• Provide level-of-effort estimates and clearly explain solution benefits, risks, feasibility, functionality, and fit for business stakeholders and technical governance forums.
• Support technical design authority and architecture review discussions, including presentations and follow-up clarification where needed.
• Contribute to capability and platform roadmaps, bringing a practical view of Salesforce opportunities, dependencies, and delivery priorities.
• Communicate complex concepts clearly, visually, and in writing so stakeholders can make confident decisions.
• Build strong relationships and act as a trusted advisor to business and technical teams.
• Coach and guide a multi-disciplinary team of Salesforce professionals, helping to move work forward across multiple priorities.
• Provide hands-on support across delivery activities when needed, including requirements, testing, solution presentations, and sizing of customer needs.
