Career Area: Technology, Digital and Data
Job Summary The Lead Salesforce Product Owner will work within our large Salesforce ecosystem. You will lead strategies for Sales Cloud and Experience Cloud to optimize revenue and drive towards world‑class portals. You will drive new endeavors, maintain existing solutions and refactor technical debt. You will also need to stay ahead of the curve, evaluating and implementing emerging technologies like Agentforce (AI Agents), Data Cloud, and everything else.
What You Will Do
Lead strategic initiatives: Drive change through out‑of‑the‑box solutions and consult many business partners on their innovative ideas.
Work within our team of Product Owners, Engineers, and Architects to validate POCs and roll out new solutions when needed.
Implement Emerging Technologies: Evaluate and integrate cutting‑edge Salesforce innovations, including Agentforce (AI Agents) and Data Cloud.
Drive advanced standardization and utilize advanced automation tools like Flow to ensure the Salesforce ecosystem effectively meets the evolving needs of business partners.
What You Will Have
Business Analysis: Strategic roadmap and vision; strong ability to translate long‑term company goals into a Salesforce roadmap that balances new features with technical debt and platform upgrades.
Decision Making and Critical Thinking: Knowledge and application of logical frameworks (like Value vs. Effort) to prioritize the backlog.
Software Problem Management: Understanding how a lead flows from a website click to a closed‑won opportunity; ability to spot process gaps and design solutions that fix the business problem, rather than just adding a new custom field.
Software Product Business Knowledge: Thorough understanding of what the platform can do natively; knowing the difference between a Flow, a Validation Rule, and a Custom Object allows you to guide developers and prevent over‑engineering.
Effective Communications: Explain complex technical limitations to executives in terms of business risk and ROI, ensuring everyone is aligned on what can realistically be delivered.
Compensation & Benefits Salary Range: $126,000.00 – $204,720.00 (per year).
