• You will lead the CRM data migration approach from legacy platforms, ensuring data readiness, business validation, reconciliation, and cutover alignment for phased global rollout.

• You will guide architecture choices that support high‑volume data, performance, scalability, sharing, visibility, and long‑term platform maintainability.
• You will provide the data foundation for AI‑enabled CRM use cases, including Einstein and future Agentforce scenarios, by ensuring customer and commercial data is unified, trusted, and governed.
• You will lead data architecture workshops with business, IT, enterprise architecture, product, analytics, implementation partner, and regional rollout teams to validate requirements and decisions.
• You will communicate architecture recommendations, roadmap implications, risks, trade‑offs, and investment considerations to business and IT stakeholders.

Your expertise

• Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience is required, a degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Data Science, Engineering, or a related field is preferred. 8–10 years of experience in data architecture, data engineering, enterprise data management, or CRM data architecture roles within complex global environments.
• Strong background in enterprise data architecture, CRM data structures, master data concepts, data quality management, and governance frameworks.
• Practical Salesforce Data Cloud experience across data ingestion, harmonization, identity resolution, profile unification, segmentation, and activation use cases.
• Experience working with enterprise data platforms such as Snowflake, TrueFoundry, or BigQuery and connecting them to CRM, analytics, or customer data ecosystems.
• Proven ability to deliver governed analytics using Tableau, Tableau Next, CRM Analytics, or comparable BI platforms in enterprise environments.
• Expert‑level SQL and practical experience with ETL/ELT design, batch and streaming ingestion, data transformation, and performance optimization at enterprise scale.
• Track record of contributing to complex CRM or enterprise data migrations from legacy systems into modern cloud platforms.
• Working knowledge of data protection, information security, regulated data handling, and compliance expectations such as HIPAA and GDPR.
• Excellent communication, stakeholder engagement, analytical problem‑solving, and executive‑level storytelling skills, with the ability to make complex data topics clear and actionable.
