Do you love building on the Salesforce platform and have a track record of delivering solutions that actually stick? Do you get energy from helping other developers level up, and can you hold a team accountable without micromanaging them? Are you the kind of person who can talk architecture with a developer in the morning and walk a client through a business case in the afternoon?
If so, we want to talk. Mission in Motion is looking for a Salesforce Team Lead who can develop and lead, not just one or the other. You will own the technical direction of our Salesforce practice, mentor a team of consultants and developers, and stay close enough to the code that your technical credibility never comes into question.
