Salesforce Developer

Nova is part of the family-owned Todd Corporation, one of New Zealand’s largest and most successful companies. We’re the ones who supply great value energy, broadband and mobile services to all kinds of Kiwi homes and businesses.

We’re looking for an experienced Salesforce Developer who enjoys solving technical problems and building well-designed solutions for 2 year fixed-term contract.

About the Role

You’ll join Nova’s established Digital Team, working within an agile development team responsible for integration services and new platform functionality in AWS, including integrations with Salesforce.

The position has a strong Salesforce focus, with scope to work with Salesforce Industries and solutions supporting Nova’s energy, broadband and mobile businesses.

You’ll work with people from different areas of Nova to understand what they need, provide technical guidance and determine the best approach for solutions that need to perform well and remain manageable over time.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop and customise Salesforce applications using Apex, Visualforce, Lightning Web Components and relevant Salesforce Industries capabilities.
• Design and build solutions using Salesforce Industries and OmniStudio components, including OmniScripts, FlexCards, Data Mappers and Integration Procedures.
• Develop Salesforce integrations, including bi-directional data integration using REST-based web services.
• Work through business and technical requirements, identifying implementation issues and risks and recommending practical options for resolving them.
• Contribute to solution design, code reviews and technical discussions, sharing knowledge and maintaining good development practices within the team.

About You

You enjoy getting into the detail of technical problems but can also step back and understand what the business is trying to achieve.

You’re comfortable working through complex requirements, questioning assumptions where needed and considering different ways to solve a problem. You can explain technical concepts clearly without making them unnecessarily complicated.

You’ll enjoy working in a development team where people share their knowledge and listen to different perspectives. You take ownership of your work, use sound technical judgement and keep learning as the Salesforce platform evolves.

Key Requirements

• A bachelor’s degree in computer science or a related field, along with relevant Salesforce certification such as Platform Developer I/II, Administrator or another relevant Salesforce certification.
• At least five years’ hands-on Salesforce development experience, including designing, developing and implementing Salesforce solutions.
• Strong knowledge of Salesforce architecture principles and development using Apex, Lightning Web Components and Visualforce.
• Hands-on experience with Salesforce OmniStudio, including OmniScripts, FlexCards, Data Mappers and Integration Procedures.
• Strong experience developing Salesforce integrations using REST APIs and other integration patterns, including bi-directional data integration.

Desirable Experience

It would be useful, but isn’t essential, if you also bring experience in some of the following:

• Salesforce Industries CPQ, including product catalogues, product configuration, quoting, pricing, product bundles, rules and order management.
• Energy & Utilities Cloud and/or Communications Cloud.
• Industry-specific data models and business processes across energy, utilities or telecommunications.
• Salesforce Marketing Cloud.
• AWS services and cloud-based integration architecture.

You may not have experience in every area above. If you have a strong Salesforce development background and can see how your experience could transfer to Nova’s environment, we’d still like to hear from you.

What We Can Offer You

• Competitive remuneration
• Flexible working arrangements.
• Access to our employee discount scheme, offering savings on electricity, natural gas, broadband and mobile services.
• Employee discount programme (Todd Perks), free eye checks, discounted gym, fuel savings and other services.
• Generous leave provisions, including 3 days office closure leave and the ability to purchase more leave if needed.
• Annual health checks, mole maps, flu vaccinations and mental health support with Clearhead.
• In-house leadership and development programmes, coaching and mentoring available and support for external studies.
• Fun Cultural Calendar & social club activities

About the Team

Nova’s Digital Team has a practical approach to getting work done. Priorities are managed around working smarter rather than simply working longer, with flexibility for different working styles within the team’s structure.

It’s a small enough team that you may also get involved in areas outside your usual work when your experience or interests are relevant. People share ideas, knowledge and a good sense of humour, with room to be yourself at work.
