Overview

We are seeking an experienced Senior Salesforce Engineer to join our team, with a primary focus on designing and implementing API-based integrations between Salesforce and real-time or event-driven PHP applications. You will play a critical role in building scalable, secure, and efficient integration workflows, collaborating closely with US-based teams to deliver solutions that align with business objectives and enhance user experiences.

 

Key Responsibilities

  • Architect, develop, and maintain robust API integrations (REST/SOAP) between Salesforce and PHP-based applications, ensuring seamless real-time or event-driven data synchronization.

  • Design and implement end-to-end integration solutions for standard Salesforce use cases, including contacts, opportunities, accounts, custom objects, and more.

  • Leverage Salesforce APIs (e.g., REST, SOAP, Bulk, Streaming) and authentication flows (e.g., OAuth 2.0, JWT) to enable secure and efficient data exchange.

  • Build and optimize event-driven architectures using Salesforce Platform Events, Change Data Capture (CDC), or Webhooks for real-time data processing.

  • Collaborate with US-based stakeholders, including developers, product managers, and business analysts, to gather requirements and ensure alignment on integration goals.

  • Write clean, maintainable, and well-documented code, adhering to Salesforce and PHP best practices.

  • Debug, test, and maintain integration workflows using tools like Postman, Salesforce Developer Console, or Workbench to ensure reliability and performance.

  • Optimize integrations for scalability, handling large datasets, and minimizing latency in real-time applications.

  • Ensure security compliance, including managing API tokens, encryption, and adherence to Salesforce security best practices.

  • Contribute to the documentation of integration processes, workflows, and technical specifications for cross-team reference.

 
Required Skills

  • Must-Have: 6-10 years of hands-on experience with Salesforce development and API-based integrations, with a focus on connecting Salesforce to external systems like PHP applications.

  • Deep expertise in end-to-end integration development using Salesforce APIs (REST, SOAP, Bulk, Streaming) and authentication mechanisms (OAuth 2.0, JWT, Connected Apps).

  • Strong hands-on experience with real-time and event-driven integration patterns, including Salesforce Platform Events, Change Data Capture, or Webhooks.

  • Proficiency in working with standard Salesforce objects (e.g., Contacts, Opportunities, Accounts, Custom Objects) and data sync patterns for seamless integration.

  • Experience integrating Salesforce with PHP applications, with familiarity in PHP frameworks (e.g., Laravel, Symfony) for backend connectivity.

  • Proficient in debugging, testing, and maintaining integration workflows using tools like Postman, Salesforce Workbench, or Apex debugging.

  • Strong understanding of Salesforce development tools, including Apex, Visualforce, Lightning Web Components (LWC), and SOQL/SOSL.

  • Familiarity with version control systems (e.g., Git) and CI/CD pipelines for deployment of integration solutions.

  • Knowledge of Salesforce security best practices, including data encryption, secure API access, and compliance with industry standards.

  • Excellent collaboration and communication skills to work effectively with US-based teams, including the ability to align on requirements and present technical solutions.

  • Experience with Agile/Scrum methodologies and tools like Jira or Confluence for project management.

 

Nice-to-Have Skills

  • Experience with Salesforce Experience Cloud or Marketing Cloud integrations.

  • Familiarity with message queues (e.g., Kafka, RabbitMQ) for event-driven architectures.

  • Knowledge of cloud platforms (e.g., AWS, Azure) for hosting or integrating with PHP applications.

  • Exposure to Salesforce DX for modern development workflows.
