### About Team

The IT SaaS Engineering Team is the backbone of MongoDB's go-to-market operations.

- Establish and enforce engineering standards for coding, testing, documentation, CI/CD, and release management
- Troubleshoot complex production issues and drive long-term, scalable resolutions

- Leverage AI-powered engineering tools (Apex Guru, GitHub Copilot, Salesforce Agentforce Vibes, Claude Code) to improve productivity and code quality — with strong judgment on security, privacy, and accuracy.
### Responsibilities

- Provide technical leadership through architecture reviews, design reviews, code reviews, and engineering best practices
- Act as a subject matter expert on Salesforce development, platform capabilities, automation, integrations, and scalable CRM solution design
- Lead technical design sessions and identify gaps between current-state and future-state solutions
- Evaluate emerging technologies, frameworks, and engineering practices, and drive proof-of-concepts where appropriate
- Mentor engineers across the team and foster a culture of ownership, collaboration, continuous learning, and engineering excellence
- Support team growth by coaching, developing talent, and helping build a high-performing engineering organization
- Influence business and technical stakeholders through strong communication, sound judgment, and effective problem-solving
- Operate effectively in a fast-changing environment by managing priorities, driving accountability, and ensuring high-quality execution
### Minimum Requirements

- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, or a related field
- 12+ years of Salesforce engineering or technical leadership experience within global SaaS organizations
- 2+ years directly managing engineering teams — hiring, performance management, and career development
- Strong hands-on experience with Sales Cloud (opportunity/lead management, forecasting, territory/assignment rules) and Experience Cloud (portal architecture, sharing sets, guest user security, community licensing) required.
- Strong hands-on experience with Apex, Lightning Web Components, Flows, integrations, and platform customization
- Strong understanding of Salesforce architecture, governor limits, design patterns, and scalable solution design
- Experience with DevOps, CI/CD, release management, and Agile/Scrum delivery
