P&C Sales Technology Solutions is seeking a Product Architect to lead architecture for our Salesforce platform and the integration ecosystem that connects it to the broader enterprise.
Salesforce is the primary platform today and its strategic importance is growing. As the landscape evolves, so will this role. We are looking for someone who can use that Salesforce depth as a springboard to help shape a broader platform and integration architecture.
You'll partner across technology and multiple business teams to shape solution direction, define the roadmap, guide investment decisions, and drive alignment across stakeholders. This role balances hands-on architecture work with cross-team influence to support P&C growth goals and enable connected customer and business experiences.
The ideal candidate brings strong experience with Salesforce, APIs, and data integration technologies such as Python, Databricks and Informatica — and is opinionated about design, collaborative in execution, and curious about what's next.
