Must Haves:

We are seeking a seasoned professional with deep expertise in architecting Salesforce solutions within complex enterprise environments—ideally with experience in higher education—and a passion for designing scalable, cost-effective solutions on the Salesforce platform.

• Define scalable, enterprise-wide Salesforce data models and a phased CRM architecture roadmap.
• Guide and mentor the Salesforce development team to align with best practices and ensure sustainability and data compliance.
• Collaborate with cross-functional stakeholders and non-Salesforce architects to deliver integrated, cost-efficient, and future-proof solutions.
• Conduct architectural reviews, identify technical risks early, and proactively mitigate delivery risks.
• Contribute to data governance planning in alignment with university data policies.

Nice-to-haves include:

• Experience with Salesforce Data Cloud.
• Salesforce Developer II certification.
