing & Delivery
- Evaluate ingestion success, data lineage, schema adherence, and governance compliance.
- Conduct QA across segments, identities, profiles, and activation endpoints.
- Identify risks tied to data completeness, identity match rates, or activation discrepancies.
- Produce documentation, mappings, runbooks, and client-facing technical reports.
