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.
About the Role
You are the builder. Production delivery is your job. The pod exists to go fast and go deep.
Salesforce is hiring Solution Builders - senior individual contributors who are the technical engine of a 2-person delivery pod. You partner with a Director who owns strategy and customer relationships; you own the build. You design and deploy production-grade agentic AI systems directly at customer sites, working hands-on every day. No overhead, no managing other builders - just you, your pod partner, and the work in front of you.
This is a hands-on IC delivery role. Your output is working software in production at the customer.
What You'll Do
Build & Deploy (Primary Focus)
Architect, build, and deploy production-grade Agentforce and agentic AI solutions end-to-end - this is your core job
Design and implement AI agents, multi-agent orchestration, agentic workflows, and the integration patterns that hold up in enterprise environments
Own data pipelines, system integrations, and production AI infrastructure across Salesforce, Snowflake, Databricks, and customer platforms
Build rapidly from ambiguous requirements - prototype to validate, then engineer to last
Resolve complex technical blockers: data integration failures, orchestration breakdowns, model deployment issues
Drive solutions from first commit through production handoff and active customer consumption
Pod Partnership with Director
Operate as the technical execution half of a 2-person pod - the Director shapes what gets built and why; you own how it gets built and make sure it ships
Translate strategy and customer context from the Director into concrete technical decisions and daily delivery progress
Communicate blockers, risks, and architecture tradeoffs clearly and early so the pod stays in sync
Represent technical depth in customer-facing sessions - architecture reviews, demos, working sessions, production readouts
Flag patterns, gaps, and opportunities you see in the field back to the Director and to Agentforce product teams
Customer Engagement
Embed directly with customer engineering and data teams - not remotely, not occasionally, but as a consistent presence
Build trust with customer technical counterparts through delivery quality and technical credibility, not just relationship management
Guide customer teams through the technical decisions required to operationalize AI at scale
Surface expansion signals and customer feedback to the Director
Contribute reusable patterns, reference implementations, and field insights back to the broader Builder org
Craft & Continuous Growth
Stay sharp on Agentforce platform evolution, agentic delivery patterns, LLM advances, and the competitive AI landscape
Codify what you learn - reusable components, playbooks, and lessons from the field that raise the bar for the whole org
Bring a growth mindset to hard problems: when something breaks or doesn't work, you dig in rather than escalate
What You Bring
Required
4-8+ years of software engineering, AI delivery, or technical consulting, with hands-on ownership of production systems (Builder: 4-6 years; Senior Builder: 6-8+ years)
Proven track record building and shipping production software - not prototypes, not demos, but systems that run in the real world
Hands-on LLM integration experience: agent frameworks (LangChain, LlamaIndex, or equivalent), prompt engineering, and responsible AI practices in production
Fluency in Python, JavaScript/TypeScript, Java, or Apex - and the range to add to that list as the work demands
Deep experience in data modeling, APIs, and integration patterns - able to design them, not just consume them
Ability to work autonomously in ambiguous, fast-moving customer environments with real delivery accountability
Strong enough communication skills to engage technical stakeholders and explain architecture decisions clearly
Ability to operate effectively as the sole builder in a small, high-trust pod
Willingness to travel ~25% of the time, working directly at customer sites
Preferred
Salesforce platform expertise: Agentforce, Apex, LWC, Data Cloud, Salesforce APIs
Salesforce certifications (Platform Developer I/II, Agentforce Specialist, System Architect)
Experience with cloud data platforms (Snowflake, Databricks, BigQuery)
Prior experience in forward-deployed engineering, consulting, or professional services
Familiarity with DevOps/CI-CD, observability tooling, or data governance frameworks
