Job Details

Salesforce 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 were 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. Agentforce is the future of AI, and you are the future of Salesforce.

Key Role Responsibilities

  • Design and implement a robust data model that integrates data from core B2B systems, including Snowflake, Salesforce Data 360, multiple Salesforce orgs, Informatica MDM, and Amazon data lakes.
  • Design and evolve scalable end-to-end data architecture; define standards for data modeling, ingestion framework, pipelines, data quality, etc.
  • Architect tables and views to clearly define and calculate critical metrics (e.g., lead conversion, MQL, marketing driven pipe, ROI).
  • Translate business needs for marketing performance measurement, customer segmentation, targeting, and personalization into precise data requirements and model designs. Translate functional and non-functional requirements (e.g., analytical performance, query latency, automation throughput) into optimal logical, conceptual, and physical data model designs.
  • Partner with Data Engineering to design data models that leverage advanced Snowflake features (e.g., clustering keys, materialized views, micro-partitions, time travel) to optimize query performance and cost efficiency.
  • Master the benefits and trade-offs of modeling on each platform, such as leveraging Snowflake's zerocopy data sharing vs. federating queries to S3.
  • Enforce rigorous data cataloging and metadata standards to ensure all marketing metrics have a single, unambiguous definition across the organization.
  • Collaborate with other Data and Application Architects to ensure the data warehouse model aligns with the overall enterprise data strategy and upstream/downstream system architectures.
  • Ensure the data model is intuitive and accessible for all Data Scientists, Analysts, Data and BI Engineers who build curated datasets, predictive models, and dashboards to measure and optimize marketing performance.

Required Qualifications

  • Master's or Ph.D in Computer Science, Information Systems, or a related quantitative field.
  • 10+ years of handson data modeling, data architecture, or database design experience.
  • 5+ years of experience designing and implementing largescale Enterprise Data Warehouses.
  • Expertlevel knowledge of dimensional modeling (Star/Snowflake schemas) and its application to business intelligence, reporting, and machine learning workloads including feature engineering for attribution models, lead scoring, and propensity models.
  • Extensive experience with marketing data domains (e.g., campaign management, CRM, web analytics, attribution/marketing mix modeling, propensity modeling, forecasting, and optimization). Demonstrated ability to model complex business processes, including slowly changing dimensions and historical data tracking.
  • Proven, handson experience building and optimizing data models on a modern, cloudnative data warehouse platform, with deep expertise in Snowflake.
  • Advanced proficiency with SQL and DDL/DML, especially optimized for the Snowflake ecosystem. Familiarity with ETL tools (e.g., dbt, Fivetran), cloud services (AWS, GCP or Azure), and how to design data models that optimize their performance.
  • Expertlevel mastery of all major data modeling methodologies and implementation tradeoffs between them such as 3NF (for applications), Data Vault (for integration layers), and Star/Snowflake schemas (for data science).
  • Deep experience modeling Master Data Management golden records and hierarchies, and integrating them with operational and analytical systems (e.g., Informatica MDM).
  • Experience implementing Data Mesh principles: domain ownership of data products, data as a product mindset with clear SLAs and documentation, and federated governance that balances central standards with domain autonomy.
  • Experience designing data models that support ML feature engineering, including feature stores and feature registries. Understanding of how data modeling decisions impact feature freshness, model training pipelines, and realtime inference.
  • A proven track record of partnering directly with Data Engineering, Data Science, and Machine Learning Engineering teams to deliver data models that meet their specific needs. Must thrive in a highvelocity environment with rapid iteration cycles and be able to balance governance requirements with engineering agility.
  • Experience partnering with Data Governance teams to ensure models are compliant, secure, and integrated with the enterprise data catalog.
  • Exceptional communication skills. The ability to lead technical design discussions and articulate complex technical concepts and implementation tradeoffs to both technical and business stakeholders.
  • Highly organized and meticulous, with a passion for data accuracy and structural integrity.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Knowledge of Salesforce Data 360 platform with experience designing, deploying, and managing data model objects on enterprise deployments of Salesforce Data 360 is highly desirable.
  • Deep understanding of the data modeling challenges within a multiorg Salesforce CRM environment and a customer activation platform (Salesforce Data Cloud canonical model DLO/DMO).
