About the Role

The Velocity business unit is a fast-moving, start-up-like organization within the greater PTC ecosystem. We support the Onshape and Arena businesses and are building a modern, scalable enterprise back-office centered on Salesforce and cloud-based technologies.

We are hiring a Salesforce Developer who is hands-on with Salesforce development and eager to grow as an engineer. This role is not a Salesforce Administrator position. The successful candidate will be actively writing code, building Lightning components, developing Flows, and supporting integrations under the guidance of senior Salesforce engineers and architects.

This is a hybrid role based in Boston, MA, and regular in-office presence is required to support collaboration, mentorship, and team engagement.

Key Responsibilities (Developer-Focused)

• Collaborate with Business Analysts and stakeholders across Sales, Customer Success, and Customer Operations to refine requirements, and design, develop, test, and release new features.
• Develop and enhance Salesforce functionality using Apex, Salesforce Flow, Lightning Web Components (LWC), and SOQL
• Actively contribute production code under the guidance of senior developers and architects
• Build and modify Lightning Web Components (LWC) using Salesforce Lightning Design System (SLDS)
• Implement Flow-first automation (record-triggered, screen, and auto-launched flows)
• Assist with Salesforce integrations using REST APIs, JSON, and Salesforce-native integration tools
• Debug and resolve issues related to Apex code, Flows, LWCs, and data integrity
• Participate in code reviews, following established development standards and best practices
• Contribute code through Git-based source control and support deployments using CI/CD pipelines
• Support testing efforts including unit tests, regression testing, and UAT preparation
• Provide technical support and “how-to” assistance related to developed features and enhancements

Required Skills & Experience (Strictly Developer-Oriented)

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Engineering, or equivalent practical experience
• 1–3 years of hands-on Salesforce development experience
• Demonstrated experience writing:
• Apex classes and/or triggers: (or other programming languages) (We value aptitude more than direct experience. If you are programming‑savvy and have limited exposure to Apex, we still encourage you to apply.)
• SOQL queries
• Lightning Web Components (LWC)
• Experience building Salesforce Flows (preferred over Workflow Rules / Process Builder)
• Solid understanding of Salesforce data model and security fundamentals, including profiles, permission sets, and basic sharing concepts.
• Experience working in sandbox environments and supporting deployments to higher environments
• Familiarity with Git-based source control and collaborative development workflows
• Familiarity with integration authentication methods, such as Named Credentials, is a plus

Nice to Have

• Exposure to Salesforce DX (SFDX) and source-driven development
• Experience with Salesforce CI/CD tools (GitHub Actions, Bitbucket Pipelines, or similar)
• Basic understanding of Salesforce integration patterns and Named Credentials
• Exposure to Salesforce CPQ, Revenue Cloud, or sales operations systems
• Familiarity with Jira or similar agile project management tools

Additional Requirements

• Comfortable engaging with business and non‑technical stakeholders to understand requirements and use cases, with support from Business Analysts
• Strong interest in software development, not just platform configuration
• Ability to clearly explain code and technical decisions
• Willingness to learn enterprise‑scale Salesforce architecture and best practices
• Strong collaboration skills and comfort working in a hybrid, team‑oriented environment
• Attention to code quality, maintainability, and long‑term scalability
• Candidates must be authorized to work in the U.S. without current or future employer-sponsored visa support (including H‑1B)
