For orgs where one runaway trigger can stall a release
Hire Salesforce Developers
A Salesforce org degrades in small decisions nobody reviews twice. A trigger that skips bulkification, a Flow built where Apex was the safer call, or a SOQL query that scans instead of filtering can each stall a release quietly. These developers are tested on catching exactly that kind of decision before a release exposes it, then placed inside the org you run today.
- Profiles typically within two business days
- Replacement Assurance: If an engineer is not the right fit, a replacement from our own team starts within ten business days of your request, at no extra cost
- You interview before placement if you want to
- At least four hours a day inside your core working hours. Two hours plus a daily written handover for the US West Coast
- 14-Day Risk-Free Trial: For your first engineer on a time-and-materials engagement. Up to 14 calendar days or 80 logged working hours, whichever comes first. End within the trial and pay nothing for trial hours. Continue beyond it and those hours are billed at the agreed rate. Unpaid trial work remains ours if you stop
How we evaluate a Salesforce developer
The tasks, the signals and the onboarding, walked through by the people who run them.
90 secSample frame · video pending01Published, not promised
The assessment behind every Salesforce developer we send.
Five competencies sit behind this bar, each with the actual task and the signal that ends a candidacy attached. A certification badge is not part of the scoring. What is scored is whether an org actually survives a bulk data load.
What we listen forWhether they design for the bulk case first, not patch a trigger after it fails in production.
A trigger works in every manual test but hits a governor limit during a bulk data load. Walk us through your diagnosis.
- What strong sounds like
- Identifies that the trigger fires per record instead of operating on the full batch, and rewrites it to process the whole list at once.
- What gives us pause
- Recommends wrapping the trigger in a try-catch to suppress the limit exception instead of removing the per-record operation causing it.

02Who you actually meet
The bench, priced by seniority.
Three seniority tiers, priced honestly, and the engineers who fill each one today. Real names and photos take their place as soon as we can share them, and the standard stays exactly the same.

03From stated problem to first change
Four steps, each closing on evidence.
This process tests org judgement, not certification badges. You're free to stop at any stage without owing us anything.
Name the org problem
We map where automation is actually straining, whether that's governor limits, Flow sprawl or a fragile integration. The brief captures that gap, not a checklist of Salesforce certifications.
A brief your leads sign off onMatch against your org
Candidates are screened against your actual org complexity, your release cadence and your team's review habits. Three developers who understand your automation beat thirty who simply list Salesforce as a skill.
Three fits, not thirty resumesAssess on real org tasks
Your team can watch the bulkification and Flow-versus-Apex exercises directly. What surfaces is org judgement, not a certification badge recited from memory.
An evaluation you can watchOnboard into your release cycle
Sandbox access, coding standards and a first scoped change inside a real sprint. Continuity cover means a departure never turns into a stalled release.
Working inside your release process by week one
04Evidence and proof
Developers who kept automation safe under real load.
Salesforce proof is a governor limit caught before a release, not a certification claimed on a resume. Every record here waits for written client approval before production.
Explore case studies
A trigger rewritten for bulk data before a patient-data import ever failed.
Koru Health's nightly patient-record sync worked in every manual test but hit governor limits during a real bulk import. An embedded Salesforce developer rewrote the trigger to process the full batch at once, and the import has run cleanly since.
- Bulk import failures
- Eliminated
- Time to fix
- Under one week
He found a governor-limit failure our own QA had missed through months of manual testing.
Sample · pending client approval
The bulk import that used to fail every few weeks hasn't failed once since he rebuilt it.

05Three shapes, one standard
Add a developer, an org pod, or a practice.
Most teams start with one developer working inside an existing org. Some need a pod that owns a whole automation domain end to end. Where a platform needs building from the ground up rather than one role filled, we point you to enterprise platforms instead.
- Team extension
One named developer
A single Salesforce specialist working inside your backlog and your review process. The lightest commitment, and where most engagements begin.
- Delivery pods
An org pod
A pod with its own lead that owns an entire automation domain, from design through release. You set direction while the pod carries delivery.
- Enterprise Platforms
The practice, not the person
Where an enterprise platform needs building or replatforming from the ground up, our enterprise platforms practice takes that scope on instead.
06Straight answers
Asked before a Salesforce hire is signed.
01What does a Salesforce developer actually do day to day?
Writes bulk-safe triggers, decides when a requirement belongs in Flow versus Apex, and keeps managed-package upgrades from breaking automation nobody remembers building. Most of the job is judgement a certification exam never actually tests.
02Do you hire for a specific Salesforce cloud or edition?
Matched to your actual org, whether that's Sales Cloud, Service Cloud or a heavily customised Enterprise edition. The evaluation focuses on Apex and Flow judgement that holds regardless of which cloud you run.
03Can we run our own interviews as well?
Yes. The bulk-load and Flow-versus-Apex tasks are designed to be reused, and several clients already run them as a second-round check.
04How fast can a Salesforce developer start?
A shortlist arrives within days from a bench assessed on an ongoing basis. Once your side provisions org access, the developer can begin working inside real automation the same week.
05Who manages the engineer day to day?
Your team sets sprint priorities and owns code review, same as with any other developer on the team. We handle the employment relationship itself, including payroll, continuity cover and a replacement plan if circumstances change.
06What if the engineer is not the right fit?
Raise it in the opening weeks and we fund a replacement at no extra cost to you. The next developer is briefed on precisely what didn't work the first time.
07Do your Salesforce developers use AI coding tools?
Yes, for scaffolding boilerplate like test classes and Lightning component shells. Every governor-limit decision and integration design stays the developer's responsibility, reviewed the same as any other change.
08How does pricing work for a hired Salesforce developer?
The ranges shown reflect typical rates for this specialism, and the shortlist settles the actual number once scope is clear. Billing runs monthly per developer, with no separate placement fee and a simple notice-period exit.
