Key Responsibilities

1. Salesforce Administration & Configuration

• Own day-to-day administration of the commercial Salesforce org: user provisioning and deactivation, profiles, permission sets, roles, sharing rules, and license management.

• Configure the declarative layer — objects, fields, record types, page layouts, list views, validation rules, approval processes, and Flow automation — and retire what is no longer used.

• Build and maintain reports and dashboards for field sales, sales leadership, and supporting functions, and keep the underlying report types fit for purpose.

• Manage bulk data operations using Data Loader or equivalent tooling, with a documented backup and rollback step on every load.

• Administer installed packages, integrated applications, and connected systems, and manage seasonal Salesforce releases including impact assessment and regression checks.

• Maintain sandbox strategy and deployment hygiene, moving changes through environments with change sets or the equivalent rather than configuring in production.
   

2. Data Integrity, Territory Alignment & Governance

• Maintain data cleanliness and consistency across accounts, contacts, and hierarchy — deduplication, ownership, field-level standards — and drive remediation when data drifts.

• Execute territory and account alignment changes in Salesforce as the field org, territories, and portfolio change, and reconcile the result against the system of record.

• Develop and maintain the SOPs, naming conventions, and data-governance standards that keep the org from accumulating configuration debt.

• Manage access and security in line with policy, coordinating with IT and the platform team on identity, permissions, and audit requirements.
   

3. Requirements, Delivery & Release Management

• Partner with stakeholders across Sales Operations, Customer Support, Pharma Sequencing, and Commercial Strategy to define requirements, separating the underlying problem from the requested feature.

• Determine whether a request is best solved by configuration, process change, or engineering build — and solve it yourself when it is configuration.

• Translate the remainder into clear, testable user stories and acceptance criteria for the Salesforce engineering team, and act as the primary business point of contact through the build.

• Maintain the intake and backlog for commercial Salesforce work so requests are visible, prioritized, and traceable from ask to release.

• Run User Acceptance Testing end to end: build test scripts, coordinate testers, track defects, and hold the release gate until the solution meets business needs.

• Coordinate release readiness — field communications, cutover steps, and rollback plans — so launches do not surprise the field.
   

4. Enablement, Support & Continuous Improvement

• Serve as first-line support for Salesforce issues from the field and commercial functions, triaging defects from process gaps and resolving or routing each accordingly.

• Develop and deliver training that gets Salesforce users productive on new functionality, tailored to how each team actually works.

• Create and maintain job aids, release notes, and reference documentation users can self-serve from.

• Identify manual and low-value steps in commercial processes and eliminate them through automation or configuration.

• Report on org health, adoption, and request throughput so leadership can see where the systems roadmap is delivering.

• Act as a trusted advisor to commercial stakeholders on what the platform can and cannot do, and set expectations honestly.
   

Qualifications

• BA/BS in Business, Analytics, Information Systems, Finance, Economics, or a related field.

• 4+ years of hands-on Salesforce administration experience, or equivalent experience as a Business Analyst on commercial systems with substantial admin responsibility. Life-science, diagnostics, or healthcare experience preferred.

• Salesforce Administrator certification (ADM-201) required or in progress; Advanced Administrator or Platform App Builder a plus.

• Demonstrated proficiency with declarative configuration: Flow, validation rules, record types, page layouts, permission sets, profiles, and sharing models.

• Experience with Salesforce reports and dashboards, custom report types, and bulk data tools such as Data Loader.

• Working knowledge of sandbox management and deployment practices, including change sets or a comparable release process.

• Experience gathering requirements, writing user stories, and collaborating with technical or offshore engineering teams.

• Familiarity with Salesforce territory management, account hierarchy, and sales alignment concepts; exposure to adjacent platforms such as ServiceNow, Okta, Looker, or Tableau is a plus.

• Strong attention to detail and commitment to accuracy, with the judgment to catch a data or configuration problem before a user does.

• Excellent communication skills, with the ability to interface credibly between technical and non-technical audiences.

• Highly organized and systematic, able to manage multiple concurrent requests and prioritize effectively in a fast-paced environment.
