Job description
Lead Salesforce Developer
We are looking for a highly skilled Lead Salesforce Developer to thrive as part of a small team. Your primary focus will be hands-on, mission-critical development, leveraging your mastery of the Apex programming language. You will be responsible for the "heavy lifting" — writing high-quality, bulkified Apex, developing Lightning Web Components (LWC), and ensuring the technical health of our Salesforce platform alongside your teammate.
Key Responsibilities
- Apex-First Development: Write clean, well-tested, and bulkified Apex code for complex business logic, triggers, and controllers, prioritizing performance and maintainability.
- Component Building: Develop and maintain responsive user interfaces using Lightning Web Components (LWC).
- Solution Implementation: Collaborate on the design and implement scalable, well-architected solutions that utilize both programmatic and declarative features.
- Platform Governance: Enforce coding standards, manage metadata, and actively participate in DevOps processes (Git, CI/CD) with team members.
- System Integration: Implement robust integrations between Salesforce and our external tech stack using APIs and middleware.
- Data Strategy: Maintain data integrity and security models (Shield/Sharing) to ensure the system remains performant as we scale.
Requirements
- Experience: 8–12+ years in the Salesforce ecosystem, with a deep focus on hands-on development.
- Certifications: Platform Developer II is required. Application or System Architect certification is a plus.
- Apex Mastery: Deep expertise in programmatic Salesforce, including Triggers, Controllers, Asynchronous Apex, and comprehensive Unit Testing.
- LWC Expertise: Proven ability to build complex, responsive user interfaces using Lightning Web Components (LWC).
- Declarative Excellence: Expert understanding of the Salesforce platform, knowing precisely when to utilize Flow versus custom Apex code for maintainability.
- Integrations: Expert knowledge of implementing integrations using REST/SOAP APIs, JSON, and OAuth.
- Security: Advanced understanding of the Salesforce Sharing Model, Profiles, Permission Sets, and Field Level Security as they pertain to code security.
- Collaboration & Shared Ownership: A proven ability to work effectively on a small, high-output team, sharing responsibilities and maintaining code quality standards across the team.
- Pragmatism: You build for 2 years from now, not 20 years from now. You value speed-to-market without sacrificing system health.
- Communication: The ability to clearly articulate technical solutions and challenges, including explaining technical debt to stakeholders and defining requirements within the team.
