Associate Client Integration Engineer

Company description

Welcome to Our World 
We’ve been leading the charge in the affiliate industry from day one—establishing performance marketing and paving the way for future innovations. We're known for maintaining one of the largest, most reliable partnership platforms with impeccable, personalized service. 
 
Founded in Santa Barbara, California in 1998, CJ (formerly Commission Junction) stands as the most trusted name in performance marketing. We specialize in building partnerships between top brands and reputable publishers to drive revenue and business growth. CJ’s industry-leading solutions make us the platform of choice for over 3,800 global brands across sectors like retail, travel, finance, technology, and home services. As part of Publicis Groupe, our savvy data capabilities, cutting-edge tech, and strategic expertise facilitate genuine connections, allowing brands to reach consumers wherever they are. 
 
A Quick Peek at Affiliate Marketing 
Think back to your last online purchase. Did an influencer tip you off about a great product and offer a discount? Or perhaps you relied on a trusted review site to make your decision? Whatever path you took, affiliate publishers likely played a role by influencing, informing, or helping you find the best deal. CJ connects brands with these publishers, creating valuable resources for shoppers like you. 

Overview

The Associate Client Integration Engineer is the primary technical resource who works cross-functionally and with clients to demonstrate the value of CJ’s products and provide guidance on the product roadmap. It is a unique hybrid role that combines aspects of a web technologist, business analyst, and solutions architect. 

The CJ Associate Client Integration Engineer leverages their technical capabilities and knowledge of the CJ platform to design and deliver actionable strategies and solutions, helping to achieve our clients’ digital marketing objectives. This includes integrating new clients onto the CJ platform, managing the technical relationship with existing clients, implementing new platform capabilities, driving automation initiatives, and providing technical support. 

This is not a “behind the scenes” role. You will work directly on large-scale client projects and with our cross-functional teams. You will be involved in many stages of the client lifecycle, from onboarding to ongoing client support. As a stakeholder or leader on departmental projects, you will contribute to organizational goals.

• Help clients onboard onto the CJ platform based on their business requirements and technical specifications.
• Consult and assist clients while they adopt and interact with CJ technology.
• Test and validate new integration deployments using standardized QA procedures.
• Assist other CJ stakeholder teams by determining campaign needs and technical requirements.
• Debug and troubleshoot technical setups, including tag managers and e-commerce plugins
• Protect company revenue by advising clients to use our most robust solutions and adopt best practices.
• Adopt and promote CJ’s best-in-class technologies in an ever-changing user experience landscape.
• Participate in ongoing professional development and technical training as new technologies are developed and presented.
• Work collaboratively with peers and other cross-functional teams. 
• Organize and lead client calls to review documentation, clarify tag requirements, and troubleshoot tag functionality.
• Contribute to CJ organization goals through yearly project work.

Qualifications

Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s degree required; Computer Science preferred.
• 0-2 years of experience with web applications or strong technical background. 
• Strong understanding of programming concepts, including object-oriented programming.
• Familiarity with browser developer tools, including Network logs, Console, and cookies.
• Motivated to learn new front-end and back-end technologies and skills.
• Familiarity with marketing technologies (Google Tag Manager, Shopify) is a plus.
• Fundamental knowledge of JavaScript and SQL is a plus.
• Solid oral and written communication skills
• Detail-oriented and a self-starter.

This is a hybrid role requiring 3 days a week in office.
