Job description

Accountabilities

• Salesforce Configuration and Development: Build, configure, and maintain Salesforce functionality using Flows, Validation Rules, Record Types, Page Layouts, and Lightning App Builder, prioritizing out-of-the-box capabilities before introducing custom code.
• Custom Development: Implement, troubleshoot, and extend Apex and Lightning Web Components (LWC) when standard Salesforce functionality cannot meet business requirements, following secure coding standards.
• Integration Support: Develop and maintain integrations using Salesforce-native tools and REST/SOAP APIs, ensuring secure, reliable, and compliant data exchanges.
• Data Management and Security: Maintain the Salesforce data model, permissions, sharing configurations, and field-level security to protect sensitive information and support appropriate access controls.
• Code Quality and Governance: Participate in configuration and code reviews, enforce naming conventions and documentation standards, and maintain consistent version-control practices.
• DevSecOps and Deployment: Support CI/CD pipelines, deployment preparation, metadata integrity, version control, and release coordination across multiple Salesforce environments.
• Troubleshooting and Maintenance: Investigate technical issues, perform root-cause analysis, resolve defects, and support continuous platform improvement.
• Technical Documentation: Create and maintain audit-ready documentation, including flow diagrams, change logs, deployment notes, and configuration records.
• Agile Collaboration: Participate in sprint planning, reviews, and other team ceremonies, provide realistic delivery estimates, and recommend practical solutions aligned with platform capabilities.
• Platform Evolution: Stay informed about Salesforce seasonal releases and new features to identify opportunities for secure, efficient, and maintainable improvements.

Requirements

• Professional Experience: At least 3 years of Salesforce development or configuration experience, ideally supporting Department of Defense, federal government, or other regulated environments.
• Declarative Salesforce Expertise: Hands-on experience with Salesforce Flows, automation, validation rules, layouts, record types, and security configurations.
• Custom Development Knowledge: Familiarity with Apex and Lightning Web Components, including the ability to debug, modify, and extend existing custom logic when required.
• Security and Compliance: Understanding of secure software development practices, environment governance, access controls, and compliance requirements in enterprise or government settings.
• Integration Experience: Familiarity with Salesforce integrations, APIs, and secure data exchange practices.
• Development Lifecycle Tools: Experience with Azure DevOps (ADO) for work management, pipelines, and deployment coordination.
• Technical Adaptability: Ability to evaluate business requirements and identify when declarative tools are preferable to custom development.
• Communication and Collaboration: Strong problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and the ability to work effectively with technical teams and government stakeholders in a structured environment.
• Work Authorization and Clearance: Must be based in the United States, authorized to work in the country, and eligible to obtain a Secret security clearance.

Preferred qualifications:

• Salesforce Platform Developer I, Platform Application Developer, or Salesforce Platform Administrator certification.
• Previous experience in Department of Defense IL4 or IL5 environments.
• Familiarity with DevSecOps practices, CI/CD pipelines, Git-based version control, and metadata deployments.
• Experience working across multiple Salesforce environments.
• Exposure to Salesforce OmniStudio, including OmniScripts, DataRaptors, Integration Procedures, and FlexCards, or comparable declarative frameworks.

Benefits

• Annual salary: $135,000–$140,000, depending on qualifications and relevant experience.
• Remote work: Fully remote position for candidates based in the United States.
• Contract opportunity: Contribute to a mission-critical federal technology program supporting U.S. Army recruiting operations.
• Professional development: Gain experience with enterprise Salesforce architecture, secure cloud platforms, and government technology requirements.
