About Salesforce

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 Data & AI Cloud Technical Architect is a pre-sales, customer-facing enterprise domain expert who combines deep data platform knowledge with broad technical skills, industry acumen, and business strategy savvy. This specialist role sits at the intersection of modern data architecture and AI — helping customers navigate their most complex data and AI challenges, from unified data platforms and lake houses to agentic AI systems and LLM-powered applications.
The Data and AI Technical Architect is a subject matter expert in one or more of the following areas:
data architecture & engineering, data lakehouse & cloud warehouse platforms, enterprise data management, identity resolution, machine learning & AI, integration, cloud computing, security, application architecture, analytics, and agentic AI
. With a solid blend of technical depth and consultative skill, this role uses a structured discovery approach to uncover business and technical requirements — and translate them into winning architectures.
This architect brings a broad background spanning cloud data platforms, data engineering, ML, and solution architecture. They lead key technical and business discussions around enterprise data and AI programs — from strategy through architecture to deployment — and determine which technologies and patterns best serve the customer's goals, drawing on deep platform knowledge, industry experience, and cloud-native best practices.
The Data & AI Cloud Technical Architect also helps sales teams develop specific, repeatable propositions and go-to-market strategies. They participate in delivering solution best practices, reference architectures, enablement sessions, and industry summits for customers, partners, and internal audiences.

- Strong SQL skills and comfort with data modeling across structured, semi-structured, and unstructured data; familiarity with dbt or Spark a plus
- Familiarity with ML fundamentals: feature engineering, model training pipelines, inference patterns, and vector/embedding-based retrieval
- Practical experience with agentic AI or generative AI — built something with LLMs or agents, whether in production, a POC, or a side project
- Comfortable using AI coding tools (Copilot, Cursor, Claude Code, or similar) to build prototypes and demos quickly;
Python proficiency strongly preferred
Cloud & Engineering
- Deep knowledge of enterprise data platforms and cloud architectures (AWS, GCP, or Azure — including data services, networking, identity, and governance)
- Data management fundamentals: data modeling, MDM, identity resolution, data quality, governance, and lineage
- Integration principles: APIs, event streaming (Kafka/Pub-Sub), ETL/ELT patterns
- Process orchestration and automation
- Principles of network, application, and information security
- Willingness to work with code (Python, SQL, JavaScript, Java, or similar)
Communication, Consulting & Logistics
- Ability to translate complex business and technical requirements into a compelling solution narrative — for executive, technical, and business audiences
- Strategic problem solver and thought leader; comfortable at the C-suite level
- Strong written, verbal, and presentation skills
- Excellent time management…
