• 3+ years of hands‑on Salesforce development experience.
• Solid experience with Salesforce CPQ or Revenue Cloud.
• Salesforce certifications:
  • Platform Developer
  • Platform Administrator
  • Platform App Builder
  • 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.
