Sr. Salesforce Developer

WE EMBRACE A TALENT-LED CULTURE

Our work is driven by our team’s desire to be pioneers.

In 2009, we created Robots & Pencils with the then-contrarian view that mobile would be more transformative than the Internet. Turns out we were right.

Today, our thinking is rooted in the belief that, in the age of unprecedented technology acceleration, maintaining a competitive advantage requires new strategies and a focus on innovation.

Our approach has been to create a company designed to follow the talent, allowing us to amass an unfair share of hyper-skilled people who call Robots & Pencils home. A team of people who not only develop innovative solutions to transform businesses, but also create products that have been previously inconceivable.

What are our core values?

• Strong Work Ethic
• Top Drawer

• We hire only the best talent we can find. You do remarkable things and solve tough problems where many others have failed before.

You are someone who enjoys communicating through code. You love to create and have a strong desire to learn. You have strong opinions but that are weakly held; you are humble yet confident. You have significant knowledge of the Salesforce platform; it’s strengths, it’s challenges, and will use your knowledge to bring exemplary solutions to life.
