About The Position

We are seeking a detail-oriented and dependable Salesforce Administrator to join the NinjaTrader Business Solutions team. You'll own the day-to-day administration and declarative configuration of our Salesforce org, managing users and access, building and maintaining flows, layouts, and list views, keeping our data clean, and resolving the requests that keep the platform running smoothly for teams across the company. You'll partner with analysts, developers, and stakeholders throughout the organization: confirming requirements before you build, delivering clean and well-documented configuration, flagging blockers early, and escalating the ambiguous or complex work with the context others need to move it forward. This is a hands-on role for someone early in their Salesforce career who takes full ownership of their work, follows through reliably, and is eager to master the platform and grow into progressively harder problems.

Requirements

1-3 years of hands-on Salesforce administration experience, or equivalent platform exposure
Working proficiency with the core declarative toolset: users and permission sets, page layouts and record pages, list views, Flows, and validation rules
Familiarity with data-management tools such as Data Loader, and comfort with import/export and basic data cleanup
A foundational understanding of the Salesforce security model — profiles, permission sets, and record access/visibility
Ability to build and maintain basic reports and dashboards
Strong attention to detail and a habit of documenting your work so nothing gets dropped
Clear communication and a reliable, follow-through-oriented approach; comfortable asking clarifying questions and flagging blockers early
A genuine drive to continually learn and grow your Salesforce knowledge and capabilities
BA or BS in a related field preferred

Nice To Haves

Salesforce Administrator (ADM-201) certification preferred or in progress, not required
Familiarity with change management and source control, including testing and deploying through sandboxes, change sets, or DevOps tools such as Gearset, SFDX CLI, or Git, a plus
Prior experience with finance or financial markets a plus

Responsibilities

Administer users, licenses, permission sets, and profiles, making sure the right people have the right access and that changes are made cleanly and on time
Build and maintain declarative configuration: Custom Objects, Lightning record pages, page layouts, list views, Flows, and validation rules, with strong attention to detail
Work the day-to-day admin request queue, confirming requirements before building, communicating status, and closing the loop with stakeholders
Import, export, and maintain data using Data Loader and related tools, supporting data quality and integrity across the org
Build and maintain reports and dashboards that give teams clear visibility into their data
Keep the org clean and well-governed, documenting your changes, maintaining ticket hygiene, and following sandbox and deployment practices
Diagnose routine issues, ask clarifying questions, and escalate ambiguous or complex problems to analysts and developers with the context they need to help
Partner with analysts and developers to turn requirements into sound solutions, contributing to working sessions and flagging risks early
Continually grow your platform knowledge, learning the org's data model, security and sharing model, and automation and take on increasingly complex admin work as you do
