You will connect each feature to customer and business outcomes, using data, customer insights, and AI tools to make thoughtful trade-offs between speed and engineering quality.\nWorking across teams and with cross-functional stakeholders, you will bring clarity to technical solution designs, improve engineering practices, and elevate overall system scalability. You will also mentor team members, contribute to incident response, and ensure reliable, zero-impact production deployments.\nThe team / how they connect\nOur engineering teams work collaboratively with sales leaders, technical peers, and cross-functional partners to solve complex platform challenges. We foster an inclusive, high-performing environment where everyone actively participates in agile ceremonies, shares constructive feedback, and supports one another. Together, we take collective ownership of technical excellence, continuous improvement, and delivering software that makes a meaningful difference.\nInitially, you will focus on\nDesigning and delivering Salesforce features using the right balance of Apex, Lightning Web Components, and declarative tools like Flows.\n\nSupporting connected sales tools and managed package upgrades, such as PandaDoc, Gong, and Outreach.\n\nSetting up production monitoring, SLOs, and error handling while managing sandbox refreshes and release deployments.\n\nWhere and how you can work\nWe offer a flexible hybrid working environment that balances working from home with time spent connecting in our modern office spaces. You will have access to collaborative team areas and dedicated community days to collaborate with your peers in person.\nHere are some of the things we are looking for\nExperience developing software using Apex, LWC, SOQL, and declarative Salesforce tools.\n\nA practical approach to using AI responsibly across feature development, debugging, and system log analysis.\n\nDeep expertise in a key Salesforce area such as Sales Cloud, CPQ, Data Cloud, or integrations.\n\nBackground in building and maintaining REST APIs and platform event integrations.\n\nFamiliarity with source control, deployment tooling like Salesforce CLI, and continuous integration pipelines.\n\nProven track record of handling production incidents, root-cause investigations, and quality assurance through TDD and trunk-based development.\n\nStrong stakeholder communication skills-the ability to explain technical concepts clearly, navigate competing priorities, and keep people aligned across functions.\n\nApply even if your experience isn't a perfect match! At Xero, we hire based on your skills, passion, and the unique perspective you can bring to enhance our culture and team.","description_format":"text","description_chars":2847,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Hybrid work"],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"Australia","iso":"AU","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Software","HR & Payroll Software","Accounting & Tax Software","Accounting & Bookkeeping Services"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-05T04:48:23Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":86,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.865,"p_room":1,"age_days":5,"expected_fill_days":31,"reasons":["conf:0","velocity","win:early","comp:brand"],"computed_at":"2026-10-10T05:45:15Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/xero-engineer-salesforce","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/xero-engineer-salesforce.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-11T02:46:49Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":4462,"day_limit":5000,"remaining_today":538,"minute_limit":60,"resets_at":"2026-10-12T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":5206},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=5206"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fxero-engineer-salesforce"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fxero-engineer-salesforce"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fxero-engineer-salesforce"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/xero-engineer-salesforce\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fxero-engineer-salesforce"}]}
