CDP currently provides more than 230 NPR and PBS public media organizations (PMO’s) with outsourced marketing, data analytics, fundraising, and technology services.

Position Overview

The Senior Data Marketing Solution Analyst builds and improves scalable omni-channel marketing data models, metadata frameworks, and process automations driven by marketing strategy and service requirements. This role’s work includes identifying opportunities to enhance existing model efficiency and design, test and implement new models that support evolving and growing CDP marketing strategy for the MSB Cooperative, AAP and Partner Services.

Key Responsibilities:

• Translate marketing strategy, fundraising, and audience selection and segmentation requirements into reusable SQL code and components in Snowflake.
• Identify, develop and maintain workflow-based automations for repetitive, manual, high-volume, or error-prone processes involving data preparation, quality control, file generation and handling, and analysis, reducing manual effort without sacrificing data quality or operational controls.
• Design validation, exception handling, monitoring, alerts, and recovery procedures so automated processes remain reliable and supportable after implementation.
• Partner with service owners and business stakeholders to define data requirements, business rules, success measures, and acceptance criteria for new or enhanced models.
• Manage assigned data projects from discovery through implementation by defining scope, work plans, milestones, dependencies, risks, decisions, testing activities, and status communications, while coordinating across BDO, Marketing Strategy, Service Teams, Fundraising OPS, Tech Solutions, and other partners to keep initiatives aligned and moving forward.
• Explore unfamiliar datasets, identify appropriate tables and fields, and determine how data sources relate before developing outputs.
• Evaluate query logic and results for accuracy, completeness, consistency, and alignment with documented business rules; troubleshoot discrepancies by tracing query steps, comparing source records, and identifying likely causes.
• Assess query performance and make improvements to filters, joins, calculations, and query structure; escalation platform or pipeline issues when appropriate.
• Document reusable data sources, assumptions, query logic, business definitions, validation steps, known limitations and implementation decisions so work can be reviewed and reused.
• Communicate findings, risks, and data limitations clearly to marketing, operations, quality, and technical partners.

Essential Functions

• 40%: Data marketing model and framework development - design, test, document, and implement SQL-based models in Snowflake supporting audience selection, segmentation, quality control, reporting, reconciliation, and marketing operations needs across the MSB coop, AAP, and Partner Services.
