  • Lead architectural design, governance, and long-term planning across Salesforce (Sales Cloud, CPQ, Service Cloud) and related GTM platforms.
  • Co-own GTM systems roadmap in collaboration with RevOps, IT, and executive leadership.

Serve as a trusted advisor on enterprise architecture decisions and platform scalability.

  • Establish standards and best practices for declarative automation, configuration, and platform usage across systems.

  • Champion data quality, consistency, and operational reliability across platforms.
  • Manage roles, profiles, permission sets, and system access across GTM applications.
  • Ensure platforms comply with InfoSec, SSO (Okta), and privacy requirements.
  • Design and implement process automation using Salesforce Flows, validation rules, workflow automation, and optimization tools across the GTM stack.
  • Collaborate with integration engineers and architects to design and troubleshoot data flows and integrations (Workato, APIs).
