A Senior Salesforce Data Engineer works across teams to design, develop, and support scalable, secure, and reliable data solutions on the Salesforce platform and connected enterprise systems. This role provides technical leadership for complex initiatives, drives sound architecture and data model decisions, and owns the solutions they build from design through operation. In addition to delivering high-quality migration, transformation, integration, and quality solutions, they proactively simplify data flows, reduce technical debt, improve platform health, strengthen observability, and elevate engineering practices across the team.
What You'll Do- Lead the design, development, and ongoing stewardship of advanced Salesforce data solutions, ensuring scalability, reliability, security, performance, and integrity.
- Plan for complex initiatives spanning Salesforce and connected enterprise systems, translating business needs into resilient architectures, data flows, and implementation plans that balance delivery speed with long-term maintainability.

- Lead delivery and support integrations between Salesforce and external systems, including third-party applications and enterprise data platforms, with attention to performance, failure handling, reconciliation, observability, and supportability.
- Build and maintain synchronous and asynchronous data migration, transformation, enrichment, and validation processes that support business-critical Salesforce capabilities.
- Drive platform modernization by identifying technical debt, recommending architectural improvements, strengthening data quality controls, and proposing Salesforce platform enhancements where they create clear value.
- Partner closely with product, business stakeholders, engineers, analysts, QA, data warehouse and data quality teams to shape solution direction, proactively surface risks and dependencies, and ensure successful delivery of complex data initiatives.
- Create and maintain technical documentation that explains data models, system relationships, data flows, dependencies, operational considerations, and support procedures.
- Mentor other engineers and administrators through technical guidance, design reviews, code and automation reviews, and knowledge sharing, helping raise engineering quality and consistency across the team.
What You'll Bring- 6+ years of experience in enterprise data engineering, Salesforce engineering, system administration, or a closely related field, contributing to technical design, delivery planning, release readiness, quality gates, documentation, and engineering best practices within Agile or similar software delivery models.
