Salesforce Solution Engineer (Developer)

Guidehouse is a consulting firm that specializes in SAAS, PAAS, and Cloud Consulting. They are seeking a Salesforce Solution Engineer (Developer) to write Apex triggers, build Lightning Web Components, design integrations, and participate in Agile ceremonies, among other responsibilities.

Responsibilities:

• Write clean, bulkified Apex triggers with a handler framework, service and selector layers, Queueable/Batch/Schedulable, Platform Events with governor limits accounted for in design, not discovered in UAT
• Build Lightning Web Components with modern JavaScript, and Experience Cloud pages and portals for constituent, supplier, and partner audiences
• Design and build integrations: REST/SOAP callouts, Named Credentials and External Credentials, External Services, Platform Events, and MuleSoft or agency ESB patterns, including authentication, retry, and error-handling design
• Write meaningful Apex unit tests and Jest tests for LWC, assertions that verify behavior, not coverage padding to clear the 75% floor
• Participate fully in Agile ceremonies: backlog grooming, estimation, sprint planning, daily standups, demos, and retrospectives with government product owners in the room
• Partner with solution architects, business analysts, testers, and release engineers; translate user stories into technical design and flag ambiguity before the sprint, not during it
• Support source-driven development and release management: Salesforce DX, Git branching and pull requests, code review, automated deployment pipelines, and sandbox/data seeding strategy across a multi-environment path to production
• Produce the technical documentation federal delivery requires, design specs, interface control documentation, configuration workbooks, and deployment runbooks

Requirements:

• Bachelor's degree required. Preferred in Computer Science, Information Systems, Engineering, or a related technical discipline

• Demonstrated Apex proficiency: trigger frameworks, asynchronous processing, SOQL/SOSL optimization, bulkification, exception handling, and governor limit management
• Lightning Web Component development with solid modern JavaScript fundamentals (ES6+, promises, async/await, DOM); Aura exposure is a plus for legacy support
• Working command of the Salesforce data and security model: objects and relationships, record types, profiles and permission sets, org-wide defaults, sharing rules and apex sharing, and field-level security
• Declarative automation depth; Flow in its current forms and the judgment to choose configuration over code and defend that choice
• Integration experience with REST/JSON APIs, OAuth 2.0 and JWT bearer flows, and Named Credentials
• Source-driven development practice: Salesforce DX, Git, pull-request-based code review, and a CI/CD toolchain (Gearset, Copado, Jenkins, GitHub Actions, or equivalent)
• Agile delivery experience using Jira or a comparable tool
• Salesforce Platform Developer I certification, or ability to obtain within 90 days of hire
• U.S. citizenship, and ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. federal security clearance
• Ability to write clearly and explain technical decisions to non-technical government stakeholders
• OmniStudio experience: OmniScript, FlexCards, Integration Procedures, and DataRaptors, particularly guided intake and case-worker experiences built on PSS
• Active security clearance (Secret, Top Secret, or TS/SCI), active and current clearance is strongly preferred and will accelerate onboarding
• Prior federal or public sector Salesforce delivery, including work in Government Cloud or Government Cloud Plus
