SENIOR SALESFORCE DEVELOPER
We are seeking a Senior Salesforce Developer to join our engineering team to help build best-in-class services for our financial advisors. We use Salesforce to power the “people” side of our platform and do this in a highly automated, digital way.
The Senior Salesforce Developer will work directly with other Salesforce developers, Product Managers, Platform Engineers (frontend and backend), and Salesforce admins on our Salesforce org that supports our web-based advisor platform. They will also be responsible for implementing new services, APIs, and business processes. In addition to hands-on development, they will provide architectural recommendations and lead conversations on best-practices. An ideal candidate would have a highly technical background and be comfortable working with tools like VS Code and Salesforce DX.
WHAT YOU’LL GET TO DO
- Work on a continuously evolving, customer-facing platform that is at the heart of our business
- Work with our platform development team to implement APIs for the Signal Advisors platform
- Design and implement integrations between our Salesforce org and external microservices
- Collaborate with internal teams and Salesforce Admins to implement internal tools for colleagues
- Work with clients to remedy technical issues they are facing on the platform
- Create and maintain documentation
- Participate in code reviews and technical planning meetings
WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR IN TEAM MEMBERS
💪 Executer
We’re currently building out many new initiatives and programs. You’ll need to quickly ramp up and start executing. We talk a lot about strategy and high-level ideas, and you should be able to independently translate ideas into action.
🎡 Process-Driven
You’re someone that geeks out on processes and is a sucker for making sure things stay on track. The goal is to be meticulous enough for quality output but not meticulous to the point of indecision.
🔄 Accountable
Our teams at Signal are small but mighty—we expect team members to work independently, grab the jump ball, and get it past the finish line. Receiving & giving feedback is crucial to accountability.
🏆 Agile Champion
We’re an Agile development organization. You have experience working within Agile methodologies and are excited to advocate for Agile principles and best practices.
🙋 Autonomous
You operate autonomously. You exercise independent judgment in matters of significance, take initiative with little direction, and raise your hand when collaboration and support is needed.
MUST HAVES
- 6+ years experience working with Apex, Lightning Web Components, and VS Code
- Strong experience with Apex enterprise patterns and best practices
- Hands-on experience with Salesforce DX and source-driven development
- An understanding of continuous integration systems
- Experience integrating Salesforce with other applications via real-time, batch, sync/async, Apex REST, or integration platforms
- Financial Services Cloud or FinServ industry experience preferred
