    • Write Apex classes, triggers, and Lightning Web Components (LWC) under guidance from senior developers
    • Configure Flows, Process Builder, and validation rules to automate business processes
    • Support declarative (clicks-not-code) solutions before recommending custom code

    Testing & Quality

    • Write unit tests for Apex code to meet code coverage and quality standards
    • Debug and troubleshoot issues in existing customizations and integrations
    • Support user acceptance testing (UAT) and validate fixes before deployment
    • Follow release management and deployment best practices (sandboxes, change sets, CI/CD tools)

    Integrations & Data

    • Assist with integrations between Salesforce and other business systems (marketing automation, ERP, support tools)
    • Support data migration, imports, and data quality efforts using tools like Data Loader
    • Help maintain APIs and middleware connections (e.g., REST/SOAP callouts, MuleSoft, or similar)

    Collaboration & Support

    • Partner with business analysts and stakeholders in Sales, Marketing, and Operations to understand requirements
    • Translate business requirements into technical solutions within the Salesforce platform
    • Document technical designs, configurations, and code changes
    • Provide day-to-day support for Salesforce users, resolving tickets and bugs as needed

    AI & Automation Development

    • Help build and configure an interactive AI support agent within Salesforce (e.g., Agentforce/Einstein or custom LWC integration with an LLM API) to automate responses to common user questions
    • Develop Apex classes and Lightning Web Components to connect the AI agent to Salesforce data (cases, knowledge articles, CRM records)
    • Configure and train the AI agent using knowledge base content, FAQs, and support workflows
    • Write test cases to validate AI agent responses, accuracy, and proper escalation to human agents
    • Monitor and iterate on AI agent performance, expanding automated coverage over time

    Qualifications

    • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, or a related field (or equivalent experience)
    • 0–2 years of experience developing on the Salesforce platform (internships, coursework, or personal projects count)
    • Basic understanding of Apex, Visualforce, and/or Lightning Web Components
    • Familiarity with object-oriented programming concepts
    • Understanding of relational databases and basic SQL/SOQL
    • Strong problem-solving skills and attention to detail
    • Willingness to learn Salesforce best practices and platform updates

    Preferred (Not Required)

    • Salesforce Platform Developer I certification (or in progress)
    • Salesforce Administrator certification
    • Experience with version control (e.g., Git) and CI/CD tools
    • Exposure to HTML, CSS, and JavaScript
    • Interest in or exposure to AI/LLM tools (e.g., Salesforce Einstein/Agentforce, OpenAI/Anthropic APIs, chatbot frameworks)
    • Coursework, internship, or project experience involving CRM or business systems

    What Success Looks Like

    • You deliver clean, well-tested code that meets business requirements
    • You become comfortable navigating the Salesforce ecosystem (Sales Cloud, Service Cloud, and related tools)
    • You build strong working relationships with business analysts and stakeholders across the company
    • You progress toward a Salesforce Platform Developer II certification and a mid-level developer role
