Role Summary

We are representing a leading South African Salesforce consulting partner seeking a senior Technical Architect. This is a high-impact role where you will be the technical cornerstone for complex, large-scale client projects.

You will be responsible for designing robust and scalable solutions, owning the technical delivery, and guiding both clients and internal teams. This position offers a unique opportunity to define your own career path, whether you are passionate about deep technical mastery or growing as a people leader.

Why This Opportunity is for You

  • Choose Your Growth Path
    This role is designed to fit your career goals. You can choose to grow into our most senior technical expert, focusing on complex architecture as an individual contributor, or you can take a leadership track, focusing on managing and mentoring a team of developers and consultants.
  • Solve Diverse Technical Puzzles
    As part of a consultancy, you will never be bored. You will get to design solutions for a wide variety of clients across different industries, tackling new and interesting technical challenges on every project.
  • Be the Technical Authority
    You will be the go-to expert for the most difficult technical problems. Your designs will be the blueprint for success, and you will have the authority to make the critical decisions that ensure a solution is secure, scalable, and well-built.
  • Accelerate Your Expertise
    The fast-paced partner environment means you will be constantly learning. You will gain deep experience across multiple clouds, complex integrations, and the latest Salesforce platform features.

What You Will Be Doing

  • Designing end-to-end technical solutions on the Salesforce platform, including integration patterns, data architecture, security models, and custom development strategies.
  • Leading technical workshops and translating complex business requirements into clear architectural designs.
  • Acting as the senior technical escalation point for clients and internal development teams.
  • Governing the technical implementation to ensure it aligns with your design and follows best practices.
  • Based on your chosen path, you will either:
    • Technical Track: Remain hands-on, writing proof-of-concepts and solving the most complex coding challenges.
    • Leadership Track: Focus on leading, mentoring, and managing the performance of a technical team.

What You Will Bring

  • Proven experience as a Salesforce Technical Architect or a senior developer/consulting developer ready to make the step up.
  • Deep and broad knowledge of the Salesforce platform, including Apex, Lightning Web Components (LWC), and API integration patterns.
  • Experience designing and delivering large-scale, complex Salesforce implementations.
  • Strong communication skills, with the ability to explain complex technical concepts to diverse audiences.
  • Relevant Salesforce certifications (e.g., Application/System Architect, or progress towards the CTA) are highly valued.
  • You must be based in South Africa to be considered for this role.
