Summary We are seeking a hands-on Senior Salesforce Developer with strong Marketing Cloud expertise to join our Salesforce Center of Excellence. This is a hands-on solutioning and development role — the successful candidate will personally analyze requirements, design solutions, and build and implement them through configuration and code. Following the partner-led implementation of our Marketing Cloud platform, this role takes technical ownership of the delivered solution — maintaining and operating what has been built, reviewing the implementation against Salesforce best practices, ensuring long-term supportability, and solutioning and implementing ongoing enhancements directly. Marketing Cloud experience (Marketing Cloud Next, Data Cloud–native) is a must , and experience with CRM Analytics (CRMA) and Manufacturing Cloud Next is strongly preferred. Detailed Description

• Serve as the technical lead and senior subject-matter authority for the Marketing Cloud platform, owning technical standards, design decisions, and the enhancement roadmap.
• Take technical ownership of the partner-delivered Marketing Cloud solution — maintaining, operating, and continuously improving it once initial deployment by the external SI is complete.

• Maintain and enhance customer data flows and integrations between Marketing Cloud Next, Data Cloud, and source systems (e.g., Microsoft Dynamics 365).
• Own and run a modern Salesforce DevOps practice using Gearset — version control, CI/CD pipelines, automated deployments, environment strategy, and metadata backup/restore.
• Develop and maintain Apex, Lightning Web Components, flows, custom objects, fields, and validation rules according to evolving requirements, applying sound architectural and coding standards.
• Define and enforce development standards, code-review practices, and organization-wide protocols for proper use of Salesforce across teams and partners.
• Maintain system security including sharing rules, role hierarchies, and field-level security, and ensure all changes follow Celestica internal processes.
• Evaluate and operationalize emerging Salesforce capabilities (including Agentforce / AI-assisted marketing), and lead seasonal release readiness across Marketing Cloud and connected clouds.
• Where an external SI is engaged for new workstreams, provide technical oversight, quality-assure delivery, review SOWs, and hold partners to delivery and documentation standards.
• Provide technical direction and mentorship to admins, developers, and analysts within the CoE.
• Create and maintain technical documentation, reports, dashboards, and standard operating procedures.
