Salesforce Architect

Role Overview We are looking for a seasoned Salesforce Solution Architect with a decade or more of hands-on platform experience to lead and deliver complex, enterprise-grade Salesforce development projects. The ideal candidate brings authoritative technical depth, a strong track record of designing secure and scalable architectures, and the ability to own solutions end-to-end across multi-phase engagements.

Key Responsibilities

Architect and deliver end-to-end Salesforce solutions spanning data modelling, API design, authentication/security layers, and UI development

Lead technical discovery, solution design, and effort estimation for complex platform initiatives

Design and enforce robust data security models including field-level scoping, sharing rules, and JWT-based authentication flows

Develop and review Apex services, REST API endpoints, and Visualforce/LWC components with a focus on security and performance

Architect versioned JSON schema layers and metadata-driven mapping frameworks for dynamic data capture and routing

Define and implement Salesforce Metadata API integrations, conditional logic engines, and DML-based response routing

Establish and govern testing strategies targeting high Apex code coverage and end-to-end regression integrity

Own deployment planning, production cutover runbooks, and hypercare stabilisation

Mentor junior and mid-level developers, setting technical standards and conducting code reviews

Communicate complex technical designs clearly to both engineering teams and senior business stakeholders

Required Skills & Experience

10+ years of Salesforce development experience, with significant tenure in Solution Architect or Principal Developer roles

Expert-level proficiency in Apex, SOQL, REST APIs, and the Salesforce security model (sharing rules, FLS, without sharing contexts)

Deep experience designing multi-tenant or multi-business-unit Salesforce architectures with strict data isolation requirements

Extensive work with Salesforce Metadata API for dynamic object and field discovery

Proven ability to architect, refactor, and modernise Visualforce-based UIs and complex form/workflow systems

Expert understanding of JWT authentication patterns and API security enforcement at scale

Strong background in versioned schema design, JSON-based configuration layers, and backward compatibility management

Mature testing practices covering Apex unit tests, integration tests, and UAT coordination

Excellent documentation, estimation, and stakeholder communication skills
