Qualifications

• 5+ years of hands-on Salesforce development experience with demonstrated technical leadership.
• Deep expertise in Apex, LWC, Flows, SOQL/SOSL, and Salesforce platform internals.
• Strong experience with MuleSoft or equivalent integration platforms (REST APIs, event-driven architecture, middleware patterns).
• Proven track record in data migration projects — ETL design, transformation logic, reconciliation, and cutover execution.
• Hands-on experience with Salesforce DX, Git, CI/CD pipelines, and DevOps tooling.
• Active daily use of Generative AI and/or Agentic AI tools in a software delivery context.
• Experience in Experience Cloud / Community portals, Service Cloud case management, and workflow automation.
• Salesforce certifications: Platform Developer II (required); Integration Architecture Designer or Data Architecture Designer (strongly preferred)

Responsibilities

• Lead end-to-end Salesforce solution design across Sales Cloud, Service Cloud, Experience Cloud, and custom platform applications.
• Define and enforce coding standards, design patterns, and DevOps best practices (CI/CD via Salesforce DX, Git, and pipeline tooling).
• Conduct architecture reviews, code reviews, and technical grooming sessions to maintain platform health and delivery quality.
• Partner with the Salesforce Architect on platform strategy, org health, and long-term roadmap alignment.
• Design and implement MuleSoft-based integrations connecting Salesforce to enterprise systems including Documentum, Excalibur, SAP, and legacy platforms.
• Build and maintain REST/SOAP APIs, Platform Events, CDC, and middleware orchestration patterns for real-time and batch integration scenarios.
• Lead integration solutioning for complex, multi-system workflows involving case management, document handling, and regulated utility operations.
• Collaborate with MuleSoft Architects to define integration contracts, error handling frameworks, and retry/resilience patterns.
• Own and drive Salesforce data architecture including data modeling, object relationships, and schema governance across multi-org environments.
• Lead data migration efforts from legacy platforms to Salesforce, including transformation logic, data validation, reconciliation, and cutover planning.
• Work with the Enterprise Data Platform (EDP) and Data Cloud teams to design scalable data pipelines, harmonize data structures, and ensure data integrity across systems.
• Define and implement data quality rules, deduplication strategies, and audit-ready data lineage aligned with compliance and regulatory requirements.
• Leverage Agentic AI platforms daily for accelerated story creation, code generation, test automation, and design documentation.
• Apply prompt engineering best practices to ensure AI output quality and story completeness.
• Integrate Salesforce Einstein AI, Agentforce, and GenAI-enabled flows into case management, portal, and automation workflows.
• Champion AI-augmented SDLC practices within the team, mentoring developers on responsible AI usage, code smell detection, and token management.
• Contribute to measurable AI efficiency benchmarks including development velocity gains, BA/QA effort reduction, and sprint throughput improvements.
• Enforce Salesforce platform governance including user access management, permission sets, profiles, and inactive account monitoring.
• Ensure solutions adhere to NERC, utility-sector compliance standards, and audit-ready documentation requirements.
• Support security reviews, vulnerability assessments, and AppExchange product governance.
• Work closely with the Business Analyst/Product Owner to refine epics, user stories, and acceptance criteria — leveraging AI tooling to accelerate story creation by ~50%.
• Lead and mentor a team of Salesforce developers (onshore and offshore), providing day-to-day technical direction and unblocking delivery impediments.
• Participate in Agile ceremonies — sprint planning, backlog grooming, retrospectives — as a key technical voice.
• Coordinate with QA leads to define test strategies, support SIT/UAT, and drive defect resolution below the 5% threshold.
