  • Mentor developers and lead the Architecture Review Board (ARB).  
  • Stay current with Salesforce releases and platform shifts (such as Data Cloud, Agentforce, or CRM Analytics) to continuously modernize the tech stack.  


Required Qualifications:

  • 12+ years of experience in the Salesforce ecosystem, with at least 4+ years acting in a Lead or Technical Architect capacity on enterprise-scale implementations.
  • Deep architectural knowledge of Sales Cloud, Service Cloud (Omni-Channel, Knowledge, Service Console), and Experience Cloud (Portals/Communities).
  • Advanced expertise in programmatic development (Apex, Lightning Web Components - LWC, Visualforce) and declarative development (Flows).
  • Proven experience designing real-time and batch integrations using REST, SOAP, Bulk API, Platform Events, and middleware tools.
  • Strong knowledge of identity management protocols (SAML, OAuth, OpenID), relational data modeling, SOQL/SOSL optimization, and data migration strategies.
