Job Summary

We are seeking a Salesforce DevOps & Release Engineer to manage our platform stability, sandbox architecture, and deployment lifecycles. The ideal candidate will build and maintain automated CI/CD pipelines, orchestrate metadata migrations, establish branching strategies, and minimize environment friction across multi-stream development teams.

Key Responsibilities

- Manage the end-to-end sandbox lifecycle, including workplace creation, standard and partial refreshes, data masking setups, and org alignment tracking.

- Coordinate package-based and org-based deployments using Salesforce CLI, Salesforce DX (SFDX), and custom automated scripting.

- Orchestrate scratch org structures and test-data seeding profiles to optimize automated execution runs within automated testing suites.

- Lead release triage efforts, resolving intricate metadata package merge conflicts, component dependency mismatches, and deployment failures across production drops.

Requirements

- Strong technical mastery of specialized Salesforce release management platforms (e.g., Copado, Gearset, Flosum) or cloud CI/CD infrastructure (e.g., GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps, Jenkins).

- Deep understanding of Git, Salesforce CLI commands, metadata API package structures, and the Salesforce DX platform architecture.

- Mandatory certification: Salesforce Certified Development Lifecycle and Deployment Designer.
