You should have a passion for scalable solutions, high quality user experiences, CI/CD, and understanding where the border of Salesforce ends and other toolchains begin. You will collaborate with the Salesforce Administrators and various stakeholders to gather requirements, architect, and build solutions, as well as support and improve existing configurations.

Collaborate deeply with Product Management and the business to define the last mile of technical execution on requests – this is not a role where the full design spec has been completed before it gets to you, you must be able to communicate and collaborate directly with technical and non-technical stakeholders.
Continuously improve the developer experience, including improving our CI/CD process and mentoring junior developers on best practices.
Develop, execute, and resolve test plans, integration testing and user acceptance testing – this is a forward deployed role that will participate directly with rolling out functionality.
Create and maintain technical documentation and development patterns.
Strive towards coding best practices and design patterns to create optimum applications developed on the Salesforce platform.
Assist with system integrations of third-party tools associated with Salesforce, such as DocuSign and Conga Orchestrate.
Debug and resolve production issues.
Work collaboratively with other team members to customize, develop, design, document and manage ongoing system enhancements.
Work on a diverse set of special projects ranging from unique multi-system client onboarding buildouts to corporate data reporting and visualization.
