Technical Consultant

The Opportunity (What This Role Really Means)

Clients trust us with the systems that run their business, and that trust is earned one project at a time by people who know the platform. As a Technical Consultant, you're that person. You take a client's requirements, figure out what Practifi can genuinely do (versus what would just create a maintenance headache down the line), and build it. You're the technical half of our paired model, working alongside a Business Analyst who owns the relationship while you own the build. When something breaks or a client needs an escalation handled with confidence, you're often the one they're counting on.

Your Day-to-Day (The Honest Version)

The Core Work

• Manage client projects assigned through SOWs, partnering with a Business Analyst and the client to scope requirements and design a solution that holds up.

• Lead or participate in client calls to gather and clarify project requirements, then build it in Practifi following a defined development lifecycle.

• Run training sessions and demos so clients understand what you built and why.

• Serve as an escalation point for the Support team on configuration questions involving custom orgs, and as a direct escalation point for MSP clients on complex or urgent issues.

The Reality Check

• You'll learn the specifics of Practifi's platform (JSON Components, Process Types, Task Templates, Lookup Rollup Summaries) even if you already know Salesforce cold. You'll have a Practibuddy mentor from day one and Senior Technical Consultants to lean on for the harder builds.

• Some weeks are heads-down building. Others are back-to-back client calls and training sessions. Both are part of the job.

The Growth Part

• Learnbucks, our annual education stipend, is yours to use on certifications or courses that sharpen your skills.

• This role has a clear next step to Senior Technical Consultant, and the escalation and client-facing work you'll do here builds the track record to get there.

What We're Really Looking For

The Must-Haves

• Salesforce Admin I Certification.

• Experience configuring Salesforce and Practifi objects, fields, page layouts, and Lightning Pages, plus building screen flows and record-triggered flows of moderate complexity.

• Comfort with Data Loader, Salesforce Inspector, and Dev Console, including querying and updating records directly in the data model.

• Working knowledge of Salesforce's security model (Profiles, Roles, Permission Sets, Custom Permissions, Divisions) and the ability to configure it to a client's requirements.

The Nice-to-Haves

• Prior experience in wealth management, financial advisory, or fintech SaaS.

• Experience running client-facing training sessions or demos.

• Exposure to platform upgrade or migration projects.

The More Important Stuff

• You're genuinely curious about how systems fit together, and you ask questions instead of guessing.

• You can explain a technical decision to a non-technical client without talking down to them.

• You take ownership of your projects and communicate proactively when something's off track, rather than waiting to be asked.

What Taking This Leap Gets You

The Practical Stuff

• Base salary: $85,000 to $110,000, depending on experience. No mystery math, just a real range.

• 20 days of Paid Leave, 10 sick days, 3 personal days, and 3 volunteering days, all available from day one.

The Cultural Stuff

• A Practibuddy mentor from day one, so you're never figuring things out alone.

• Bi-annual summits in Chicago to connect with the team in person.

• Remote-first that actually means remote-first, not remote-first-until-someone-questions-it.

Living Our Values Daily

• Growth: You'll ramp up on our platform and grow toward Senior Technical Consultant, backed by Learnbucks and a Practibuddy mentor.

• Collaboration: You'll work in a true paired model with your Business Analyst partner and lean on Senior Technical Consultants for complex builds.

• Transparency: You'll tell clients what's realistic and what isn't, even when the easier answer would be to just say yes.

• Curiosity: You'll ask why a client's process works the way it does before you build around it.

• Integrity: You'll own your work, including telling a client the truth about a deadline or a technical limitation.
