Salesforce Platform Architect
Category: Information Technology
Employment Type: Direct Hire
Reference: BH-390717
Job Title: Salesforce Platform Architect
Location: Irving, TX (Hybrid - 2 days onsite)
Type: Full Time
Industry: Manufacturing
Our Client is seeking a highly technical Salesforce Platform Architect to serve as the technical owner of our enterprise Salesforce ecosystem. This role is not a hands‑on developer role, but it demands deep technical expertise, the ability to read and review Apex/code, and the leadership to guide and govern solution design, platform scalability, and delivery quality. The ideal candidate comes from a consulting background, has seen multiple Salesforce implementations, and is now seeking long‑term product/platform ownership within a growing organization.
WhatYou'll Do Platform Ownership & Strategy
- Serve as the technical authority and primary Salesforce platform owner across Sales Cloud, Service Cloud, Data Cloud, Experience Cloud, and related integrations.
- Ensure all solutions delivered-internally or via managed services align with platform strategy, scalability, performance, and long‑term maintainability.
- Act as the platform advocate, challenging solutions that are misaligned, overly complex, or not built to scale.
- Partner with the Business Solutions Lead to turn business requirements into vetted, scalable technical designs.
- Oversee and guide Thunder's solution architect, technical lead, and developers, providing architectural direction and being a point of escalation.
- Conduct technical design reviews, Apex/code reviews, and ensure adherence to best practices and Salesforce limits.
- Provide clear architectural choices (Option A vs.
B), articulating impacts to downstream systems, performance, and maintainability.
- Drive throughput and sprint velocity across managed services teams‑your success in the first 30/60/90 days is measured heavily on increasing delivery speed.
- Ensure commitments are met within sprints, remove blockers, and enforce accountability with external teams.
- Help strengthen CICD and environment management without making it the core focus of the role.
- Oversee architectural governance for integrations supporting mobile and web companion apps (React Native front end with Salesforce as backend).
- Ensure integrations are performant, efficient, and do not introduce overly chatty API patterns or strain platform limits.
- Ensure the platform is configured for growth, reliability, and alignment with enterprise strategy.
- Deep technical background with Sales Cloud, Service Cloud, and ideally Data Cloud (willing to learn if not yet hands‑on).
- Strong understanding of Experience Cloud.
- Ability to read and assess Apex, LWC, integration patterns, data model design, asynchronous processing, and platform limits.
- Strong understanding of Salesforce best practices, scalable architecture, and governance.
- Proven experience as a Salesforce Technical Lead, Senior Developer, or Platform Architect.
- Experience overseeing distributed/offshore teams and ensuring quality delivery.
- Ability to drive sprint outcomes, improve throughput, and set engineering standards.
- Strong understanding of CICD concepts (but not required to build pipelines yourself).
