About The Role
We are seeking a talented Salesforce Developer to join our Product Engineering Team at Sage, based in Winnersh (Reading area), UK. This hybrid role requires working onsite three days a week, offering a dynamic environment where innovation and collaboration thrive. As a key member of the Sage People team, you will be responsible for designing, developing, and maintaining high-quality Salesforce solutions that support our global SaaS product. Sage People is built on the Salesforce platform and serves a worldwide customer base, focusing on scalable, long-term architecture, and code quality. This is a hands-on engineering position that emphasizes technical excellence and solution delivery, rather than administration or bespoke customer development.
The role offers the opportunity to work closely with a multidisciplinary team of developers, testers, architects, and product managers. You will contribute to technical design discussions, system architecture, and the implementation of new features, including AI-driven capabilities. The environment encourages shared ownership, continuous learning, and technical innovation, particularly around Salesforce and emerging AI technologies. You will be instrumental in translating complex business requirements into robust technical solutions, supporting the ongoing evolution of our product roadmap.
