Salesforce integration architect

Salesforce Integration Architect - Houston, TX iSphere is looking for a Salesforce Integration Architect for a long-term hybrid opportunity in Houston. Candidates need to live in the Houston area. This one is all about integrations. The client needs someone who can look at a pretty complicated Salesforce environment, understand how all the pieces need to talk to each other, and design interfaces that are reliable, scalable, and not held together by wishful thinking. Utilities Cloud experience would be ideal, but the bigger requirement is deep Salesforce architecture experience across Sales Cloud, Marketing Cloud, and complex enterprise integrations. You will work with business teams, application owners, developers, architects, and outside vendors to define integration strategy, design interfaces, and make sure data moves cleanly between Salesforce and the rest of the enterprise. What we need: Strong Salesforce architecture experience Deep integration architecture experience in complex enterprise environments Salesforce Utilities Cloud experience highly preferred Strong Sales Cloud experience Strong Marketing Cloud experience Experience designing complex interfaces between Salesforce and external systems Strong API and integration design experience Experience defining integration patterns, data flows, error handling, security, and scalability Ability to work across business and technical teams and translate requirements into workable architecture Experience providing technical direction to development teams and reviewing solution designs Experience with MuleSoft, REST/SOAP APIs, event-driven integrations, middleware, or other enterprise integration platforms would definitely get our attention. The client is not looking for someone who only knows how to configure Salesforce. They need someone who can step back, understand the larger technology landscape, and design how Salesforce fits into it without creating another integration mess everyone regrets later. If you have spent years designing Salesforce integrations and can move comfortably between architecture, APIs, business processes, and delivery teams, we should talk.
