Job Summary

Knowledge & Skills
-    Standard Salesforce configuration: Proficiency in the full range of declarative tools — validation rules, approval processes, record types, assignment and escalation rules, standard automation, and platform-native features. Demonstrated discipline in exhausting configuration options before introducing Flows or Apex, in alignment with the standard configuration decision framework.
-    Advanced Flow design across all flow types — Screen, Record-Triggered, Scheduled, Autolaunched, and Platform Event-Triggered. Mastery of fault paths, error handling, subflow architecture, loop optimization, collection management, and Flow debugging. Ability to design Flows that are as maintainable and production-ready as handwritten code.

-    Lightning Web Components: component lifecycle, wire service, event handling, base components, and performance optimization.
-    Salesforce security model: profiles, permission sets, sharing rules, record-level and field-level security — with the ability to implement configurations that comply with least-privilege principles.
-    Integration implementation: REST/SOAP API callouts, Platform Events, Change Data Capture, Named Credentials, and OAuth flows.
-    Financial Services Cloud: working knowledge of the FSDM, FSC-specific objects, and client lifecycle data patterns.
-    Experience Cloud: LWC development for portal contexts, guest user security implementation, and Experience Builder configuration.
-    DevOps practices: Source-driven development, CI/CD pipelines, and Unlocked Package development.
-    Strong debugging and troubleshooting skills across Apex, Flow, and integration layers.
-    Ability to read and implement from solution design documents, and to communicate implementation decisions clearly to architects and business stakeholders.
