Senior Process Architect, Salesforce

Delta Air Lines — Atlanta, Georgia, United States

At Delta, we connect people and cultures, power extraordinary experiences, and shape the future of travel. Here, you'll work on complex challenges on a global scale, using augmented intelligence to build emerging technologies, amplify human potential and continuously grow the skills that keep you at the forefront of what's next.​

The Salesforce Center of Excellence ensures Salesforce solutions across the enterprise are secure, scalable, maintainable, and aligned with Delta's technology strategy. We are seeking a technologist who happens to be an expert in Salesforce, not a Salesforce expert whose experience ends at the platform boundary.

As a Senior Process Architect, you will serve as a technical leader for Delta's Salesforce ecosystem. You will design enterprise-scale solutions, establish engineering standards, mentor technical teams, and govern architectural decisions across critical platforms. This role combines architecture leadership with hands-on development, requiring both strategic thinking and technical depth.

Key Responsibilities:

Architecture & Governance • Design and govern scalable, secure, and maintainable Salesforce solutions aligned with Delta's enterprise technology strategy. • Serve as the technical authority and final approver for significant Salesforce architecture and integration decisions. • Partner with fellow Process Architects and the Salesforce Certified Technical Architect (CTA) to define and evolve enterprise standards, reference architectures, and engineering best practices. • Evaluate technical tradeoffs and guide teams toward solutions that meet business needs without creating unnecessary complexity or technical debt. • Drive a platform-first architecture approach that leverages native Salesforce capabilities while meeting Delta’s enterprise standards for security, scalability, and reliability.

Engineering & Integration • Design and review integrations using APIs, event-driven architectures, middleware, and cloud-native integration patterns. • Contribute hands-on development in Apex, Lightning Web Components, and related technologies to maintain technical depth and engineering credibility. • Reduce technical debt, performance bottlenecks, and architectural risk across the Salesforce ecosystem. • Evaluate emerging technologies and champion the practical use of AI to improve software delivery, developer productivity, and solution quality.

Technical Leadership • Mentor developers, administrators, architects, and technical leads while raising the quality, consistency, and effectiveness of engineering across Delta's Salesforce ecosystem • Lead architecture reviews, design workshops, and code reviews while influencing technical direction through expertise, collaboration, and data-driven decision making. • Support critical production incidents, lead root cause analysis, and drive improvements that strengthen platform reliability, operational resilience, and business outcomes. • Act with urgency, ownership, and accountability in support of Delta's operational objectives.
