  • Foundational knowledge of other Salesforce development concepts (Visualforce, Lightning Web Components, SOQL/SOSL, platform limits)

  • Experience integrating Salesforce with third-party tools via native connectors, managed packages, or integration platforms

  • Strong customer service orientation, with a genuine desire to help users work through problems

  • Certified Salesforce Administrator or similar experience

Core skills

Skills and capabilities most closely associated with this opportunity.

Sample interview questions
How have you improved a Salesforce CPQ or quote-to-cash workflow in a production environment?

I start by mapping the current process from opportunity through quoting, contracting, ordering, and downstream finance handoff. I review pricing rules, approvals, product configuration, exceptions, and error patterns, then prioritize changes that improve accuracy, reduce manual effort, and preserve auditability. I validate the solution in sandboxes with representative data and business-user UAT before a controlled release.

Describe your approach to troubleshooting an Apex-related production issue.

I first assess business impact and contain the issue where possible, then use debug logs, monitoring, recent deployment history, and data comparisons to isolate the failing automation or transaction. I evaluate governor-limit exposure, recursion, bulkification, test coverage, and downstream dependencies. After validating a fix in a sandbox, I deploy through the approved change process and confirm the result with targeted post-release checks.

How would you design a sustainable Salesforce data-retention strategy?

I would classify objects and fields by regulatory, operational, reporting, and integration needs, with input from Legal, Security, Finance, and RevOps. I would define retention periods, archival or deletion rules, ownership, exception handling, and restore requirements. Before implementation, I would measure storage drivers and test archival processes to ensure that reporting, integrations, and audit obligations remain intact.

How do you manage Salesforce permissions and RBAC at scale?

I use a least-privilege model centered on clear job functions, permission-set groups, controlled profile usage, and documented access policies. I regularly audit privileged access, inactive users, permission-set assignments, and segregation-of-duties risks. I also establish an access-request workflow and test permission changes with representative users before broader rollout.

How do you communicate technical Salesforce issues to nontechnical stakeholders?

I explain the business impact first, such as whether quoting, forecasting, or provisioning is affected, then describe the issue and options in plain language. I provide a clear owner, timeline, mitigation, and decision needed from stakeholders. For longer-term fixes, I document the root cause, implementation plan, risks, and measurable outcome so teams can align on priorities.
