You'll spearhead critical Go-To-Market initiatives, drive complex implementations, and build enterprise-scale solutions that directly impact revenue operations.
As a key member of our Salesforce GTM engineering team, you'll bridge the gap between cutting-edge technology and business strategy, working directly with executive leadership to shape how we sell, price, and deliver our products. This isn't just a development role; you'll be a technical leader, mentor, and strategic partner who owns the full lifecycle of mission-critical Salesforce implementations.

Partner closely with business leaders to understand strategic goals and translate them into actionable technical roadmaps
Act as technical expert and mentor for the Salesforce GTM engineering team, coordinating activities and elevating team capabilities
Coordinate complex technical projects from conception to delivery, managing dependencies and ensuring successful outcomes
Apply sound technical judgment in determining when to leverage commoditized platforms versus building custom solutions
What You’ll Bring
6+ years of hands-on Salesforce development experience with deep expertise in Apex, Process Automation, Lightning Web Components (LWC), and SOQL
5+ years building enterprise-grade applications with custom application development using modern frameworks
Proven experience in architecture, design, and implementation of high-complexity projects for Sales Cloud, CPQ, Service Cloud Console, and related systems
Strong background in developing secure solutions that leverage native Salesforce practices for data protection and compliance
Hands-on experience with CI/CD pipelines, Salesforce DX (SFDX), and deployment tools such as Gearset and Copado
Proven track record designing and scaling enterprise systems that handle high-volume operations
Technical Excellence:
Strong commitment to writing clean, testable, and maintainable code with focus on building scalable, resilient systems
Excellent communication skills for translating complex technical concepts to business stakeholders
Passionate about mentoring team members and driving a culture of technical excellence and knowledge sharing
Preferred Qualifications:
