About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Design and build complex Salesforce solutions using Apex (classes, triggers, batch, async), Lightning Web Components (LWC), and declarative tooling (Flow, custom metadata).
Own the full development lifecycle: requirements analysis, technical design, code review, testing, and production deployment through sandbox environments using Salesforce CLI and SFDX.
Establish and enforce coding standards, test coverage requirements, and architectural best practices across the Salesforce platform.
Lead technical design reviews and contribute to a culture of engineering excellence on the BizTech team.
Build and maintain Data Cloud (Data 360) data streams, data model objects (DMOs), calculated insights, and activation targets to support unified customer profiles.
Develop and configure Agentforce agents, Einstein AI features, and prompt templates to automate workflows and enhance the seller and support experience.
Collaborate with data engineering teams to integrate Salesforce with external data lakes (Databricks) using SQL, REST/SOAP APIs, and MuleSoft or direct connectors.
Write and optimize SQL queries for data validation, exploration, and pipeline debugging across Databricks and Salesforce Data Cloud.
Manage the full deployment lifecycle across scratch orgs, sandboxes (dev, QA, staging, UAT), and production using Salesforce DX, SFDX CLI, and source-driven development workflows.
Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Bitbucket, Jenkins, Coapdo, Gearset or equivalent) for automated testing, static analysis (PMD/ESLint), and deployment gating.
Champion version control best practices: branching strategy, pull request reviews, and release management in Git.
Comfortable operating in a terminal environment; able to script and automate routine tasks using shell, Python, or Node.js.
Design and implement integrations between Salesforce and external platforms including NetSuite, Workday, Clari, Certinia, and MuleSoft.
Evaluate and recommend platform architecture decisions, balancing declarative vs. programmatic approaches for scalability, performance, and maintainability.
Maintain data integrity, governor limit awareness, and security best practices (sharing rules, field-level security, platform encryption) across all solutions.
Partner with business stakeholders, product owners, and business analysts to translate complex requirements into technical specifications.
Conduct code reviews and provide constructive, educational feedback to developers and admins.
Develop and maintain technical documentation for system architecture, integration patterns, and deployment runbooks.

Requirements

What you’ll need

Able to work in a hybrid/on-site capacity at our headquarters in Columbia MD.
5+ years of hands-on Salesforce development experience in an enterprise environment.
Expert-level proficiency in Apex (asynchronous patterns, governor limits, test-driven development) and Lightning Web Components (LWC).
Strong working knowledge of Salesforce Data Cloud / Data 360: data streams, DMOs, identity resolution, segments, and activations.
Hands-on experience with Salesforce CLI (SFDX), source-driven development, and managing deployments through multiple sandbox environments to production.
Practical experience building or maintaining CI/CD pipelines for Salesforce (GitHub Actions, Bitbucket Pipelines, Jenkins, Gearset, Copado, or similar).
Proficiency in SQL; experience working with data lake platforms such as Databricks, Snowflake, or similar for data exploration, validation, and integration.
Comfortable operating in a terminal/CLI environment; able to read, write, and debug shell commands and scripts independently.
Familiarity with Agentforce, Einstein AI features, or prompt-based automation within the Salesforce platform.
Excellent communication skills; able to translate technical concepts for non-technical stakeholders and lead design discussions with peers.
Self-directed with a strong ownership mindset — you drive initiatives to completion without needing hand-holding.
Exposure to AI-assisted development tooling (e.g., Claude Code, GitHub Copilot) and comfort integrating these into daily workflows.
May perform other duties and responsibilities that management may deem necessary from time to time.
This position is US-based only.
