Staff Salesforce Engineer (f/m/x)

Kurz zusammengefasst

CarOnSale is an AI‑driven B2B platform that powers used‑car trading across Europe. The company runs a mature Salesforce organisation that underpins its "one platform, one profit engine" approach, linking pricing, logistics, financing and other services for more than 40,000 buyers in over 20 countries. The Staff Salesforce Engineer will own the team's Salesforce architecture, deciding when to use declarative tools versus custom code and building scalable, well‑tested solutions. Daily work includes leading solution design, documenting decisions, creating reusable patterns, and reducing technical debt by adding tests and simplifying changes. The role also requires aligning engineering, product and business teams on the Salesforce roadmap, driving cross‑functional initiatives, and raising code quality through reviews, pairing, onboarding and mentorship. Additionally, the engineer will establish AI‑enabled development standards, integrating tools such as Claude Code, Cursor or GitHub Copilot into the team's workflow and ensuring AI‑generated code meets the same quality gates as human‑written code. Candidates must bring more than a decade of software engineering experience with deep, hands‑on expertise in Apex, Lightning Web Components and Flows, and a solid grasp of Salesforce data modelling and integration patterns like REST APIs and Platform Events. They should also have broad engineering knowledge of backend services, databases and micro‑services, and be proficient with CI/CD tools for Salesforce (e.g., Gearset, Copado), the Salesforce CLI, Git and static analysis. A proven record of improving mature orgs, staying involved post‑go‑live and elevating surrounding engineers is essential, as is clear communication in English at a C1 level. Nice‑to‑have experience includes working in agile delivery frameworks such as Scrum or Kanban and using Jira and Confluence. The position is based in central Berlin with a hybrid schedule: two days in the office and three days remote, plus 25 "work from anywhere" days annually. Benefits feature 28 days of leave, a generous pension contribution, a fully paid public‑transport ticket, fitness subsidies, virtual stock options, a modern IT setup, structured onboarding, and active diversity initiatives.
