Part-time Salesforce Technical Expert

We are a B2B SaaS company in the Salesforce ecosystem looking for a deeply technical Salesforce expert to work with us on a consultative, part-time basis — becoming the trusted technical face of our company for customers and prospects across the globe. This is a rare hybrid role: you need genuine, hands-on Salesforce engineering depth and world-class presentation skills. A typical engagement includes watching every Salesforce release, distilling the technical changes that matter, building a compelling presentation, and delivering it to our customers and prospects in the US and internationally — live and via webinar. You are not a sales rep and not a slide designer. You are the credible technical voice in the room that makes enterprise buyers trust us.
