• Manage integrations and third-party applications (e.g., CPQ, telephony, integration tools, marketing automation).
• Support governance processes, change control, and system optimization.
• Act as technical lead on strategic projects, ensuring timely delivery and clear communication.

What We’re Looking For

• Strong Salesforce expertise with at least 3 years of hands-on development experience, including CPQ or Revenue Cloud.
• Deep understanding of both declarative and programmatic capabilities.
• Proven experience designing solutions for complex business processes and integrated landscapes.
• Salesforce certifications (Platform Developer, Administrator, App Builder essential; additional certs desirable).
• Experience with enterprise integration tools (e.g., Jitterbit, MuleSoft).
• Excellent stakeholder management and communication skills.
• A proactive, collaborative mindset with strong problem-solving abilities.

Desirable Skills

• Experience with advanced Salesforce products (e.g., Experience Cloud, OmniStudio, Data Cloud).
• Familiarity with Agile delivery tools (JIRA, Confluence).
• Coaching and mentoring experience.
• Additional Salesforce certifications (e.g., Developer II, Sales/Service Cloud Consultant).

Why Apply?

• Join a forward-thinking organisation that values creativity, collaboration, and continuous improvement.
• Work on challenging, impactful projects that shape the future of customer experience.
• Enjoy a culture that supports professional growth and innovation.
