About Salesforce

Salesforce is the #1 AI CRM, where humans with agents drive customer success together. Here, ambition meets action. Tech meets trust. And innovation isn’t a buzzword — it’s a way of life. The world of work as we know it is changing and we're looking for Trailblazers who are passionate about bettering business and the world through AI, driving innovation, and keeping Salesforce's core values at the heart of it all.

Ready to level-up your career at the company leading workforce transformation in the agentic era? You’re in the right place! Agentforce is the future of AI, and you are the future of Salesforce.

The Experience
Location — Bellevue or Seattle, WA

Salesforce is looking for a Director of Enablement Engineering who is as comfortable managing a high-performing team as they are live in front of a room full of engineers. This role leads the Enablement Engineering team within Technology, People, Innovation & Learning (TPIL), reporting to the Senior Director of TPIL Learning, and is central to driving Salesforce's AI adoption journey across the Technology & Products (T&P) organization.
This is a player-coach role. You'll set the vision and direction for the team, develop and grow your engineers, and still roll up your sleeves to build and facilitate world-class technical enablement yourself. You know how to lead, but you haven't lost the hands-on instincts that made you good at this work.
What You'll Actually Be Doing

  • Lead, coach, and develop a team of Enablement Engineers — setting clear expectations, providing regular feedback, supporting career growth and fostering a collaborative, high-standards team culture
  • Drive team priorities and workload planning in alignment with broader T&P learning strategy and represent the team and its impact with senior stakeholders
  • Partner with the Senior Director of TPIL Learning to shape the enablement engineering strategy and roadmap.
  • Develop and facilitate live and virtual technical enablement sessions for Salesforce engineers and technical audiences — making complex AI and platform concepts accessible and actionable.

You're Our Person If...

  • You have proven experience leading and managing technical teams — you know how to hire well, develop people, and build a team that does their best work.
  • You have hands-on software engineering experience — you write code, not just read it. Proficiency in at least one language (Python, JavaScript, Java, or similar) is required.
  • You have solid understanding of software development fundamentals: version control (Git), application programming interfaces (APIs), debugging, and the software development life cycle (SDLC).
  • You have proven experience presenting and facilitating to technical audiences — you're energized by a room, not intimidated by it. You are comfortable setting up and troubleshooting technical environments on the fly and able to translate complex technical concepts into clear, engaging, audience-appropriate content.

Even Better If...

  • You have experience with Salesforce platform development (Apex, Lightning Web Components (LWC), Flow, or similar).
  • You have familiarity with AI/ML concepts and hands-on experience working with AI tools — prompt engineering, large language models (LLMs), Agentforce, or Copilot.
  • You have a background in developer relations, technical training, or solutions engineering.
  • You can build and maintain demo environments, sandboxes, and code samples that support live facilitation.

Unleash Your Potential

When you join Salesforce, you’ll be limitless in all areas of your life. Our benefits and resources support you to find balance and be your best, and our AI agents accelerate your impact so you can do your best. Together, we’ll bring the power of Agentforce to organizations of all sizes and deliver amazing experiences that customers love. Apply today to not only shape the future — but to redefine what’s possible — for yourself, for AI, and the world.

Posting Statement

Salesforce is an equal opportunity employer and maintains a policy of non-discrimination with all employees and applicants for employment. What does that mean exactly? It means that at Salesforce, we believe in equality for all. And we believe we can lead the path to equality in part by creating a workplace that’s inclusive, and free from discrimination.

This policy applies to current and prospective employees, no matter where they are in their Salesforce employment journey. It also applies to recruiting, hiring, job assignment, compensation, promotion, benefits, training, assessment of job performance, discipline, termination, and everything in between. Recruiting, hiring, and promotion decisions at Salesforce are fair and based on merit. The same goes for compensation, benefits, promotions, transfers, reduction in workforce, recall, training, and education.

In the United States, compensation offered will be determined by factors such as location, job level, job-related knowledge, skills, and experience. Certain roles may be eligible for incentive compensation, equity, and benefits. Salesforce offers a variety of benefits to help you live well including: time off programs, medical, dental, vision, mental health support, paid parental leave, life and disability insurance, 401(k), and an employee stock purchasing program.

At Salesforce, we believe in equitable compensation practices that reflect the dynamic nature of labor markets across various regions. The typical base salary range for this position is $171,200 - $273,000 annually. The range represents base salary only, and does not include company bonus, incentive for sales roles, equity or benefits, as applicable.
