Join Barclays and hackajob’s collaboration to shape the future of finance!
About the Role
In collaboration with Barclays, we’re recruiting exceptional Salesforce Developers for the Private Bank Wealth Management team. This role will focus on Project PRISM, a major 2026 front-office productivity initiative aimed at integrating core banking systems, re-engineering processes, and enhancing advisor workflows for higher-impact engagements.
You’ll play a pivotal role in delivering greenfield development on Salesforce, designing microservices, API-led integrations, and orchestration layers that enable scalable, resilient, and GenAI-powered workflows. Working with platforms like Avaloq and enterprise data systems, you’ll accelerate technological innovation in a fast-paced, agile environment, with opportunities to expand into CLM (Contract Lifecycle Management) applications.
A strong Salesforce background, alongside Java or equivalent backend development experience, is essential. With growth potential into leadership responsibilities, this role is ideal for developers who want to shape the future of Salesforce and wealth management technology.
This position is based at our Glasgow Campus.
