About SalesforceSalesforce 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.

You partner with Sales to help customers feel confident to buy, confident to build and confident to operate.
- Our team is evolving how we sell. Solution Engineers lead the early stages of the customer journey, from vision and concept to technical validation and working prototypes, then hand off to delivery teams. You will act as the "front door for IT," navigating deeper technical waters to help customers connect with their clients in new ways.
- You won't just demo features. You'll connect what the platform does to what it means for the customer's business, using AI, Agentforce, Data Cloud, Core CRM and Slack to deliver measurable outcomes collaborating with the customer and internal business stakeholders.
- You will guide deal strategy by providing deep insight into the technical and business buyers, acting as a trusted advisor who drives innovation and improves business performance.

- Build and present tailored demos and prototypes for multiple personas, such as financial advisors, loan officers, relationship managers and executives, showing a clear path to value across Salesforce products.
- Act as a trusted advisor to senior business and technology leaders. Evaluate solution options, understand the customer's architecture and drive consensus on future-state roadmaps.
- Coordinate architects, forward deployed engineers, partners and product teams, hand off cleanly, and contribute reusable assets and customer stories.
- Ability to travel based on territory alignment and region.
Required Qualifications- Hands-on reps with agentic coding tools - Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Agentforce Vibes. You're using these daily to spin up custom demos and POCs, not just talking about them.
- Real depth and POVs on AI/data architecture - RAG pipelines, grounding strategies, agentic governance, and hybrid human+autonomous enterprise design.
- Fluency in Headless + composable architecture - specifically our Headless CRM / Data 360 messaging, and how it does and will continue to apply to use cases like KYC/AML, loan origination, and wealth platforms.
- Hands-on experience with the Salesforce platform and its AI, data and industry products, including a minimum of three active Salesforce certifications.
- 6+ years of pre-sales experience as a solution or sales engineer at Salesforce, another CRM or enterprise software company, or a consultancy.
- Knowledge of related applications, relational database and web technology
