Salesforce is the #1 AI CRM, where humans with agents drive customer success together. Here, ambition meets action. Tech meets trust. And innovation isn't a buzzword - it's a way of life. The world of work as we know it is changing and we're looking for Trailblazers who are passionate about bettering business and the world through AI, driving innovation, and keeping Salesforce's core values at the heart of it all.

Ready to level‑up your career at the company leading workforce transformation in the agentic era? You're in the right place! Agentforce is the future of AI, and you are the future of Salesforce.

The Salesforce Event Technology team is constantly transforming the company's portfolio of customer‑facing events: from free one‑day World Tours to multi‑day paid events such as Tableau Conference and Dream force. As one unified team we bring technologists, product managers, program managers, insights analysts, and an event‑operations team to plan, build, configure, deploy, and measure technology that powers the event experience – whether it's in‑person or broadcast on Salesforce+.

• Meeting programs (e.g., 1‑on‑1 expert meetings)
• Mobile app experience
• Peer‑to‑peer attendee networking
• Sales team experience
