Description
The Salesforce Architecture Program is a strategic program dedicated to the success of architects. Architects are the trusted advisors and technical leaders who design and build complex, transformative solutions for our customers. Our mission is to empower, inspire, and enable the global architect community – from aspiring professionals to seasoned Salesforce Architects and Enterprise Architects at the world's largest companies.
The Salesforce Architecture Program includes the Well-Architected Framework that provides best practices, and patterns architects need to build trusted, scalable, and resilient solutions. We engage with the community to understand their needs, amplify best practices through compelling content and events, and establish a feedback loop that channels their input directly into the development and evolution of the Salesforce platform.
Who You Are:
You're an experienced Salesforce technical architect with a passion for architectural excellence, knowledge sharing, and community engagement. You never stop learning and are among the first to supplement your Salesforce Core Platform knowledge with the latest on Agentforce, Data 360 and other innovations. You think in terms of systems, patterns, and long-term value. You have a knack for translating complex technical concepts into clear, engaging, and actionable guidance. You can switch from whiteboarding an integration approach to writing a blog post to presenting to a large audience, or facilitating a feedback session with senior technologists. You thrive on connecting with people, understanding their challenges, and helping them succeed.
