Job Details

About the Role

You are the builder. Production delivery is your job. The pod exists to go fast and go deep.
Salesforce is hiring Solution Builders — senior individual contributors who are the technical engine of a 2-person delivery pod. You partner with a Director who owns strategy and customer relationships; you own the build. You design and deploy production-grade agentic AI systems directly at customer sites, working hands-on every day. No overhead, no managing other builders — just you, your pod partner, and the work in front of you.
This is a hands-on IC delivery role. Your output is working software in production at the customer.

What You'll Do
Build & Deploy (Primary Focus)
  • Architect, build, and deploy production-grade Agentforce and agentic AI solutions end-to-end — this is your core job

  • Design and implement AI agents, multi-agent orchestration, agentic workflows, and the integration patterns that hold up in enterprise environments

  • Own data pipelines, system integrations, and production AI infrastructure across Salesforce, Snowflake, Databricks, and customer platforms

  • Build rapidly from ambiguous requirements — prototype to validate, then engineer to last

  • Resolve complex technical blockers: data integration failures, orchestration breakdowns, model deployment issues

  • Drive solutions from first commit through production handoff and active customer consumption

Pod Partnership with Director
  • Operate as the technical execution half of a 2-person pod — the Director shapes what gets built and why; you own how it gets built and make sure it ships

  • Translate strategy and customer context from the Director into concrete technical decisions and daily delivery progress

  • Communicate blockers, risks, and architecture tradeoffs clearly and early so the pod stays in sync

  • Represent technical depth in customer-facing sessions — architecture reviews, demos, working sessions, production readouts

  • Flag patterns, gaps, and opportunities you see in the field back to the Director and to Agentforce product teams

Customer Engagement
  • Embed directly with customer engineering and data teams — not remotely, not occasionally, but as a consistent presence

  • Build trust with customer technical counterparts through delivery quality and technical credibility, not just relationship management

  • Guide customer teams through the technical decisions required to operationalize AI at scale

  • Surface expansion signals and customer feedback to the Director

  • Contribute reusable patterns, reference implementations, and field insights back to the broader Builder org

Craft & Continuous Growth
  • Stay sharp on Agentforce platform evolution, agentic delivery patterns, LLM advances, and the competitive AI landscape

  • Codify what you learn — reusable components, playbooks, and lessons from the field that raise the bar for the whole org

  • Bring a growth mindset to hard problems: when something breaks or doesn't work, you dig in rather than escalate

What You Bring
Required
  • 4–8+ years of software engineering, AI delivery, or technical consulting, with hands-on ownership of production systems (Builder: 4–6 years; Senior Builder: 6–8+ years)

  • Proven track record building and shipping production software — not prototypes, not demos, but systems that run in the real world

  • Hands-on LLM integration experience: agent frameworks (LangChain, LlamaIndex, or equivalent), prompt engineering, and responsible AI practices in production

  • Fluency in Python, JavaScript/TypeScript, Java, or Apex — and the range to add to that list as the work demands

  • Deep experience in data modeling, APIs, and integration patterns — able to design them, not just consume them

  • Ability to work autonomously in ambiguous, fast-moving customer environments with real delivery accountability

  • Strong enough communication skills to engage technical stakeholders and explain architecture decisions clearly

  • Ability to operate effectively as the sole builder in a small, high-trust pod

  • Willingness to travel ~25% of the time, working directly at customer sites

Preferred
  • Salesforce platform expertise: Agentforce, Apex, LWC, Data Cloud, Salesforce APIs

  • Salesforce certifications (Platform Developer I/II, Agentforce Specialist, System Architect)

  • Experience with cloud data platforms (Snowflake, Databricks, BigQuery)

  • Prior experience in forward-deployed engineering, consulting, or professional services

  • Familiarity with DevOps/CI-CD, observability tooling, or data governance frameworks
