  • Ensure proper use of design patterns, large data volume strategies, and platform limits.
  • Lead and enforce coding standards.
  • Deep‑dive into complex technical issues and support troubleshooting and root‑cause analysis.
• Pre‑Sales & Advisory Support
  • Participate in discovery sessions, technical deep dives, and Proof‑of‑Concept (POC) development as needed.
  • Provide architectural guidance during sales and solutioning phases.
• Delivery & Utilization
  • Travel to client sites as required (estimated 50–75%).
  • Expert‑level knowledge of the Salesforce product suite, including Sales, Service, Experience (Community), industry clouds, and Marketing Cloud.
  • Proven ability to design enterprise‑scale, performance‑optimized, and secure solutions.
  • Strong understanding of:
    • Salesforce data models, sharing, and visibility architectures.
    • Architect and govern solutions to handle large data volumes by proactively designing for Salesforce platform limits, performance optimization, and scalability.
    • Authentication and identity patterns (SAML, SSO, OAuth).
    • Integration strategies using APIs, ETL tools, CPQ, marketing automation, and reporting platforms.
    • Provide architectural oversight for environment management, release orchestration, CI/CD frameworks, and version control strategies, ensuring predictable, enterprise‑scale delivery.
    • Platform security concepts including TLS and SSL.
    • Extensive experience defining enterprise architecture landscapes and delivering target‑state solutions.
    • Strong background in large‑scale web application development or full software lifecycle delivery.
