We're on a mission to revolutionize how businesses operate through innovative digital solutions, and we need a visionary Application Developer Lead to help us shape the future of our Salesforce ecosystem.

arenaflex has always been an organization that celebrates more than just the bottom line. We believe in creating meaningful connections, fostering exceptional talent, and nurturing leaders who share our passion for excellence. Our culture is built on the foundation of integrity, inclusion, and the relentless pursuit of improvement. As we continue to expand our global footprint, we're looking for a talented Application Developer Lead who will drive transformative technology solutions and lead our teams to new heights.

About This Role

This is an exciting opportunity to join arenaflex as an Application Developer Lead, where you'll play a pivotal role in delivering and supporting complex technology solutions while driving meaningful change across Channel Development, U.S. Licensed Stores, and our Global Licensed Stores operations.

As a Salesforce engineer at arenaflex, you will identify, design, and deploy technology and process solutions that establish key business capabilities, enabling the realization of strategic initiatives and operational enhancements across our global Salesforce organizations. Our Salesforce environment spans multiple products including Sales Cloud, B2B Commerce, Experience Cloud, and other cutting-edge solutions.
