*
* Job Summary:

** We are looking for a hands-on Sr. Solution Architect to lead the design and delivery of Salesforce solutions across
** Sales Cloud, Revenue Cloud**, and Agentforce, with deep ownership of the Lead-to-Quote process. This is a
** builder role**: you will provide both strategic architectural leadership and hands-on technical guidance, building scalable solutions using a mix of Salesforce (Sales Cloud, Revenue Cloud, CPQ) and custom AI agents (
** Agentforce and Claude**) to enhance quoting accuracy, accelerate deal approvals, and ensure compliance. You'll bring an
** AI-first mindset**, leveraging AI and Agentic AI technologies alongside modern engineering practices — including hands-on use of
** Cursor for AI-assisted development
** to accelerate delivery and elevate solution quality across the team, while actively participating in technical reviews and complex problem-solving aligned to enterprise standards and best practices.  
*
* Key Responsibilities:

*
* * Own end-to-end architecture and delivery of scalable Salesforce solutions across Sales Cloud, Revenue Cloud / CPQ — spanning the full Lead-to-Quote lifecycle — through architectural designs, prototypes, and proof-of-concepts, demonstrating solution functionality to business stakeholders.
* Translate ambiguous business requirements into clear, well-architected technical designs — data model, automation, integration patterns, and UX — that scale across the organization.
* Design and build custom
** Agentforce agents
** as well as custom agents built directly on
** Claude**.
* Lead discovery and requirements-gathering workshops to gather, define, and document current and future state business processes and functional requirements for Sales Cloud and Revenue Cloud — delivering compelling presentations, architectural blueprint documents, environment management plans, and development policies that influence project strategy and lead business stakeholders through solution design.
* Use
** Cursor and other AI-assisted development tools
** as a standard part of the build process, and help raise the bar on engineering velocity and code quality across the team.
* Define and coordinate SIT/UAT test plans for Lead-to-Quote and CPQ workflows; support enablement, admin guides, and training materials.
* Ensure solutions align with enterprise standards and compliance requirements (e.g., SOX) and support downstream reporting and audit needs.
* Collaborate with integration/middleware teams to define patterns connecting Salesforce with ERP and other downstream systems.
* Partner with cross-functional stakeholders (Sales, Deal Desk, Channel, IT) to prioritize and sequence the Salesforce roadmap.
* Implement Design Registration workflows to support distributor/partner-led deal identification, approval, and protection — ensuring channel deals follow pre-defined approval paths and pricing rules.
