Delta’s Salesforce COE is responsible for enabling all business units who adopt Salesforce products – this means you need to be naturally curious, driven to understand by asking questions, focused on optimization, willing to explain to less experienced team members both in IT and the business, and able to quickly pivot between diverse business units with widely differing goals. It’s critical as a member of the COE to be a standard-bearer for best practices, Salesforce knowledge, and making Delta a better place.

The Portfolio Architect role is one of solution-oriented design. This role partners with our various domains to ensure programs involving Salesforce have a sound architecture. The Portfolio Architect plays the Domain Architect's role on projects as needed providing the conceptual, logical and physical architecture, defining best suited technology. This includes designing effective, efficient innovative Salesforce solutions, defining modernization and improvements to existing systems, and combining a high level of Salesforce expertise with aviation industry standards to drive change and innovation across business lines. This high-level role requires aptitude in understanding current business needs and anticipating future business needs, while designing integrated solutions that are agile, durable, and stabile. This Portfolio Architect role will also be responsible for mentoring other Developers on the team as well as serving as a primary liaison for the Salesforce COE to teams including information security and our Cloud COE (AWS).
