In this role, you will partner directly with CIOs, CTOs, and Chief Architects at the world’s largest enterprises to help them reimagine their businesses through AI-powered innovation on the Salesforce Platform.

You will drive the architectural vision for how the Salesforce suite is implemented at the most demanding enterprise scale. This is a high-trust, high-impact role shaping the future of how AI transforms customer experience, productivity, and decision-making for global organizations.

You will also help build a global community of enterprise architects, creating alignment across customers, partners, and Salesforce teams around modern architectural patterns and responsible AI adoption.
Key Responsibilities:

  • Serve as a strategic partner to CIOs, CTOs, and Chief Architects at Fortune 1000 companies, helping shape their enterprise transformation through AI and the Salesforce platform.

  • Define scalable architectural patterns for end-to-end implementation of the Salesforce suite, including AI, Data Cloud, Industry Clouds, and integration technologies.

  • Lead architectural modernization efforts, bridging legacy enterprise systems with modern cloud-native infrastructure and AI services.

  • Champion the use of trusted AI to transform workflows, automate decision-making, and personalize enterprise experiences at scale.

  • Establish and grow a global community of Salesforce architects across customers, system integrators (SIs), and ISVs to share best practices, patterns, and platform innovation.

  • Collaborate with Salesforce Product and Engineering teams to influence the platform roadmap based on real-world enterprise needs.

  • Publish architecture blueprints, transformation guides, and reference models that enable repeatable success across verticals.

  • Design and govern Agentforce architectures, including agentic workflow design, multi-agent orchestration, and agent lifecycle management across enterprise deployments.

  • Define AI governance frameworks to ensure responsible, compliant, and auditable AI adoption — including model risk management, bias evaluation, and ethical AI guardrails.

  • Support strategic pre-sales engagements by influencing enterprise architecture decisions and accelerating platform adoption across high-value pursuits.

  • Provide architectural governance and delivery oversight on complex implementations, ensuring alignment to enterprise standards, scalability requirements, and platform best practices.

What We're Looking For:

  • 8+ years of experience in enterprise architecture, platform strategy, or technical advisory roles, with significant focus on cloud transformation and AI integration.

  • Deep expertise in Salesforce architecture, including Agentforce, Data Cloud, Einstein AI, and Industry Cloud implementations at global scale.

  • Track record of executive engagement and influence with C-level leadership at Fortune 1000 companies.

  • Hands-on knowledge of AI/ML technologies, including predictive modeling, LLMs, automation, and ethical AI practices in enterprise settings.

  • Strong understanding of data governance, integration patterns, and multi-org / hybrid cloud architectures.

  • Passion for community-building—mentoring architects, hosting forums, and codifying best practices.

  • Exceptional communication skills and executive presence; able to lead architectural conversations at both strategic and technical levels.

  • Experience with Agentforce and Agent Builder, including designing, deploying, and governing autonomous agents in enterprise environments.

  • Deep industry vertical fluency in one or more sectors (e.g., Financial Services, Retail, Manufacturing, Healthcare) to contextualize architecture recommendations for enterprise customers.

  • Hands-on experience with integration platforms — particularly MuleSoft — and the ability to design robust, scalable data and API strategies across complex enterprise landscapes.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Experience in a consulting, advisory, or CTO/CIO-facing role at a system integrator, platform vendor, or enterprise IT team.

  • Familiarity with enterprise architecture frameworks (e.g., TOGAF, SAFe) and the ability to define and evolve architectural governance frameworks tailored to AI-driven transformation programs.

  • Thought leadership or speaking experience at industry events or Salesforce forums (Dreamforce, World Tour, CTA Summit).
