  • Write meaningful Apex unit tests and Jest tests for LWC, assertions that verify behavior, not coverage padding to clear the 75% floor.
  • Participate fully in Agile ceremonies: backlog grooming, estimation, sprint planning, daily standups, demos, and retrospectives with government product owners in the room.
  • Partner with solution architects, business analysts, testers, and release engineers; translate user stories into technical design and flag ambiguity before the sprint, not during it.

  • Lightning Web Component development with solid modern JavaScript fundamentals (ES6+, promises, async/await, DOM); Aura exposure is a plus for legacy support.
  • Working command of the Salesforce data and security model: objects and relationships, record types, profiles and permission sets, org-wide defaults, sharing rules and apex sharing, and field-level security.
  • Declarative automation depth; Flow in its current forms and the judgment to choose configuration over code and defend that choice.
  • Integration experience with REST/JSON APIs, OAuth 2.0 and JWT bearer flows, and Named Credentials.
