About the Role
Lyft is seeking a Salesforce Architect to lead the architecture of their commercial platform, focusing on growth through acquisition. This role involves defining target-state architecture, consolidating CRM environments, and managing data unification and federation. You will collaborate with various departments to transform the delivery function into a business enabler.
Responsibilities
- Drive enterprise-wide programs articulating program/project strategies on enabling technologies leveraging the Salesforce Platform.
- Identify and drive Lyft’s organizational needs for Salesforce foundations, define business or technology architecture, plan large project delivery, and oversee solution design and implementation.
- Effectively drive user experience and design strategies across the enterprise for platform adoption.
- Advise and mentor diverse teams and product groups on technical and functional delivery aspects at a program level, using influence and adaptive communication strategies.
- Lead large cross-team system design discussions, offering alternate choices, trade-offs, and impact analysis with a focus on long-term solutions.
- Provide guidance on application and integration development best practices, Enterprise Architecture standards, and functional/technical solution architecture, including environment management, testing of the Salesforce Platform.
- Provide evidence-based design patterns for development of solutions on the Salesforce platform such as managed vs unmanaged packages, config vs low-code vs code, custom build vs native/appExchange offerings.
- Drive the adoption of best engineering development practices across multiple Salesforce Orgs and promote the creation of application and technical design documents that align with Salesforce best practices and seamless integration into Lyft's infrastructure.
- Possess deep understanding of native Salesforce features and functionality, as well as the ability to model a role hierarchy, data model, and appropriate sharing mechanisms.
- Identify and lead internal strategic initiatives to grow Salesforce adoption and return on investment and serve as an active contributor to engineering.
- Identification and proactive management of risk areas across the enterprise and commitment to seeing an issue through to complete resolution.
- Lead assessment of architecture environment and requirements and design sound, scalable, and high-performing solutions on the Salesforce Platform that meet Single Sign-on (SSO) requirements.
- Lead the technical integration of acquired companies' CRM and GTM systems, including org strategy (consolidate vs. federate), data migration, deduplication and identity resolution, object and picklist harmonization, and decommissioning of legacy orgs.
- Define and maintain the multi-org architecture and data model, including cross-org reporting, shared reference data, and territory/hierarchy design that survives each acquisition.
- Own the integration architecture connecting Salesforce to middleware (Boomi, Workato) and the wider GTM stack, and re-platform acquired companies' equivalents onto Lyft standards.
- Partner with Privacy, Legal, and Security on data residency, retention, and subject-rights requirements as newly acquired entities bring additional countries into scope.
