Salesforce Technical Lead

Careers at realfast.

At realfast.ai, we deliver superhuman quality at superhuman speed. We're building the first truly AI-native Salesforce implementation partner - not by replacing humans, but by amplifying what makes them exceptional.

Our Exo platform automates tedious work like unit testing and configuration management, giving developers 15-20 hours back per week for high-value work.

We only hire the best: developers who can leverage AI to focus on architecture, strategy, and complex problem-solving while shipping production-grade solutions faster than traditional consulting firms.

We're backed by PeakXV Partners (formerly Sequoia India & SEA) and RTP Global, and we're transforming how enterprise Salesforce implementations get built.

About role

We need a Salesforce Technical Lead who can architect enterprise solutions while leading our development team through hands-on mentorship and code. You'll design systems that scale, make architectural decisions that drive business outcomes, and build the technical foundation for AI-native Salesforce implementations.

This isn't a role where you review Jira tickets from an ivory tower. You'll write code, pair with developers, participate in on-call rotations for production support, and own outcomes end-to-end. You'll also interface directly with clients, translating business requirements into technical solutions and challenging assumptions when necessary.

What you'll do

• Lead through code: Write complex Apex and Lightning Web Components alongside your team, conduct code reviews that teach, and establish standards that accelerate delivery

• Architect enterprise solutions: Design end-to-end Salesforce implementations with technical architecture documents, data models, security strategies, and integration patterns that scale

• Drive technical decisions: Make architectural calls quickly with incomplete information, resolve blockers, and balance excellence with pragmatism

• Build AI-native delivery: Work with our Exo platform to automate repetitive tasks, implement CI/CD pipelines, and design workflows where AI handles routine work while humans handle complexity

• Interface with clients: Translate business requirements into technical solutions, present architecture to non-technical audiences, and build trust through delivery and transparency

What you'll bring

• Experience:

  • 7+ years of Salesforce development with 3+ years leading teams or architecting solutions

  • Active Salesforce certifications (Platform Developer II, Application Architect, System Architect, or Technical Architect)

  • Deep knowledge of Apex, SOQL, Lightning Web Components, Salesforce APIs, and integration patterns

  • Experience with DevOps tools, CI/CD pipelines, and middleware platforms (MuleSoft, Boomi, Workato)

  • Proven track record debugging complex production issues and architecting scalable solutions

  Approach:

  • AI-first mindset: Curiosity about how AI amplifies Salesforce expertise and willingness to rethink traditional workflows

  • Systems thinking: You see how technical decisions impact business operations, architect for scale, and think in leverage points

  • Leadership without authority: You mentor through pairing and code reviews, build consensus through credibility, and share accountability

  • Client relationships: You communicate technical concepts clearly, ask probing questions, and balance client input with best practices

Is this role for you?

• You'll thrive if you:

  • Get energy from solving complex technical problems over attending meetings

  • See AI as an opportunity to do your best work, not a threat

  • Thrive in ambiguity and prefer shipping imperfect solutions over perfect plans

  • Want end-to-end ownership and work at the intersection of AI and Salesforce

  • Are comfortable with rapid change and continuous learning

• This won't be a fit if you:

  • Prefer extensive process and documentation over rapid iteration

  • Need complete consensus before making technical decisions

  • Want a stable, predictable environment with minimal change

What We Offer

Professional Growth

• Work with Exo platform and proprietary AI tools before they're commoditized

• Support for Salesforce certification advancement (if required)

• Learn from founders who scaled systems from startup to super-app

Real Impact

• See your technical decisions drive measurable business outcomes

• Work on production-grade AI implementations, not pilots

• Build systems that scale with client growth

• Architect solutions for complex brownfield Salesforce orgs (the interesting problems)

• Shape how realfast approaches technical challenges
