The Senior Salesforce Engineer will spend most of their time writing code and be responsible for developing, maintaining, and modernizing an established Salesforce platform supporting live logistics operations. They will work across Lightning Web Components, Aura Components, Visualforce, and Apex Components, confidently navigating complex architectures and tracing issues from the user interface through Apex and integration layers while ensuring reliability and data integrity.

• Core Custom Apps & UI: Build and modernize internal tools used by operations and dispatch. You will deliver new capabilities in Lightning Web Components (LWC) while strategically refactoring legacy Aura Components and Visualforce pages into modern patterns.
• Integrations & APIs: Design, build, andmaintainhigh-throughput integrations. We both consume external services and expose custom Apex REST endpoints for internal systems.
