Resume and experience

Senior Eloqua contractor for teams that need it to work

I design and deliver Oracle Eloqua implementations, integrations, campaign systems and operational guardrails for enterprise B2B teams. When your stack is fragile, your sync is noisy, or delivery is slow, I bring it back under control.

Experience

15+ years

Focus

Eloqua + CRM

Coverage

Global teams

I work best where the stakes are real: complex sales teams, multiple countries, multiple product lines, and workflows that cannot break. I build systems that keep working when marketing is under pressure.

What you get when you hire me

Not a generic “Eloqua resource”. You get someone who can diagnose root causes, build robust patterns, and leave your team with a cleaner system than you started with. I am direct, fast, and careful with data.

Architecture

Stable foundations

  • Program and campaign design patterns that scale
  • Clean naming, templates, governance and guardrails
  • Segmentation that holds up across markets and teams
  • Deliverability hygiene and practical fixes

Integration

CRM sync that behaves

  • Salesforce mapping, routing and lifecycle control
  • Rules to stop duplicates and noisy sync loops
  • Form capture design that produces usable leads
  • Attribution setup, UTM discipline and reporting hooks

Delivery

Campaigns shipped on time

  • Operational playbooks and triage routines
  • Multi-language / multi-region build systems
  • Reusable templates and modules for speed
  • Training so your team stays independent
