Job description

About the company

The company’s mission is to create reliable, interpretable, and steerable AI systems. We want AI to be safe and beneficial for our users and for society as a whole. Our team is a quickly growing group of committed researchers, engineers, policy experts, and business leaders working together to build beneficial AI systems.

About the role

As a Salesforce Developer at the company, you will design, build, and maintain the Salesforce platform that powers our Partnerships business: deal registration, partner attribution, co‑sell, and cloud marketplace operations. You'll work both autonomously and collaboratively across Revenue Operations, Partnerships, and Finance to translate partner‑channel requirements into scalable Apex, Flow, and integration solutions. We are an AI‑first systems team, and you'll be expected to use Claude and our in‑house AI development tooling as a core part of how you write, review, and ship code, always against our house standards for flexibility, maintainability, and scale.

Key responsibilities

• Design and build Partnerships infrastructure in Salesforce, including deal registration workflows, channel‑conflict detection, partner attribution, and partner account hierarchy
• Develop and maintain Apex (triggers, services, selectors, batch/queueable), Lightning Web Components, and Flow automation following our house Apex standards and trigger framework
• Build and own integrations between Salesforce and partner‑ecosystem systems such as cloud marketplaces (AWS, GCP, Azure), PRM tools, and middleware
• Configure partner‑facing portals with appropriate sharing, visibility, and license‑model design
• Use Claude and our internal AI development tooling as a first‑class part of your build and code‑review workflow
• Partner with Revenue Operations analysts to ensure data‑model decisions support downstream partner performance reporting
• Partner with DevOps on release management for your work: sandbox strategy, source control, peer review, and deployment via SFDX/metadata tooling
• Ensure appropriate controls, test coverage, and documentation are in place for an effective control environment
• Operate with ambiguity in a rapidly changing business, resolve problems independently, and propose solutions that scale

Minimum qualifications

• Hands‑on Salesforce development experience (Apex, SOQL, LWC, Flow) in a production org
• Experience building or maintaining partner/channel functionality in Salesforce: deal registration, partner portals, attribution models, or co‑sell opportunity management
• Experience integrating Salesforce with external platforms via REST/Bulk APIs, middleware (Workato, Mulesoft, or similar), or direct callouts
• Fluency with SFDX, source‑controlled metadata, and a sandbox‑to‑prod release process with peer review
• Active use of AI‑assisted development tools (Claude, Copilot, Cursor, or similar) as part of how you write and review code, and the ability to speak to how you steer and verify their output
• Basic SQL skills and comfort working alongside a data warehouse
• Effective communication with sales, partnerships, finance, and engineering stakeholders

Preferred qualifications

• 5+ years of hands‑on Salesforce development experience
• Salesforce Platform Developer I and II certifications
• Advanced Administrator or Application/System Architect certification
• Deep understanding of Salesforce platform constraints: governor limits, bulkification, sharing and visibility, recursion control
• Cloud‑marketplace integration experience (AWS, GCP, Azure)
• Familiarity with partner‑specific integration platforms such as Workspan
• Proven experience scaling Salesforce in a high‑growth GTM environment

Compensation

The annual salary range for this role is $220,000 — $270,000 USD. (For sales roles, this range includes both the sales commissions/sales bonuses target and annual base salary.)

Logistics

Minimum education: Bachelor’s degree or an equivalent combination of education, training, and/or experience

Required field of study: A field relevant to the role as demonstrated through coursework, training, or professional experience

Minimum years of experience: Years of experience required will correlate with the internal job level requirements for the position

Location‑based hybrid policy: Currently, we expect all staff to be in one of our offices at least 25% of the time. However, some roles may require more time in our offices.

Visa sponsorship: We do sponsor visas! However, we aren't able to successfully sponsor visas for every role and every candidate. But if we make you an offer, we will make every reasonable effort to get you a visa, and we retain an immigration lawyer to help with this.

How we’re different

We believe that the highest‑impact AI research will be big science. At the company we work as a single cohesive team on just a few large‑scale research efforts. And we value impact — advancing our long‑term goals of steerable, trustworthy AI — rather than work on smaller and more specific puzzles. We view AI research as an empirical science, which has as much in common with physics and biology as with traditional efforts in computer science. We’re an extremely collaborative group, and we host frequent research discussions.
