Senior Salesforce Developer

About Us

Flourish and Thrive Labs is a woman-owned and led consulting firm specializing in public health solutions. Our team, composed of former public health officials, works with state and local health departments across the country, building resilient public health operating systems. We pride ourselves on being different, holding ourselves to high ethical standards, and taking care of each other.

We view our company as an urban neighborhood—a diverse group of individuals coming together to live and work, embracing the beauty in that diversity. We are a wacky bunch who are intent on spreading joy! (We just mailed out stickers to over 200 local health health professionals because we felt they could use more joy!)

As Salesforce, Microsoft, Snowflake, and AWS partners, we specialize in technology implementation with a strong people focus. We combine this with strategic planning, data analysis, coaching, and facilitation to effectively support local public health department staff.

Our core values are:

• People First
• Focus on Capacity Building
• Belief in Continuous Experimentation
• By Public Heath; For Public Health
• We Do What Is Right. Always.

We're seeking passionate, joyful individuals who align with our ethos of being different and making a difference.

WE ARE LOOKING FOR A TEAM MEMBER WITH PUBLIC HEALTH EXPERIENCE (LOCAL/ TRIBAL/ STATE/ FEDERAL).

About Consulting at F&T Labs

If you're new to consulting, we want to help you understand what makes F&T Labs different and why our approach might be perfect for you. We know transitioning from government and non-profit to consulting can be a big step, but we've designed our work environment to blend the best of both worlds.

First, let's talk about how we work. Unlike traditional consulting firms, we hire you for a role, not a specific project. This means you can contribute to various initiatives that match your expertise and interests. Think of it as bringing your public health superpowers to different challenges where they're needed most.

We believe in measuring what matters. While many consulting firms focus on billable hours, we care about the quality and impact of your work. Time sheets don't measure your success with us – it's measured by the meaningful solutions you help create for our clients and their communities.

Yes, we have utilization targets (consulting speak for how much of your time is spent on client work), but we view these as guideposts rather than strict rules. They help us ensure we're making a sustainable impact while maintaining a healthy business. These targets are meant to motivate, not to create stress.

One of the most dynamic aspects of consulting is its natural rhythm. Some weeks might be bustling with activity, while others might be quieter. We embrace these ebbs and flows because they create space for both intense, focused work and time for learning, reflection, and personal growth. This is part of our philosophy that work and life shouldn't be at odds – they should be integrated in a sustainable and energizing way.

At our core, we're built on a simple belief: when our team members flourish, our clients flourish, and ultimately, communities thrive. That's why we've created an environment that supports your growth, values your expertise, and understands that the best solutions come from people who feel empowered and energized by their work.

If you're passionate about public health and excited about the possibility of expanding your impact through consulting, we'd love to talk with you. Your experience in public health is valuable, and we're here to help you apply it in new and meaningful ways.

Senior Salesforce Developer

WE ARE LOOKING FOR A TEAM MEMBER WITH GOVERNMENTAL PUBLIC HEALTH EXPERIENCE (LOCAL / TRIBAL / STATE / FEDERAL). IF YOU HAVE THAT EXPERIENCE IN ADDITION TO SALESFORCE SKILLS, PLEASE ENSURE IT IS CLEAR ON YOUR RESUME.

What do we mean by governmental public health? We're looking for people who have worked directly for a public health agency: a local health department, tribal health organization, state health department, or federal public health agency like CDC or HRSA. We require this because there's no substitute for the lived experience of navigating government systems, understanding the constraints public health staff face, and developing genuine empathy for the people doing this work. That empathy shapes how we build solutions.

Compensation Note: If a salary range is listed for this position, please note that we will be offering at the starting point of the band. We cover 100% of your health insurance!

Role Overview

We're seeking a Senior Salesforce Developer who combines strong technical expertise with a deep understanding of public health operations. You'll lead development efforts on complex implementations, mentor junior developers, and help shape the technical direction of solutions that serve health departments nationwide.

This role is about building technology that fits how public health actually operates. Your background in public health means you can anticipate needs before they're articulated, push back on designs that won't work in practice, and advocate for the end users who will rely on what you build. You won't just execute on requirements. You'll help define what the right solution looks like.

You'll be part of a collaborative team working on our PH360 platform and client implementations. You'll work alongside architects to make technical decisions, guide junior developers in their growth, and bring your public health perspective to every design conversation. We're looking for someone who wants to build systems that genuinely make public health work better.

If you've ever been frustrated by technology that didn't fit the reality of public health work, this is your chance to build it right.

How You'll Work

You'll be part of an Agile Release Train (ART) that follows SAFe principles. This means:

• Program Increment (PI) Planning: You'll participate in quarterly planning sessions, helping shape the technical roadmap and contributing your public health perspective
• Sprint Collaboration: You'll work in two-week sprints with daily standups, regular backlog refinement, and sprint retrospectives
• Technical Leadership: You'll guide technical decisions within your team and help junior developers grow their skills
• Cross-functional Partnership: You'll work closely with solutions analysts, architects, and QA to ensure what we build truly serves our clients

Key Responsibilities

• Develop and maintain Salesforce applications using Apex, Lightning Web Components, and Flow
• Lead technical discussions and contribute to solution design alongside architects
• Mentor junior developers through pair programming, code reviews, and guidance
• Bring your public health perspective to technical decisions and design conversations
• Write clean, well-documented, testable code that sets the standard for the team
• Identify and resolve complex technical challenges
• Collaborate with QA to ensure high-quality deliverables
• Help translate public health requirements into scalable technical implementations
• Contribute to code reviews with constructive, supportive feedback

Experience Required

• 3+ years of hands-on Salesforce development experience
• 1-3 years working for a governmental public health agency (local, state, federal, or tribal)
• Salesforce Platform Developer I certification required (Platform Developer II preferred)
• Experience working in Agile or SAFe environments
• Strong collaboration and communication skills
• Track record of mentoring or guiding less experienced developers

Technical Requirements

• Strong proficiency in Apex, SOQL, and Lightning Web Components
• Experience with Salesforce Flow and declarative automation tools
• Solid understanding of Salesforce data modeling and security model
• Familiarity with integration patterns and REST/SOAP APIs
• Experience with version control (Git) and CI/CD practices
• Knowledge of testing frameworks and test-driven development

Preferred Qualifications

• Salesforce Platform Developer II certification
• Experience with Service Cloud or Health Cloud
• Familiarity with HIPAA compliance requirements
• Experience with SAFe Agile methodology
• Background in public health data systems, case management, or epidemiology workflows
