Role Purpose:
Provide deep technical ownership for Salesforce platform architecture. Define the patterns and guardrails that enable delivery teams to build secure, scalable and maintainable solutions while modernizing the ecosystem across CRM, integration, data, DevOps and AI capabilities.
What You Will Do:
Define platform architecture across Sales Cloud, Service Cloud, CPQ, Experience Cloud where applicable, Apex, LWC and Flow.
Own reference architectures and standards for integration, APIs, events, data, identity, access, security and environment strategy.

Required Qualifications:
10+ years in Salesforce architecture, engineering or enterprise CRM delivery with hands-on technical depth.

Ability to translate complex technical choices into clear guidance for engineers, product teams and business stakeholders.
Preferred Qualifications:
