We’re Salesforce, the Customer Company, inspiring the future of business with AI+ Data +CRM. Leading with our core values, we help companies across every industry blaze new trails and connect with customers in a whole new way. And, we empower you to be a Trailblazer, too — driving your performance and career growth, charting new paths, and improving the state of the world. If you believe in business as the greatest platform for change and in companies doing well and doing good – you’ve come to the right place.

We are part of the Tableau Einstein organization within Salesforce, on a mission to help people see, understand, and take action on data. By taking an AI Agent first approach enabling individuals to transform data into visual and understandable formats, empowering them to make important decisions based on these insights. 

The Collaboration team is part of the Tableau Einstein Visualization Platform organization, focused on building the next generation of analytics to provide the best interactive visualization experience, embedded in users' workflows and integrated with modern platforms for effective engagement and collaboration, supporting timely and effective decision-making. The Collaboration team’s mission is to empower business users and data analysts to collaborate effortlessly at every stage of their data journey, bringing insights directly into their flow of work through an seamless experience in Slack. We cover a broad technical stack, presenting challenging, complex technical and user problems that offer exceptional opportunities for growth and impact.

We are looking for people with a background in building enterprise analytics applications. You are a technical leader with a passion for mentoring and leading projects toward technical excellence within the team. You thrive in a fast-paced, often ambiguous environment and are driven by a passion for challenging the status quo, articulating its value to others, and leading by example to make meaningful progress. This role offers an opportunity to shape and drive the early-stage development of our Tableau Einstein and Slack strategy as we develop key visualization, interactivity, and collaboration capabilities to empower users to explore and share AI-driven insights within their workflows.

It’s an exciting mission, and there’s no better time to join the team. If this resonates with you, we would love to hear from you.

• Active contributor of a scrum team building data visualizations, widgets, dashboards, and collaboration enabling users to explore their data and take actions
• Participate in design and code reviews, break down and estimate work, select and incorporate appropriate tools and frameworks for the job.  
• Proactively identify continuous improvement areas and drive initiatives to boost tooling, automation and integration speed focusing on developer productivity, release velocity and product quality.
• Explore, experiment and implement new Analytics platform capabilities powering Salesforce’s next generation analytics and intelligence applications. Rapidly iterate on proof-of-concept implementations to get new initiatives off the ground with an eye towards eventual productization, including opportunities to incorporate AI-driven enhancements.

You think far enough ahead to avoid tech debt, but know how to avoid over-engineering. You are agile and can prototype, learn, adapt, and pivot as needed.
• Familiar with DevOps practices. You treat operational issues as they are software problems. As you write your code you are already thinking about how to operate them efficiently in production.
