About Salesforce

Salesforce is the #1 AI CRM, where humans with agents drive customer success together. Here, ambition meets action. Tech meets trust. And innovation isn’t a buzzword — it’s a way of life. The world of work as we know it is changing and we're looking for Trailblazers who are passionate about bettering business and the world through AI, driving innovation, and keeping Salesforce's core values at the heart of it all.

Ready to level-up your career at the company leading workforce transformation in the agentic era? You’re in the right place! Agentforce is the future of AI, and you are the future of Salesforce.

Our most senior technical voice on Data 360 in EMEA — a Field CTO who's deep enough on the Salesforce Platform (CTA-caliber) and modern data platforms to architect with any customer's Chief Architect, and who teaches Sales, Consulting, and even our own senior architects the how and why of Data 360. Data-first, but fluent in headless and agentic AI. Senior, sales-driven, C-level-credible, and enthusiastic on stage.

• Fluent in headless architecture and AI-driven agents (MCP, A2A) — always applied through a data-first lens

3. Reference Architecture & Technical GTM

• Build reference architectures and technical GTM narratives ahead of new offering launches
• Package deal experience into playbooks the wider architect community can reuse
