The Role

TaskRay is seeking a Senior Salesforce Engineer who will be responsible for guiding and aligning the engineering and product team on high-level architectural design choices, technical standards, tools, and platforms that prioritize app performance, scalability, and security. This position will report to the Director of Engineering.

Some traits we're looking for, from you:

• You have the experience and judgment to know when to use an existing tool vs. implement a new tool and why the distinction is important.
• You can see the bigger picture of our product and are passionate about building a complete and sustaining product.
• You have strong opinions that are weakly held. You are open to change but weigh the costs.
• You implement systems and procedures that improve the overall software development experience.
• You know how to advocate for and support making large architectural changes.
• You can evaluate that existing tooling/libraries/helpers are meeting the needs of the product and team.
• You remain up to speed on new technologies; evaluating and recommending as necessary.
• You have an eye for detail, in both your code and UI/UX.

What you’ll do:

• Provide a technical voice in grooming and sprint planning, including the separation, refinement, and establishment of dependencies and scope in User Story development
• Establish and ensure coding conventions are followed
• Collaborate with other Engineers to unblock their issues to optimize productivity
• Provide quality code reviews that maintain a balance between training, quality, and productivity
• Assist with planning sprints to identify and remove dependencies
• Contribute code as part of bi-weekly sprints
• Understand the intricacies of a large code base and determine the full impact of a feature across an application
• Serve as a point of contact for the product support team to assist with bug escalations and troubleshooting
• Advocate for architectural improvements; identifying patterns and approaches within our code with an emphasis on improving simplicity and approachability
• Lead the development of proof-of-concepts and prototyping new ideas and approaches as necessary
• Occasional travel to Denver or other locations for Company and team offsites

What you bring to the table:

• Salesforce - We are a native Salesforce app so a Salesforce development background will be critical to success in this senior role. This includes maintaining and updating a large Apex code base, as well as knowing which platform features to use for specific goals: LWCs, Async Processing, Callouts, etc.
• JavaScript/React - We spend a lot of our development time on the client side. While we are a native Salesforce app, the majority of our UI is made with the React framework, so an understanding of React and familiarity with Visualforce is important.
• HTML/CSS - You understand the value that well-formed HTML and CSS can add to an application and have experience with it.
• Build Tools - Experience with common front-end development tools such as Babel, Webpack, NPM, etc.
• State Management - Experience with Redux or similar
• Source Control - Strong hands-on experience with source code management systems like Git
• CI / CD - Experience setting up, modifying, and utilizing CI / CD tools such as Github Actions, Jenkins, TravisCI, etc.
• Solid technical skills with a track record of delivering reliable, well-documented, and readable code
• Experience mentoring and pairing with junior engineers and modeling best practices
• Ability to effectively communicate both technical and non-technical information and decision making reasoning
• Experience working on an agile development team

Location

This position is remote (US only). While TaskRay has a physical office in the Denver area, we’ve always been proud of our hybrid approach to the work environment, even pre-pandemic.
