The mission of this full-time position is to design, develop, implement, and maintain Salesforce solutions within the organization. You will work closely with leadership to understand business requirements, customize, and configure Salesforce to meet those needs, and ensure the platform's optimal functionality. Using a technical background, excellent problem-solving skills, and a deep understanding of Salesforce platform capabilities, you will support the needs of the organization's Salesforce development needs.

Customize Salesforce Platform: This involves tailoring the Salesforce platform to suit the specific needs of your business. It includes tasks like setting up different sections within Salesforce, creating specific data fields to capture relevant information, setting up automated workflows to streamline processes, ensuring data entered meets certain criteria, and creating approval processes for various actions.

Develop Custom Solutions: Sometimes the standard features of Salesforce might not be enough to meet your business requirements. In such cases, custom solutions need to be developed using programming languages like Apex and Visualforce. This could involve creating new functionalities, interfaces, or automation processes unique to your business needs. (using SOQL, Apex, Visualforce, Lightning Web Components Framework, and other Salesforce development tools)

Integrate Salesforce with Other Systems: Often, businesses use multiple software systems to manage different aspects of their operations. Integrating Salesforce with these other systems allows for seamless communication and sharing of data between them. This can involve using APIs (Application Programming Interfaces), web services, or middleware tools to facilitate this communication.

Test Salesforce Solutions: Before implementing any changes or new developments in Salesforce, thorough testing is necessary to ensure that everything works as intended. This involves creating and executing test plans to check the quality, performance, and scalability of the Salesforce solutions.

Manage Deployment Process: Once changes or new developments have been thoroughly tested and approved, they need to be deployed to the live environment. This process involves moving the changes or developments from a testing environment to the live environment while ensuring that nothing breaks in the process. (including migration of metadata and code between environments using Salesforce DX, Ant scripts, or other deployment tools.)

Create Technical Documentation: Documenting the changes, developments, and integrations made in Salesforce is crucial for future reference and understanding. This includes creating design specifications, mapping out how data flows between systems, and diagramming the overall system architecture.

Cross Team & Client Collaboration: Technology is always evolving, and it's important to keep up with the latest updates, best practices, and emerging technologies in the Salesforce ecosystem. This involves staying informed on updates that would affect workflows for the team and the clientele.
