Convert field lessons into durable reusable assets: code, diagrams, checklists, decision trees, implementation notes, and architecture guidance.
Review partner Agentforce architectures for agent design, retrieval strategy, tooling, guardrails, observability, cost, security, and production readiness.
Coach Partner FDEs and architects through design clinics, office hours, portfolio reviews, and targeted technical walkthroughs.
Translate recurring field blockers into clear product and engineering feedback.
Help partners connect technical architecture choices to delivery quality, customer outcomes, and consumption economics.

Requirements

What you’ll need

Experience building with LLMs, agents, RAG, tool use, workflow orchestration, or automation systems.
Comfort debugging agent behavior: traces, logs, failure modes, tool calls, bad context, bad data, latency, and user experience gaps.
Practical understanding of prompt design, retrieval quality, evaluation, hallucination risk, guardrails, and cost/performance trade-offs.
Strong systems thinking across APIs, data flows, identity, security, integration, observability, and operational handoff.
Hands-on Salesforce, Agentforce, Data Cloud, Apex, Flow, LWC, MuleSoft, or multi-cloud architecture experience is preferred.
Salesforce certifications are helpful, but not required if you can demonstrate strong builder evidence and rapid platform learning.
