About the Role

A Salesforce Technical Architect at CloudMasonry is a consulting role tailored for individuals with extensive experience in architecting and developing custom solutions on the Salesforce platform and a proven ability to communicate effectively with technical and non-technical stakeholders and team members. The candidate should be adept at discovering innovative technology solutions to meet client needs efficiently. A commitment to being a self‑motivated learner of new technologies or related skills is essential. Prior hands‑on Salesforce experience is required, and existing Salesforce technical certifications are mandatory. This is a remote position open to candidates who currently live in the United States. We are unable to consider applicants based outside the US.

Key Responsibilities

• Own technical design and delivery for your engagements or workstreams, from discovery through release, either as the lead architect or alongside a Solution Architect
• Design scalable, secure, maintainable solutions using Apex, Lightning Web Components (LWC), Flow, and integrations, preferring configuration and using custom code where it is the better long‑term answer
• Design the integration and data architecture, including API and event‑driven patterns, middleware approach, data migration, and handling of large data volumes
• Turn business requirements and user stories into technical designs and specifications that developers can build from
• Act as a technical advisor to client stakeholders, explaining design trade‑offs, platform constraints, and risks to technical and non‑technical audiences
• Oversee delivery quality through code reviews, design reviews, and development standards, making sure what gets built matches the design
• Own the development lifecycle for your workstreams, including environment strategy, version control, CI/CD (continuous integration and delivery), testing, and deployment
• Give developers and consultants hands‑on technical guidance and mentorship, including troubleshooting and performance tuning
• Work closely with Engagement Managers, Project Managers, Business Analysts, and delivery teams, and actively manage technical risks, assumptions, and dependencies
• Support pre‑sales by scoping technical solutions, estimating effort, and explaining the proposed approach to prospective clients
• Look for ways to improve solution quality, delivery efficiency, and technical standards across engagements
• This role may require 25‑50% travel based on project needs. Candidates should be open to and capable of accommodating this level of travel.

Ideal Candidate Profile

• 5+ years of hands‑on Salesforce development and technical delivery, including 2+ years in a consulting environment; we hire at multiple levels and match scope to experience
• Experience as the technical lead on complex enterprise implementations with multiple business units, stakeholder groups, and connected systems
• Deep expertise in Apex, LWC, and Flow, and good judgment about when to use configuration and when to write code
• Strong understanding of platform limits and performance, including governor limits, asynchronous processing (Batch, Queueable, Platform Events), and large data volumes
• Integration design experience with REST and SOAP APIs, Platform Events, Change Data Capture, and middleware such as MuleSoft or Informatica
• Experience designing Salesforce sharing and security models
• A strong foundation in object‑oriented programming and common design patterns (Apex, Java, Python, or similar), plus working knowledge of relational databases and SQL
• Hands‑on experience with Git‑based source control, Salesforce DX, CI/CD pipelines, and automated testing, including well‑structured Apex unit tests
• Experience working in Agile or Scrum teams
• Strong client‑facing communication skills and confidence leading technical workshops and design reviews
• Familiarity with CRM, ERP, and other common enterprise business applications
