Job Description & How to Apply Below

Our clients don’t come to us because they need code. They come to us because they need someone who can understand their business, solve complex problems, and help them make smart technology decisions.

This role focuses on a variety of platforms across the wider CRM space. If you are looking for a Salesforce-specific role, please check out our open Salesforce position .

As a Technical Solution Lead, you’ll bridge the gap between business and technology, partnering with clients, Project Managers, and developers to design solutions that deliver real results.

You’ll serve as both a technical consultant and business analyst, translating client needs into scalable solutions, configuring and improving CRM systems and processes. You’ll directly engage with our nonprofit clients, providing expert guidance and support for their CRMs.

This is a full-time, fully remote position. You’ll be a great fit if you have CRM and technical expertise, strong business analysis skills, a proactive approach to client engagement, and a genuine desire to help clients make a difference. You should also be someone who enjoys learning in motion – the kind of person who doesn’t panic when they’re “building the boat while sailing it.”

You’re comfortable being in front of a client while still learning, asking the right questions, following your instincts, and figuring things out as you go.
