Job description

Sweet James Accident Attorneys is a rapidly growing, AI-powered personal injury firm based in Orange County, CA. In less than a decade, we've built a nationally recognized brand and a proprietary AI and automation stack that make us one of the largest and most efficient providers of legal services in the country. Our growth runs on a culture of excellence, compassion, and results: Our team is committed to exceptional client experience and to supporting one another in a fast-paced, collaborative environment. We invest in our people, encourage professional growth, and provide meaningful opportunities to build rewarding careers while making a real impact in our clients' lives.

The role

Technology is how we practice law, not a department beside it. We have built a highly automated, AI-forward experience for every client-facing role, from intake to settlement, and it is one of the leading examples of applied AI in the legal field: Our case teams run at a fraction of the headcount our largest peers need for the same work. The systems behind that result are built in-house, and you will be one of the people building them.

Sweet James is seeking a Salesforce Developer to build and maintain the automations, screens, and integrations our case teams use every day. Our firm runs on Salesforce: Every case, from the first phone call to the final settlement check, lives in Litify, the legal case-management platform built on Salesforce.

Litify is the system of record the firm's AI runs on, so your work is its plumbing. You will own your areas from request through release (e.g., task automation, retainer agreements signed through DocuSign, case management, fee splits, settlements) and connect them to the AI engineering team's systems.

Responsibilities

• Build: Write and maintain Apex classes and triggers, Flows, and Lightning Web Components on Litify.
• Deliver: Work Jira tickets from intake, case management, and accounting, scoped with the Senior Salesforce Developer, and turn them into small, well-tested changes. Fix the bugs staff report in your areas.
• Release: Work in sandboxes, commit through Git pull requests, and move changes through our Salesforce DevOps Center pipeline.
• Integrate: Build and support the connections between Salesforce and the firm's AI tools (e.g., REST APIs, platform events).
• Secure: Respect profiles, permission sets, and sharing rules, and handle client and medical information safely.

Qualifications

Required:

• Experience: 3 to 5 years of Salesforce development on a production org.
• Certification: Salesforce Platform Developer I, or equivalent hands-on experience.
• Data and security model: Working command of objects, profiles, permission sets, sharing, and governor limits.
• Release discipline: Git and a sandbox-based release process.
• Communication: The ability to explain your work to staff who are not technical.

Preferred:

• Certification: Salesforce Platform Developer II.
• Domain systems: Litify or another legal case-management system; DocuSign for Salesforce.
• Tooling: Salesforce CLI and CI/CD tools (e.g., Salesforce DevOps Center, GitHub, GitHub Actions).
• Industry: Law firm, insurance, or healthcare.
