Who You AreYou're a Senior Salesforce admin who ships fast and ships clean. You're deeply fluent in Flow and Salesforce configuration, and you treat speed and rigor as one skill: you build quickly because you test, document and release with discipline, so changes stick and scale. You've made AI part of your daily craft: drafting and troubleshooting automation, untangling messy configuration, writing the documentation nobody has time for, and you know when its output needs a human check. You take ownership of your work from first request to post-release, and your changes enable hundreds of users to move faster.
What You’ll DoBuild and maintain the Flows and Salesforce configuration our go-to-market teams run on, including automation, fields, record types, validation rules, permissions and reports.
Turn requests from the business into scoped and tested changes, and release them safely from sandbox to production.
Keep our core integrations running smoothly, including Chili Piper, LeanData, Intercom and Gong, and troubleshoot them when they don't.
Diagnose production issues to the root cause and fix them for good, not just for today.
Keep the platform healthy by improving data quality, retiring unused automation and fields, and documenting what you build.
Use AI in your daily work to build, test and document faster, and help the SysOps team find more ways to do the same.
Work as part of a close SysOps team alongside the other admins, developers and our Solution Architect.
4+ years administering Salesforce, with deep hands-on experience building and maintaining production Flows.
A solid grasp of Salesforce security and access: permission sets, profiles, roles and sharing.
Experience releasing changes through sandboxes with testing and documentation. Familiarity with a deployment tool like Gearset is a plus.
A track record of daily AI use in your work (e.g., Claude, ChatGPT), with concrete examples of what it changed and the value it delivered for the teams you support.
Experience improving data quality, speed or process in a go-to-market system, ideally with lead routing, assignment or similar automation.
Experience working with integrations such as Chili Piper, LeanData, Intercom, Gong or comparable tools.
Salesforce Administrator certification required. Advanced Administrator preferred.
Nice to have: Experience with Salesforce Sales Engagement cadences, SOQL and Salesforce CLI, and familiarity with Apex.
