  • Troubleshoot release, deployment, environment, access, configuration, integration, and production support issues.
  • Support incident response and hotfix activities by validating configuration issues, access problems, deployment defects, and platform-level concerns.
  • Support data import, export, cleanup, validation, and migration activities using Data Loader, Data Import Wizard, reports, SOQL, or approved customer tools.
  • Support occasional off-hours releases, production deployments, outages, hotfixes, or urgent operational needs.
