Partner cross-functionally : Collaborate daily with Ads Sales, Ads Operations, Product, Finance, Legal, Engineering, and GTM teams to translate ambiguous ads-business needs into durable Salesforce-based solutions. You might thrive in this role if you have: Advanced Salesforce development (Apex, async patterns, APIs) and data model expertise across account, opportunity, campaign/order, approval, billing, and reporting domains. Proven experience designing and implementing robust integrations between Salesforce, ads platforms, data warehouses, billing systems, and operational tools. Proven ability to build, test, document, and deploy scoped solutions using SDLC best practices in fast-moving, highly cross-functional environments. Strong communication skills and a track record of partnering with Ads Sales, Operations, Product, Finance, Legal, and Engineering teams to deliver complex requirements.
