The role blends customer interaction with product expertise in AI, no‑code platforms, and security solutions, particularly for the German‑speaking (DACH) market.

Your mission is twofold: • Empower Action: Drive adoption of Agentforce, enabling customers to build sophisticated AI agents through a seamless, low‑code interface. • Ensure Resilience: Sell the Security & Governance portfolio (Salesforce Shield, Event Monitoring, Data Mask, Backup & Restore) to safeguard agents in a secure, compliant environment.

Key Responsibilities • Showcase how Agentforce automates complex business processes using no‑code tools, making AI accessible to every business user across the DACH market. • Position Salesforce Shield and Event Monitoring as essential protection, ensuring data privacy and threat detection are native to the build. • Promote the speed and ease of our low‑code/no‑code platform, enabling customers to iterate at the speed of thought while maintaining enterprise‑grade resilience. • Partner with Account Owners to drive revenue by identifying “Agentic” use cases that require high levels of data protection and compliance. • Engage with CIOs/CISOs on security and resilience, and with COOs/CEOs on ROI through agentic automation.

Preferred Requirements • Passion for the “Vibecoding” trend and understanding how generative AI is shifting the development paradigm. • Familiarity with the Salesforce ecosystem, particularly Agentforce, Shield, and the Data Cloud foundation. • DACH Market Knowledge — a deep understanding of the enterprise technology landscape and compliance expectations in German‑speaking markets.

Together, we’ll bring the power of Agentforce to organizations of all sizes and deliver amazing experiences that customers love. Accommodations If you need a reasonable accommodation during the application or recruiting process, please submit a request via this Accommodations Request Form.
