Upgrade and change impact: Own the Salesforce and OmniStudio seasonal release and managed-package upgrade process. Coordinate scrum teams to assess impacts, identify deprecated or changed features, plan regression testing and remediation, track readiness and ensure risks are understood before activation. Environment strategy: Own environment governance, sandbox allocation and refresh processes, environment synchronisation and configuration consistency across development, test, UAT and production, balancing team isolation with frequent controlled integration. Risk and compliance: Maintain proportionate controls for access, segregation of duties, least privilege, vulnerability remediation, static code analysis and audit evidence, escalating material risks with clear options and recommendations. Stakeholder leadership: Partner with scrum leadership, architecture, the Salesforce Centre of Excellence, security, quality engineering, product and business teams to align priorities, communicate service performance and influence platform and delivery roadmaps.
