Remote Commodity Trading Operations Jobs in Colorado

Salesforce Engineer at Upstate Coin and Gold

Have you ever thought about a career in the fast-paced gold and silver industry? If so, here is your golden opportunity and the timing couldn’t be better! Upstate Coin & Gold is offering an exceptional opportunity to become an expert in the exciting precious metals profession.

We are seeking an experienced Salesforce Engineer to join our team in a hybrid remote role. This position is based out of our Boulder, Colorado office, with travel to our Centennial, Colorado headquarters when needed.

The Role

We are seeking a visionary Salesforce Engineer to lead the architectural design, development, and implementation of our new Salesforce instance from the ground up. This is a foundational, architect-level role, not a maintenance position. You will serve as the primary builder of our CRM ecosystem, building the scalable architecture that powers our trading and customer operations.

We are looking for a true builder—someone who thrives on laying the groundwork for a growing organization and is passionate about establishing long-term best practices. You must possess a "security-first" mindset and demonstrate deep expertise in complex data orchestration, specifically in utilizing MuleSoft to seamlessly bridge Salesforce with our NetSuite ERP. If you are ready to own a critical platform build from day one, we want to hear from you.

Key Responsibilities

• Greenfield Implementation: Own the full lifecycle of a new Salesforce instance implementation, from initial discovery and schema design to deployment and post-launch optimization.
• Enterprise Integration: Architect and maintain sophisticated, real-time integrations between Salesforce and NetSuite using MuleSoft (Anypoint Platform) to ensure seamless data flow across our financial ecosystem.
• Engineering Excellence: Develop high-quality, scalable code using Apex, Lightning Web Components (LWC), and Flow, adhering to industry best practices (CI/CD via Salesforce DX, TDD, and clean code).
• Data Integrity & Governance: Establish rigorous data governance policies to ensure "golden record" accuracy between CRM and ERP systems, prioritizing transactional integrity for commodity trading.
• Strategic Leadership: Collaborate with stakeholders to translate complex business requirements into technical solutions, providing mentorship to junior team members and driving technical accountability.
• Platform Administration: Perform hands-on administrative Salesforce tasks, including user management, permission sets, profile configuration, and daily platform health monitoring.

• Salesforce Expertise: 4-6 years of professional engineering experience within the Salesforce ecosystem, with a proven track record of implementing new instances from scratch.
• MuleSoft Mastery: Expert-level experience with MuleSoft Anypoint Platform for designing, building, and managing APIs and integrations REQUIRED. You understand how to handle high-concurrency data syncs between disparate systems.
• ERP Orchestration: Deep, hands-on experience integrating Salesforce with NetSuite (or similar Tier-1 ERPs). You understand the nuances of syncing GL accounts, inventory, and order fulfillment data.
• Development & Tooling: Expert command of Apex, LWC, JavaScript, and Salesforce DX. You are comfortable working in a modern dev environment using VS Code and Git-based version control.
• Security & Compliance: Deep understanding of Salesforce Shield, advanced sharing models, and encryption to protect sensitive financial and customer data.
• Education & Certifications: Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or a related field required; Salesforce Certified Application/System Architect or MuleSoft Developer certifications are highly desirable.
• Hands-on, end-to-end development experience, from requirements gathering to post-deployment support.
• Experience in regulated environments (e.g., Government Cloud, Financial Services) is highly valued.

Differentiators

• Full-Stack Familiarity: Experience with Node.js or AWS services (Lambda, SQS) to support off-platform processing and event-driven architectures.
• Domain Expertise: Previous experience in Financial Services, FinTech, or Commodities (understanding of ledger logic, physical asset tracking, or tax compliance).
• AI Augmentation: Experience utilizing Salesforce Einstein or LLM-based development tools (e.g., Cursor, Copilot) to accelerate delivery velocity.
• Agile Management: Experience leading technical sprints and managing complex backlogs in a fast-paced environment.
• Modern Innovation: Experience with Agentforce, Salesforce Einstein, or leveraging LLM-based development tools to accelerate delivery.
• Reusable Architecture: Proven ability to build modular, scalable components for long-term platform maintenance.

Core Technologies

• Platform: Salesforce (Sales Cloud, Service Cloud, Experience Cloud)
• Integration: MuleSoft Anypoint Platform, REST/SOAP APIs
• Languages: Apex, JavaScript (LWC), SOQL/SOSL
• ERP Ecosystem: NetSuite (SuiteTalk, REST Web Services)
• DevOps: Salesforce DX, GitHub Actions, Copado (or similar)

Professional Attributes

• Hands-on Developer: You thrive in the weeds of code and configuration, preferring a keyboard-first approach to solving problems.
• Meticulous Attention to Detail: In the gold and silver industry, a decimal point matters. You exhibit a passion for data precision and system reliability.
• Security-First Mindset: You architect solutions with the assumption that data is the company's most valuable asset, ensuring robust protection at every layer.
• High-Velocity Execution: Ability to make sound architectural decisions quickly in a high-stakes, commodity-trading environment.
• Effective Communicator: Ability to explain complex technical trade-offs to non-technical executive stakeholders.
• Self-Starter and Motivator: You possess an innate drive to own projects from inception to completion and have the ability to motivate cross-functional teams to align on technical goals.
