About the role

Salesforce is hiring a Portfolio Leader to directly manage and grow a team of technical AI specialists deploying Agentforce solutions inside complex customer environments. The team is a blended delivery organization of Forward Deployed Engineers (Technical Builders) and Deployment Strategists (Strategic Builders) who co-build agentic AI solutions with enterprise customers. This hands-on leadership role sets engineering standards, unblocks complex customer deployments, and scales the talent shipping production AI on the Salesforce platform.

What you will do

  • Delivery Team Coordination: You own the capacity planning, talent acquisition, and staffing that ensures your cross-functional squads have the horsepower to deploy Agentforce at enterprise scale.
  • AI-Augmented Leadership: Your team ships solutions using a best-in-class suite of AI tools (Cursor, Claude, and Salesforce coding products like Vibes). You will foster an inclusive, high-energy, and psychologically safe engineering culture where builders iterate fast and continuously level up.
  • Direct Product Influence: You stand at the center of the product feedback loop. Partner directly with the Product and Engineering organizations on pilot programs and beta rollouts, turning raw field insights from high-stakes deployments into features on the Agentforce core roadmap.
  • Scale Elite Talent: Recruit, mentor, and develop the next wave of Technical and Strategic Builders. Drive technical excellence, structure career growth, and foster an environment where shipping high-quality, production-ready systems is the norm.
  • Maintain Operational Velocity: Monitor key delivery metrics, coach your teams on optimization, and run hard on complex customer escalations. You ensure your teams move from sketch to deployable in weeks, not months.
  • Ultimate Technical Authority: Serve as the final technical escalation point for your portfolio. Maintain deep architectural judgment across the Salesforce platform, advanced LLM techniques, data pipelines, and agentic orchestration.
  • Guide Enterprise Implementations: Unblock complex data readiness, tool integration, and multi-agent orchestration challenges. Step in directly to help your teams assess customer technical readiness, remove deployment barriers, and codify standardized, repeatable delivery methodologies.
  • Drive Agentic Adoption: Build and anchor strong executive-level relationships within your customer portfolio, ensuring flawless Agentforce activation, rollout, and sustained production value.
  • Accelerate Portfolio Performance: Operationally run your account portfolio with engineering rigor - monitoring health, delivery velocity, and core consumption metrics to accelerate progress toward customer business outcomes.
  • Cross-Functional Alignment: Partner lock-step with Services, Account Success, and Product teams to help enterprises activate and consume Agentforce quickly, moving customers from pilot to production at hyper-speed.

What the employer is looking for

  • You Have Proven Leadership: 4+ years of direct people management or high-impact technical leadership steering cross-functional engineering or technical teams. You have a track record of hiring, mentoring, and scaling technical talent.
  • You Bring Advanced Technical Depth: Deep architectural understanding of AI, LLMs, and the Salesforce ecosystem. You have hands-on experience with enterprise software implementation, data modeling, API integration, and AI deployments.
  • You Own the Agentforce & Data Cloud Blueprint: You possess direct, hands-on experience architecting or deploying Salesforce Data Cloud and the Agentforce platform. You don't just understand the tech stack - you know how to orchestrate it to unblock enterprise scale and drive immediate production value.
  • You Lead with an Enterprise Customer Focus: Strong background navigating high-touch customer strategies at a Global level, paired with exceptional executive-level communication and influence skills. You can hold your own in a room with customer CTOs and enterprise architects.
  • You Have a Ship-It Mindset: Exceptional problem-solving instincts, extreme resourcefulness, and a "get-things-done" demeanor. You thrive at the technical helm where code is being actively shipped, not just talking about it.

Preferred qualifications

  • Hands-on experience building multi-agent systems, prompt engineering pipelines, or deterministic AI guardrails.
  • Familiarity with cloud data platforms (Snowflake, Databricks, BigQuery) and enterprise data pipelines.
  • Relevant Salesforce certifications (Advanced Admin, Service Cloud, Data Cloud, Sales Cloud, or Agentforce Specialist).

Benefits and support

  • Compensation and benefits are detailed in the job posting
