You thrive when collaborating with clients and teammates to define roadmaps, solve complex challenges, and deliver exceptional results. You're excited to mentor a team and grow our Salesforce capabilities.

You believe that leading means empowering, and that success comes from helping both your team and your clients build the right thing.
