- Develop Apex (classes and triggers), Lightning Components/LWC, and
declarative flows to extend Salesforce PSS for licensing and
regulatory workflows.
- Design and configure constituent-facing Digital Experience
(Community) sites including user registration, portal access, and
self-service licensing workflows.
- Design and implement role-based access controls, permission sets,
sharing rules, and data visibility patterns appropriate for
multi-agency government environments.
- Build and maintain REST and SOAP API integrations, platform events,
and outbound messaging to connect Salesforce PSS with external
agency and state systems.
- Build and maintain client trust with agency stakeholders; serve as
technical point of contact for agency technical teams.
