The role involves hands‑on development to enhance operational efficiency and create a unified workspace for these functional teams.

As a Salesforce Developer, the work you’ll do at GDIT will be impactful to the mission of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). You will play a crucial role in supporting state Medicaid agencies' program integrity efforts as a member of the MII team.

• Design and implement a tailored Salesforce workspace to support event management workflows, expense submission, tracking, approvals, and reporting functions.
• Gather and refine requirements from business stakeholders and translate them into scalable technical solutions.
• Integrate Salesforce with external systems and tools as required, following GDIT integration standards and API best practices.
• Ensure platform stability by troubleshooting issues, conducting root cause analysis, and providing ongoing enhancements.
• Implement Salesforce security models, including profiles, permission sets, and field‑level security, to support user roles and data access needs.
• Follow Agile development practices, participating in sprints, backlog grooming, testing, and deployments.
• Contribute to documentation, training materials, and change management to support user adoption.

WHAT YOU’LL NEED TO SUCCEED:

• Bachelor’s degree in computer science, information systems, or related field; equivalent experience accepted.
• 3–5+ years of hands‑on Salesforce development experience.
• Experience designing user‑centric solutions to support business processes and workflow optimization.
• Strong understanding of Salesforce development lifecycle, version control, and deployment strategies.
• Hands‑on experience with Salesforce Experience Cloud, Service Cloud, or custom application development.
• Familiarity with CI/CD tools and DevOps practices (such as Copado, Gearset, or Salesforce DX).

DESIRED QUALIFICATIONS AND EXPERIENCE:

• Salesforce Platform Developer II, Salesforce Administrator, or other relevant Salesforce certifications.
• Experience supporting event management, expense processing, or related operational workflows.
• Experience with Salesforce Flow, Apex, Lightning Web Components (LWC), and API integrations.
• Knowledge of data modeling, data migration, and data quality best practices within Salesforce.
• Strong analytical skills with the ability to translate complex business needs into clear technical solutions.
• Excellent communication skills and the ability to collaborate with cross‑functional and non‑technical stakeholders.

The likely salary range for this position is $93,500 - $126,500. This is not, however, a guarantee of compensation or salary. Rather, salary will be set based on experience, geographic location and possibly contractual requirements and could fall outside of this range.
