Senior Enterprise Business Systems Engineer US Remote The Role We're hiring a Senior Enterprise Business Systems Engineer to develop, integrate, and optimize the platforms that power Nasuni's Go-to-Market operations. Salesforce is the core CRM. You'll work across Salesforce and a modern GTM technology ecosystem — including platforms like HubSpot, Workato, Fivetran, and Snowflake — to build solutions that are scalable, well-engineered, and ready for what comes next. What comes next is a shift toward headless, automation-centered CRM — composable, API-first, and designed for the agentic era. We're moving beyond monolithic CRM toward an intelligent, event-driven GTM platform where autonomous agents, real-time data flows, and human decision-makers work together. You'll be a key engineer building that future. This role is for someone who sees CRM not as a record system but as the nerve center of a modern revenue engine. What You'll Do Salesforce Development - Develop andmaintain scalable solutions using Apex, Lightning Web Components, Salesforce Flow, Platform Events, and APIs. - Build towarda composable CRM model — decoupling business logic from UI, favoring APIs and events, and enabling agentic workflows across the GTM stack. - Reduce technical debt, improve performance, and enforce engineering best practices across the platform. Integrations & Automation - Collaborate with integration engineers to design and build connections between Salesforce and the broader GTM ecosystem usingWorkato, REST APIs, webhooks, and platform events. - Develop andmaintain Salesforce-side integration patterns — event-driven triggers, API endpoints, data mapping, and error handling — that support enterprise-grade reliability. - Partner on automation workflows that span multiple platforms, contributing CRMexpertise to cross-functional integration initiatives. GTM Technology Ecosystem Support and develop integrations across a modern revenue technology stack, including Salesforce, HubSpot, Fivetran, Workato, and Snowflake — as well as tools like Gong, Clari, 6sense, Qualified, Gainsight, Outreach, LeanData, and others. - Partner with Revenue Operations, Marketing Operations, and Customer Success to keep tools optimized, data flowing cleanly, and reportingtrustworthy. - Contribute CRM and platformexpertise as new tools are evaluated, onboarded, and integrated into the stack. Data & SQL - Write andoptimize SQL queries for data analysis, reporting validation, troubleshooting, and data quality investigations related to CRM and GTM systems. - Collaborate with the data warehousing team on Snowflake integrations, ensuring CRM and GTM data flows cleanly into the warehouse for reporting, attribution, and BI. - Support data governance initiatives — deduplication, enrichment, and lifecycle management — across the CRM and GTM ecosystem. Delivery & Operations - Own technical delivery from design through deployment. Write specs, test plans, anddeployment runbooks. - Troubleshoot production issues and drive root cause analysis. - Manage CI/CD pipelines and deployment automation using Gearset and Git. - Mentor fellow developers through code reviews and technical guidance. AI & Automation - Use AI-assisted development tools to accelerate engineering whilemaintaining code quality and ownership. - Identifyopportunities for AI-enabled automation — agentic workflows, intelligent routing, predictive operations — with appropriate governance. - Contribute to Nasuni's vision of an agentic GTM platform where AI agents augment routine revenue operations. Qualifications Must Have - 7+ years in enterprise application engineering, including 5+ years of Salesforce development. - Deep hands-on experience with Salesforce Sales Cloud, Service Cloud, CPQ, and Experience Cloud. - Strong Apex, LWC, Salesforce Flow, and Salesforce API skills. - Experience designing and supporting integrations between Salesforce and other SaaS platforms in a GTM ecosystem. - SQL proficiency — comfortable writing queries for data analysis, troubleshooting, and reporting validation. - Experience with REST APIs, event-driven integrations, webhooks, auth protocols, and data sync patterns. - CI/CD and Git-based development (Gearset or similar). - Salesforce Platform Developer I + Administrator certifications. - Bachelor's in CS, IS, or equivalent professional experience.

Where We're Headed We're building toward a next-generation GTM platform: - Headless CRM — decoupling the user experience from the underlying platform so teams can interact with CRM data without being confined to a single application's UI. - Composable integration — iPaaS, cloud data platforms, and intelligent middleware stitching best-of-breed tools into a unified revenue operating system. - Agentic workflows — AI agents connected through Model Context Protocols (MCPs) that can eliminate greywork and accelerate productivity and growth. - Event-driven data where it matters — selectively replacing batch syncs with real-time patterns in the parts of the stack where latency has a measurable business impact. - Data activation — applying mindful, thoughtful governance to our data; understanding its lifecycle, supporting curation and definitions; creating integrations and automations that are optimized for scale and value.
