Job Description

Salesforce Technical Architect managing technical architecture for integration-heavy solutions in the energy industry. Leading a delivery squad and ensuring adherence to Salesforce standards.

Responsibilities:

  • Own end-to-end technical architecture — translating requirements into robust, well-engineered solution designs.
  • Lead analysis of technical and integration requirements; review current-state architecture and define target integration patterns across a complex enterprise landscape.
  • Provide hands-on technical setup, configuration and workflow-automation guidance to developers and consultants.
  • Serve as the main technical point of contact for the customer on architectural matters.
  • Provide technical governance — set and uphold standards, review technical artefacts, and evaluate change requests and deviations from specification.
  • Conduct sprint reviews and provide architectural feedback and technical oversight throughout delivery.
  • Own and maintain architecture documentation.
  • Ensure solutions align with Salesforce Well-Architected principles and with security, data and performance standards.

Requirements:

  • An excellent understanding of the Salesforce platform and its architecture.
  • Experience in Energy & Utilities Cloud / Salesforce Industries.
  • Proven experience designing and governing complex, integration-heavy Salesforce solutions in a large enterprise environment.
  • Deep, hands-on knowledge of integration patterns and approaches (APIs, events, middleware) between Salesforce and external systems.
  • Experience gained from a range of projects (ideally 100+ users).
  • One or more Salesforce 'Architect'-level certifications (e.g. Application Architect / System Architect).
  • The ability to solve complex problems and to concisely summarise and share findings — able to see both the big picture and the detail.
  • Comfortable communicating technical issues in clear, everyday language to technical and non-technical audiences.
  • An accomplished communicator through written, verbal and presentation skills, with a friendly, customer-focused attitude.
  • Knowledge of agile working practices, in particular Scrum, and associated tools such as Jira.
  • Ability to work successfully in a team with a diverse range of interests and backgrounds.

Benefits:

  • 38 days annual leave including bank holidays
  • Fully remote working (or work from our offices in Stroud, you choose!)
  • Full (8%) company pension scheme
  • Health plan
  • Profit sharing bonus
  • Enhanced maternity and paternity leave packages
