About the Role
Our client is seeking a Salesforce Platform Product Owner to drive the strategic health, security posture, and architectural evolution of their enterprise Salesforce footprint. This role operates at the intersection of platform governance, operational risk, and continuous delivery — owning the Salesforce platform as a product with a bias for proactive management, compliance, and long-term sustainability.

- Lead the organization's response to Salesforce security enforcement changes, including MFA mandates, phishing-resistant authentication, email domain verification, and transaction security policy enhancements.
- Maintain a controls posture aligned with SOX compliance, auditability, and enterprise risk frameworks, serving as the primary liaison to Salesforce Security and internal Cybersecurity teams for incident response and threat landscape awareness.
- Govern the lifecycle of platform features, ensuring timely adoption of evolving platform capabilities and proactive retirement of deprecated features.
- Drive architectural standards across managed/unmanaged packages, permission set design, integration patterns, and Data Cloud deployment practices.
- Champion spec-driven, governance-first delivery practices in alignment with the Software Reliability Framework and Accelerated Delivery Office (ADO) standards.
