About Salesforce

Salesforce is the #1 AI CRM, where humans with agents drive customer success together. Here, ambition meets action. Tech meets trust. And innovation isn't a buzzword - it's a way of life. 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.

DET Sales Engineering is a world-class digital engineering organization responsible for designing, building, and scaling applications and intelligent agents that power Salesforce's Sales & Post Sales business processes.

You'll be joining the broader DET Salesforce on Salesforce team, a strategic pillar within Salesforce's Digital Enterprise Technology organization and a key part of Salesforce's "Customer Zero" initiative. Specifically, you'll be part of the Salesforce on Salesforce Technology group, where we develop and deploy enterprise-scale solutions that power the company's global sales operations, customer success processes, and revenue operations - while serving as the primary validation ground for emerging Salesforce technologies.

You'll be at the forefront of Salesforce's internal digital transformation, working on high-visibility initiatives that demonstrate the full potential of the Salesforce platform to both internal stakeholders and the broader customer ecosystem.

The Experience

We are seeking a Lead Member of Technical Staff (LMTS) to drive end-to-end engineering ownership across a portfolio of complex, business-critical initiatives.

4. Data & Performance Engineering

• Design and govern scalable data models for large data volumes (LDV)

• Optimize SOQL, indexing strategies, and transaction performance

• Ensure high standards of data integrity, security, and compliance

5. Delivery Ownership & Execution

• Own technical scoping, estimation, and breakdown of complex initiatives

• Identify risks, dependencies, and trade-offs early in the lifecycle

• Drive execution across multiple concurrent projects in a global delivery model

6. Stakeholder & Cross-Functional Leadership

• Partner with Product, Architecture, and Business teams to shape solutions

• Translate business requirements into clear technical strategies and trade-offs

• Influence decisions across teams and drive alignment on engineering direction

7. Mentorship & Talent Development

• Mentor and grow engineers across skill levels
