Salesforce Solutions Architect

Location: United Kingdom

Who are we?

At memoryBlue, we’re more than just a sales development consultancy — we’re a launching pad for high-tech sales careers.

Founded in 2002, we help high-growth B2B technology companies accelerate pipeline and revenue through outsourced sales development. With offices across North America and Europe, and a global team of 300+ professionals, we support innovative startups and global tech leaders alike.

Our mission is twofold:

We’ve proudly supported some of the world’s most respected tech brands and continue to cultivate a culture built on curiosity, grit, and growth.

Why this role exists

As memoryBlue continues to scale, our systems need to evolve with us.

This is a senior role combining architecture, hands‑on technical leadership and platform ownership.

This role is responsible for how our systems are designed, built, and scaled.

You will lead the team that runs our core GTM systems (Salesforce and integrations), while setting the standards, structure, and roadmap that ensure everything works together cleanly.

In practice, that means:

Leading solution design and making key architectural decisions

Defining development standards, best practices and platform guardrails

Remaining hands‑on where needed with complex builds, Apex, LWC and integrations

Partnering with Sales, Marketing, and Delivery stakeholders to ensure platform solutions reflect how the business actually operates .Reducing rework, tech debt, and system friction.

Key Responsibilities (How you create impact)

Team Leadership & Stakeholder Engagement

Lead and develop a team of Salesforce and GTM systems specialists, owning team delivery, prioritisation, and individual growth

Drive sprint planning, backlog management, and capacity planning to ensure the team delivers against both strategic initiatives and day-to-day platform support

Act as the primary technical point of contact for senior leadership, translating complex architectural decisions into clear business terms

System Architecture & Platform Strategy

Own the Salesforce architecture across our GTM tech stack, defining solution designs, integration patterns, and platform standards that ensure scalability and long-term maintainability

Lead architectural decision-making and provide hands-on guidance to the team throughout delivery — reviewing builds, identifying issues early, and iterating on solutions where needed

Ensure systems operate as a connected ecosystem across Salesforce and the broader GTM toolset.

Stay current with the Salesforce roadmap and pragmatically incorporate new capabilities into the platform strategy

Deployment, SDLC & Integrations

Design and implement a deployment process and CI/CD pipeline, establishing version control, release management, and testing standards across the team

Own end-to-end delivery across the full SDLC — from requirements and solution design through build, testing (unit, integration, UAT), release, and post-deployment support

Build and maintain integrations via REST/SOAP APIs and middleware platforms such as n8n and Zapier

Define standards for data structure, quality, and consistency, and establish monitoring and failure recovery processes across integrated systems

Security, Compliance & Governance

Own Salesforce security model (access, permissions, sharing)

Ensure compliance with client and regulatory requirements (GDPR, data handling)

Define practical governance around data, audits, and retention

Partner with IT and leadership on broader security posture and risk management

Key Measures of Success

Platform Scalability: Systems support growth without increasing complexity or tech debt

System Reliability: Integrations operate consistently with minimal disruption

Delivery Predictability: Roadmap initiatives delivered on time with measurable impact

Data Integrity: High-quality, trusted data across all GTM systems

Security & Compliance: Security and compliance standards are consistently met

Team Effectiveness: High-performing team with clear ownership and accountability

What Makes Someone Successful in This Role

Proven experience as a Salesforce Architect or in a senior Salesforce delivery role, with a track record of owning complex, end-to-end implementations

Strong commercial awareness - understands how systems support revenue generation

Ability to balance long-term thinking with day-to-day execution

Confident working with senior stakeholders and client-facing teams

Comfortable operating at both strategic and hands-on levels, with the credibility to earn trust from both technical teams and senior stakeholders
