SALESFORCE CLOUD EXPERTISE (Any of 2 clouds as mentioned below)

Sales Cloud

Deep expertise in Lead-to-Opportunity lifecycle, Territory Management, Forecasting, and Activity Timelines. Build AI-assisted rep coaching nudges and pipeline automations using Agentforce Sales Agents and Next Best Action.

Service Cloud

Proficiency in Case Management, Entitlements, SLA enforcement, Omni-Channel routing, and Knowledge Base management. Deploy Agentforce Service Agents for intelligent case deflection, auto-resolution, and escalation management.

Experience Cloud

Build partner portals, patient portals, and B2B communities using LWR sites. Integrate Einstein personalisation, AI-powered search, and audience segmentation for contextual digital experiences.

Revenue Cloud (CPQ & Billing)

Configure and extend CPQ product catalogues, pricing waterfalls, bundle rules, discount schedules, and approval chains. Automate quote generation and contract amendments using AI Prompt Templates and Agentforce.

Health Cloud

Develop on Care Plans, Patient 360 timeline, Referral Management, and the FHIR Interoperability Hub. Implement AI-assisted care gap identification and proactive patient outreach automations.

Data Cloud & Marketing Cloud

Build Data Cloud calculated insights and activation flows that feed personalised journeys in Marketing Cloud. Understand how unified customer profiles power AI segmentation and Einstein-driven content recommendations.

INDUSTRY DOMAIN KNOWLEDGE (Any one of following)

Healthcare & Life Sciences

• Understanding of Patient Lifecycle: acquisition, care coordination, treatment, discharge, and follow-up automation

• HIPAA compliance, PHI handling, field-level encryption, and consent management within Salesforce

• HL7/FHIR R4 standards and Salesforce Health Cloud Interoperability Hub integration patterns with EHR systems

• Prior Authorization, referral management, care plan automation, and population health workflow awareness

• Value-based care models and how AI can drive outcomes tracking and proactive care gap closure

Hi-Tech & Software

• SaaS business models: ARR, MRR, NRR, churn, expansion revenue, and renewal lifecycle awareness

• Lead-to-cash process knowledge: SDR workflows, AE handoffs, CSM playbooks, and renewal automation

• Partner ecosystems: deal registration, co-sell motions, reseller pricing tiers, and MDF management

• Product-Led Growth (PLG) integration: product usage telemetry triggering Salesforce actions via MCP/API

• Software entitlement management, license tracking, and usage-based billing awareness

FUNCTIONAL KNOWLEDGE (FOUNDATION FOR AI SOLUTIONS)

Deep functional knowledge enables professionals to design AI-powered Salesforce solutions that reflect real business intent — not just technical requirements. This is what separates good implementations from transformative ones.

Sales Process Understanding

A developer who understands the full sales funnel — from lead generation and qualification through negotiation to closed-won — can build smarter Agentforce Sales Agents, more meaningful pipeline automations, and AI scoring models grounded in real selling behaviour, without requiring constant BA intervention.

Customer Service Operations

Knowing how service teams triage, escalate, and resolve cases across channels enables developers to design intelligent routing rules, AI deflection agents with real resolution paths, and SLA-aware automations that genuinely reduce average handle time and improve CSAT.

Revenue & Quoting Cycles

Understanding how products are configured, priced, discounted, and contracted allows developers to engineer dynamic CPQ rules, AI-assisted quote recommendations, and approval chains that Finance and Sales Ops teams will actually trust in production.

Healthcare Workflow Literacy

Developers aware of care coordination workflows, patient consent flows, clinical documentation cycles, and referral processes can embed Agentforce agents meaningfully into Health Cloud environments — designing for real clinical scenarios, not just demo happy paths.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
