Salesforce Architect

As our Salesforce Solution & DevOps Architect you are a hands-on, senior member of the in-house Business Systems team - blending Salesforce solution design, day-to-day development, and, above all, ownership of our DevOps and release capability. Your primary remit is to bring deployment in-house and act as the release gate and controller for the Salesforce estate: the person who decides what ships, how and when, and who makes it safe, tested, compliant, auditable and repeatable., * Own the Salesforce DevOps and release capability end to end - source control, CI/CD pipelines, environment and sandbox strategy, branching and deployment - and bring it in-house.

• Act as the release gate and controller - govern what deploys and when, enforce change control and quality gates, manage deployments and rollbacks, and keep releases safe, auditable and repeatable.
• Define and implement the QA approach - test strategy, automated testing (Apex and UI / regression) built into CI/CD, and quality gates at the release gate - and assure test coverage across in-house and partner delivery.
• Own metadata and version-control discipline (e.g. SFDX, Metadata API and DevOps tooling such as Gearset or Copado) and continuously improve release automation and throughput.
• Manage and improve change and release workflows in Jira, tying change management (ITIL) into our DevOps and CI/CD process to keep delivery controlled and efficient.
• Provide solution design and decisioning across Sales, Service and Experience Cloud (FSC ideal) - shaping and reviewing designs and making pragmatic day-to-day design and configuration decisions within the target architecture.
• Uphold data protection, security and regulatory requirements in what is designed and released - the Salesforce data model, security and sharing, data quality, and GDPR / UK GDPR and FCA obligations.
• Set and uphold development, DevOps and QA frameworks, standards and best practices, and mentor and upskill the in-house team.
• Provide technical assurance over the delivery partner’s build - review deployability, standards adherence, test coverage and quality, and hold delivery to account operationally.
• Build and configure hands-on across the platform - declarative automation (flows), Apex and Lightning Web Components - to deliver change, automate DevOps and testing, and unblock the team.
• Support incidents, change-linked fixes and access / permission work as part of a healthy, well-run platform.

• Strong, hands-on Salesforce development across configuration and code - flows, Apex and Lightning Web Components - including the capability to build and automate DevOps pipelines and tests.
• Proven Salesforce DevOps and release engineering - source control (Git), CI/CD pipelines, SFDX / Metadata API, environment and sandbox strategy, and DevOps tooling (e.g. Gearset, Copado or Flosum).
• Experience acting as a release owner / gatekeeper - change control, deployment, rollback and release quality in a controlled environment.
• Test and QA engineering - test strategy, automated testing (Apex tests, UI / regression) and quality gates integrated into CI/CD and the release process.
• Solution design across multiple clouds (Sales, Service and Experience Cloud), with the judgement to make and hold day-to-day design decisions (FSC preferred).
• Strong data and regulatory knowledge - Salesforce data modelling and the security & sharing model, data quality, and GDPR / UK GDPR and FCA / regulatory requirements.
• Setting standards and frameworks and mentoring a development team - coding and DevOps best practice, security and sharing, and technical-debt management.
• Experience assuring or governing third-party / partner delivery.
• Financial services / regulated-industry experience, with a good understanding of investment and lending products and their treatment (e.g. assets under management, lending, VAT, VCTs and ISAs).
• Change management and Jira - hands-on experience running and improving change / release workflows in Jira, grounded in ITIL / ITSM change-management practice., * Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering or a related technical discipline.
• Salesforce Certified Administrator, Platform Developer I and Platform App Builder.
• Salesforce Development Lifecycle and Deployment Architect.
• An architect-track certification - Application Architect or System Architect (or their component certifications, e.g. Data Architect and Sharing & Visibility Architect).
• A DevOps tooling accreditation (e.g. Gearset or Copado).
• A recognised data-protection / privacy qualification (e.g. BCS Foundation Certificate in Data Protection, or IAPP CIPP/E).
• Salesforce experience across Sales, Service and Experience Cloud in a regulated financial-services setting., Within the first year: Salesforce DevOps and release brought in-house; a working, auditable release gate with clear change control, automated test coverage and quality gates; development, DevOps and QA frameworks and standards set and consistently applied; data protection and regulatory requirements upheld in what ships; a healthy flow of hands-on delivery with the team upskilled; and the delivery partner’s build assured against our release and quality standards.
