We partner closely with these internal customers to identify, plan, design, and implement high-impact projects that leverage all of the capabilities of the Salesforce platform.

Your job:
As a Salesforce Developer at Indeed, you will be responsible for developing business features and technical capabilities within Indeed's Salesforce instance and related data, services, and applications. You will be highly familiar with our core data models and APIs in Salesforce and internal data systems and how Opportunities, Accounts, Contacts, and Leads map to key business processes in our Sales and Client Success groups. You will drive the implementation and delivery of development projects and work directly with technical leaders as well as Product Managers, Program Managers, and business stakeholders to ensure the success of your projects.

You'll be expected to grow your technical skills and knowledge of the Salesforce platform, learning new Salesforce products and technologies as the team is implementing them. For some projects, you'll also work full-stack on Indeed's internal Java and Python development platform. Your projects will require the creation of new components, data models, and APIs, as well as the addition of new functionality to existing components, data models, and APIs.

Responsibilities:

• Participate in all phases of the software development life cycle including functional analysis, development, prototyping, coding, testing, deployment, and support.
