Hands-On Software Architect
A senior engineer who designs the system and writes the hardest code in it.
Designs the three-layer architecture (Salesforce Azure portal/mobile) and personally builds the core of it.
Owns the trickiest integrations and the parts no one else can do yet leads from the codebase, not from a deck.
Makes and defends build-vs-buy calls (portal product vs. Salesforce Experience Cloud vs. custom) with real cost/time/control reasoning.
Sets standards by doing: repos, CI/CD, code review, tests, secure coding, and documentation that survives the author leaving.
Mentors the Senior Engineer through code, not just meetings.
Expect roughly 60 70% of their time writing/reviewing code, the rest on design and direction. A candidate who wants to stop coding is wrong for this role.

Requirements:
Currently hands-on and want to stay hands-on. Recent shipped code is required.
At least two production languages. "React" is a JavaScript/TypeScript framework, not a separate language the real bar is JavaScript/TypeScript plus Python (Apex a solid bonus). One language pass.




Built front end, back end, and database genuinely full-stack.
Salesforce Experience.
Hands on Work on Cloud (AWS, Azure, etc.)
Shipped at least one product to real external customers.
Git, CI/CD, and a documentation habit.
