Position Overview

We're looking for a DevOps Engineer who specializes in Salesforce delivery at scale—owning CI/CD, environment strategy, automated testing, packaging, and release governance across Sales Cloud, Service Cloud, Experience Cloud, and integrations. You'll build and run opinionated pipelines (Salesforce DX), enforce branching and quality gates, and partner with admins, developers, and business stakeholders to deliver secure, reliable, and frequent releases.

Summary of Primary Duties and Responsibilities

The DevOps Engineer is a remote position. This position will report to the Chief Information Officer. While not an exhaustive list, the DevOps Engineer will be responsible for:

Own CI/CD for Salesforce

Design, implement, and maintain CI/CD pipelines using Salesforce DX (sfdx/sf), Git (GitHub/GitLab/Azure Repos), and a release toolchain (e.g., Copado/Gearset/AutoRABIT/Jenkins).

Define branching strategy (e.g., trunk-based or Gitflow), merge policies, code review standards, and automated validation.

Environment \& Org Strategy

Manage sandboxes, scratch orgs, and packaging: org shape, seeding, data masking, and refresh cadence.

Establish source-driven development with unlocked/second-gen packages when appropriate.

Quality Automation

Integrate unit and integration tests (Apex tests, Jest for LWC), metadata diffs, and deployment validation (check-only).

Set quality gates (test coverage thresholds, rulesets) and break-glass procedures.

Release \& Change Management

Run release trains, release notes, approvals, and change calendars.

Maintain deployment runbooks and back-out plans.

Security, Compliance \& Observability

Enforce least privilege, profile/permission set migration, Health Check, Shield (if licensed), secrets management, and audit trails.

Implement monitoring and alerting on deployment pipelines and platform limits; track MTTR, change failure rate, and deployment frequency.

Data \& Integration Support

Orchestrate data migrations (Data Loader, sfdmu, Bulk API 2.0) with idempotent scripts and mapping.

Coordinate with integration platforms (MuleSoft, Boomi, Kafka, Azure) for versioned, backward-compatible changes.

Platform Hygiene \& Governance

Champion metadata rationalization, dependency management, and legacy remediation.

Coach engineers/admins on DevOps best practices; drive continuous improvement.
