Our approach considers people, processes, and technology-and a successful engagement includes recommendations to the business for change to support deeper, more scalable enterprise integration using MuleSoft.

OVERVIEW OF THE ROLE

Salesforce is currently seeking a MuleSoft Technical Architect to join our Professional Services team within the Customer Success Group (CSG). MuleSoft Technical Architects work as part of a team, demonstrating technical thought leadership in customer and partner engagements.

Through our extended onboarding program of formal certification, internal training, knowledge transfer, hands-on experience, and close collaboration with other Architects, Consultants, and Project Managers, you will become a MuleSoft Domain Authority at the forefront of our offerings, delivering outstanding customer success.
As a Technical Architect, you will be responsible for evaluating, designing, and overseeing the implementation of scalable and composable integration architectures.

• Create Blueprint Designs: Drive the creation of application and technical design documents that leverage MuleSoft best practices and effectively integrate disparate systems into the customer's infrastructure.
• Establish Centers for Enablement (C4E): Guide customers in setting up C4E operating models to drive API reuse, self-service, and agility across their organization.
• Troubleshoot & Resolve: Address key customer implementation issues and demonstrate the ability to drive complex technical challenges to a successful resolution.
• Risk Management: Proactively identify and manage technical risk areas, committing to seeing issues through to complete resolution.
• Stakeholder Management: Manage customer expectations and negotiate solutions to complex architectural problems with both the customer and third-party partners.
• Relationship Building: Build relationships with internal and external business partners, contributing to broader goals and growth beyond the scope of a single customer engagement.

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS

• Integration Expertise: Extensive hands-on technical and solution architecture experience in enterprise integration, specifically designing and implementing complex solutions.
• Technical Acumen: Deep understanding of API-led connectivity, microservices architecture, Enterprise Integration Patterns, API design (RAML/OAS) and vibe coding.
• Development Background: Coding experience in object-oriented languages (e.g., Java) and proficiency with integration development tools (e.g., DataWeave, CI/CD pipelines, Maven, Git).
• Analytical Skills: Ability to analyze, design, and optimize complex business processes via technology and integration.
• Advisory Skills: Ability to support customers and project members in rationalizing and deploying emerging technology.
• Team Collaboration: Ability to work independently and as part of a distributed, matrixed team.
• Communication: Excellent presentation, communication, and facilitation skills, with the ability to explain complex technical concepts to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Travel: Available to travel regionally and occasionally internationally depending on customer needs.
