Qualifications:

  • 5–7+ years of experience managing UX/UI cycles, specifically within the Salesforce suite.
  • Significant experience with the Salesforce suite of products, especially Service Cloud, Experience Cloud, Data 360, Marketing Cloud, and/or Agentforce.
  • Strong strategic thinking with the ability to align creative solutions with private-sector business objectives and stakeholder needs.
  • Deep familiarity with accessibility standards and modern design system requirements.
  • Proven leadership skills and experience in managing design for large, complex projects.
  • Excellent communication, presentation, and stakeholder management skills.
