STAKEHOLDER ENGAGEMENT & BUSINESS ADVOCACY

  • Partner with technical and business stakeholders to deeply understand needs, goals, and desired outcomes—and co-create platform enhancements that deliver meaningful results. 

  • Facilitate collaborative sessions, demos, and reviews to ensure solutions align with business priorities. 

  • Serve as a trusted platform advisor and advocate, clearly representing the business perspective while promoting usability, maintainability, and long-term value. 

  • Help foster a culture of partnership and transparency by encouraging open communication between business and technical teams. 

REQUIREMENTS ANALYSIS & SOLUTION DESIGN

  • Lead discovery sessions to translate complex business problems into system requirements and solution concepts. 

  • Write clear, testable user stories and acceptance criteria that connect business intent to platform functionality. 

  • Recommend declarative solutions that simplify processes and reduce technical debt, prioritizing native Salesforce features. 

  • Align with QA and development teams to validate that solutions meet requirements and deliver measurable outcomes.

  • Advanced Flow Development: Proficiency in building and troubleshooting record-triggered flows, screen flows, and modular subflows.

  • Communication: Strong written and verbal communication skills with the ability to explain technical concepts to non-technical audiences. 

  • Business Insight: Understanding of how system changes impact business workflows, KPIs, and user behavior. 

  • Adaptability: Capable of contributing independently while also taking direction and feedback to improve team outcomes. 

  • Documentation Discipline: Skilled in maintaining clear and accurate documentation of system configurations and business processes.
