About Salesforce

Salesforce is the #1 AI CRM, where humans with agents drive customer success together. Here, ambition meets action. Tech meets trust. And innovation isn’t a buzzword — it’s a way of life. The world of work as we know it is changing and we're looking for Trailblazers who are passionate about bettering business and the world through AI, driving innovation, and keeping Salesforce's core values at the heart of it all.

Ready to level-up your career at the company leading workforce transformation in the agentic era? You’re in the right place! Agentforce is the future of AI, and you are the future of Salesforce.

The Experience

As a member of the Salesforce Quality team, you will use agile methodologies to plan, coordinate, and lead customer engagements that result in automated tests and input to product teams. You will use your skills to extract user scenarios from conversations and data, then translate your findings into automatable test plans. You bring a strong quality mindset and a natural curiosity to learn our customers' business, ensuring everyone receives high-quality deliverables. This role is 1-3 days per week in office.

What You'll Actually Be Doing

Plan and deliver test automation and automation frameworks with a quality-first mindset, including end-to-end, cross-cloud integration automation using both User Interface (UI) and Application Programming Interface (API) approaches.
Partner with engineers, product managers, and design leads to ensure features meet business and quality requirements, and participate in Test Design Review Boards across clouds.
Communicate with customers to understand real-world usage, build test cases, and advocate for customer-driven enhancements.
Mentor and coach team members across scrum teams, and monitor feature-level quality health metrics including test coverage, test health, and testability.

You're Our Person If...

10+ years of software engineering, quality assurance and engineering, usability, or business analysis experience.
Proficiency in JavaScript and Java, with hands-on experience writing functional automation for both UI and API layers.
Solid understanding of Object-Oriented Programming, relational databases, and Structured Query Language (SQL).
Experience with agile development methodology and the ability to communicate technical information clearly across teams.

Even Better If...

Professional experience applying AI in an enterprise software context.
Salesforce platform experience or Salesforce certifications.
Familiarity with developer tools such as git, Maven, or Eclipse Integrated Development Environment (IDE).
A related technical degree.
