Role: Salesforce Developer (Lead)

Location:-NYC.NY ( Hybrid role Duration: 6 months Video then in-person interview

Job Description This role requires strong systems thinking, product-mindedness, and technical leadership–not just hands-on development. The ideal candidate is comfortable operating in ambiguous environments, leading distributed teams, and making pragmatic trade-offs that balance user needs, scalability, and delivery velocity.

Responsibilities
  • Own the technical direction and system design of Salesforce solutions end-to-end.
  • Translate ambiguous business goals into clear, scalable technical approaches.
  • Partner closely with product and business stakeholders to shape requirements and solution direction.
  • Lead and mentor offshore and distributed Salesforce developers.
  • Establish and enforce technical standards, code quality, and architectural consistency.
  • Review designs and implementations with an eye toward long-term maintainability and system health.
  • Identify risks early and drive pragmatic mitigation strategies.
  • Remain hands-on as needed to unblock delivery or prove patterns.
What Success Looks Like
  • Salesforce solutions are durable, understandable, and evolvable.
  • Strict adherence to our operational rhythm and meeting hygiene.
  • Offshore teams operate with clarity, autonomy, and accountability.
  • Stakeholders trust technical recommendations and tradeoff decisions.
  • Delivery is predictable without sacrificing system integrity.
  • Complexity is actively reduced, not accumulated.
Required Experience
  • Significant experience designing and delivering Salesforce solutions at scale.
  • Demonstrated ownership of Salesforce system architecture (not just feature delivery).
  • Experience leading offshore and/or distributed development teams.
  • Strong ability to reason about tradeoffs across performance, scalability, usability, and time-to-market.
  • Comfort working with incomplete or evolving requirements.
  • Clear, concise communication with both technical and non-technical audiences.
Preferred Profile
  • Product-minded engineer who thinks in terms of user outcomes and system impact.
  • Independent, self-directed, and comfortable making decisions.
  • Experience working as an independent consultant, technical lead, and/or consultant.
  • Pragmatic approach to architecture—knows when to go deep and when to keep things simple.
  • Platform Developer I, Platform Developer II, and Architecture certifications.
