Salesforce Architect

The Salesforce Architect owns the technical architecture and roadmap for SunPower's Salesforce ecosystem, ensuring the platform scales cleanly to support sales, service, and operations across a growing, multi-brand organization. This role partners with business stakeholders and developers to design solutions that are secure, maintainable, and built for long-term growth rather than one-off fixes.

• Translate business requirements from Sales, Service, and Operations into scalable, well-documented Salesforce solutions.
• Lead design and code review for custom development (Apex, Lightning Web Components, flows) built by internal and contract developers.
• Define and enforce Salesforce governance standards: environment strategy, release management, and change control.
• Architect integrations between Salesforce and other core systems (NetSuite, marketing automation, telephony, etc.).
• Evaluate and recommend AppExchange packages versus custom builds, balancing speed, cost, and long-term maintainability.
• Own technical debt reduction and platform health, including managing org complexity as SunPower integrates newly acquired companies.
• Partner with the VP of IT and business stakeholders to set the Salesforce roadmap and prioritize the backlog.
• Mentor junior Salesforce admins/developers and support their growth.

• 7+ years of hands-on Salesforce experience, including at least 3 years in an architect-level role.

• Deep knowledge of Salesforce data modeling, security architecture, Apex, Lightning Web Components, and Flow.
• Demonstrated experience to include AI native to SFDC or from outside software to link into SDFC
• Proven experience designing integrations between Salesforce and external systems via REST/SOAP APIs or middleware.
• Experience supporting a Sales Cloud and/or Service Cloud implementation at scale, ideally in a multi-entity or acquisitive company.
• Strong communication skills, with the ability to work directly with business stakeholders as well as engineers.
