Job description

Overview

Great opportunity for a Salesforce Developer who’s already dipped their toes into architectural work and fancies stepping up properly into an Architect role. You’ll join a team that’s big on best practice, clean design, and giving people room to grow. Expect plenty of ownership, support, and interesting challenges across a broad Salesforce estate.

What you’ll be doing

• Shaping technical solutions across the Salesforce platform, guiding design decisions and ensuring everything fits together neatly.
• Working closely with stakeholders to translate business needs into scalable Salesforce architecture.
• Getting hands‑on with development when needed, especially on trickier bits of CPQ/Revenue Cloud.
• Leading technical discussions and offering direction to developers and admins.
• Supporting integration work using tools like MuleSoft or Jitterbit.
• Helping to define standards, improve processes, and push continuous improvement across the platform.
• Strong, well‑rounded Salesforce product knowledge.
• 3+ years of hands‑on Salesforce development experience.
• Solid experience with Salesforce CPQ or Revenue Cloud.
• Salesforce certifications:
• Platform Developer
• Platform Administrator
• Agentforce Specialist
• Comfortable working with enterprise integration tools (Jitterbit, MuleSoft, etc.).
• Some exposure to architectural responsibilities — e.g. solution design, technical documentation, or owning end‑to‑end features.

Nice to have

• Experience in multi‑cloud Salesforce environments.
• Exposure to enterprise‑scale programmes or complex data models.
• Knowledge of CI/CD tooling and DevOps practices.

What’s in it for you

• Genuine progression into a full Salesforce Architect remit.
• Chance to influence technical strategy and play a key part in long‑term platform evolution.
• Supportive team, solid training, and access to further certifications.
