Ensure solutions are scalable, secure, and maintainable, adhering to enterprise architecture standards, data governance, and audit requirements. Champion analytics and telemetry, enabling robust reporting and dashboards for pipeline health, capture performance, and CI effectiveness. 5. Risk, Compliance & Data Stewardship Ensure adherence to data privacy, export control, and regulatory requirements, especially for sensitive opportunity and competitor data. Implement robust role-based access and auditability for capture and CI data within Salesforce. Promote data quality and governance for accounts, opportunities, competitors, and pipeline data, including integration with MDM and enterprise data platforms. 6.
