Sprouts.ai - Senior Salesforce Developer - Apex/Lightning Component Framework

What Youll Own (Outcomes, Not Tasks) :

- Managed Package & In-Salesforce Product Experience.

- Build and evolve Sprouts Salesforce managed package using Apex, Lightning Web Components (LWC), and Salesforce platform capabilities.

- Design an intuitive in-Salesforce experience for Sprouts insights, recommendations, and actions (record pages, utility bar, components, flows where needed).

- Own AppExchange-readiness quality: packaging strategy, versioning, dependency management, upgrade paths, and release discipline.

- Integration Architecture (Data, APIs, Events).

- Design scalable data models and sync patterns to connect Sprouts intelligence with Salesforce objects (standard + custom) across Sales Cloud and Service Cloud.

- Build robust integration flows with Sprouts backend systems using REST APIs, webhooks, and event-driven patterns (including Platform Events / CDC where appropriate).

- Make integration decisions that balance correctness, performance, governor limits, and enterprise security expectations.

- Quality, Testing, CI/CD, and Release Engineering.

- Own the development workflow and engineering hygiene: Salesforce DX, Git branching, PR standards, automated validation, and deployment pipelines.

- Define the testing strategy (unit + integration) and improve coverage without slowing delivery.

- Raise code quality through clear patterns, documentation, reusable utilities, and thoughtful reviews.

- Security, Compliance, and Scale.

- Implement Salesforce security best practices: CRUD/FLS enforcement, sharing model correctness, secure secrets handling, and safe API consumption.

- Design for enterprise scale: bulkification, async patterns (Queueable/Batch/Future as needed), resiliency, and predictable performance under governor limits.

- Partner with Engineering Leadership to ensure compliance and auditability expectations for enterprise customers.

- Cross-Functional Collaboration & Mentorship.

- Work closely with Product and Engineering Leadership to shape the roadmap and translate customer needs into scalable technical solutions.

- Communicate technical trade-offs clearly to non-technical stakeholders and help unblock delivery decisions fast.

- Mentor and guide developers as the Salesforce integration surface area (and team) grows.

Tech & Tools Youll Work With :

- Salesforce: Apex, LWC, SOQL/SOSL, Flows (where appropriate), Platform Events / CDC.

- Dev tooling: Salesforce DX, Git, CI/CD (GitHub Actions / equivalent), scratch orgs, packaging tools.

- Integrations: REST/SOAP APIs, webhooks, middleware patterns (MuleSoft/Boomi/etc. exposure is a plus).

- Backend collaboration: API contracts, auth patterns, event streams (conceptual comfort expected).

Must-Have Skills (Hard Filters) :

- 5+ years building on Salesforce (Apex, LWC, SOQL) with production responsibility.

- Hands-on experience building or contributing to Salesforce managed packages.

- Strong understanding of Sales Cloud and/or Service Cloud customization and config.

- Comfortable with Salesforce DX, source-driven development, Git workflows, and CI/CD.

- Strong integration fundamentals (REST/SOAP, auth patterns, data sync strategies, eventing).

- Deep knowledge of governor limits, security model, and how to build scalable, bulk-safe solutions.

- Clear communicator who can document and defend technical decisions.

Nice-to-Haves (Strong Signals) :

- Salesforce Platform Developer I and/or II certification.

- Experience shipping products on the AppExchange end-to-end.

- Exposure to AI-powered Salesforce features (e.g., Agentforce or similar) and how to design experiences around them.

- Experience with integration tools / iPaaS (MuleSoft, Boomi, Workato, n8n, etc. Prior work on multi-tenant SaaS integrations and enterprise onboarding patterns.

Please Dont Apply If :

- Youve only done point-and-click Salesforce admin work and havent shipped real Apex/LWC systems.

- Youre uncomfortable owning architecture decisions and making trade-offs under constraints.

- You expect slow cycles and heavy processes before you can ship value.

- You avoid documentation, testing discipline, or code reviews.

Hiring Signals We Look For :

- Examples of complex Salesforce implementations youve led (especially managed packages and integrations).

- Clear articulation of how you handled governor limits, bulkification, and security constraints.

- Evidence of quality practices: testing strategy, CI/CD, deployment hygiene, release/versioning.

- Ability to explain trade-offs and simplify complexity for stakeholders.

- Proof that your work improved real outcomes (stability, performance, adoption, time-to-integrate, etc.
