Job Category Software Engineering Job Details About Salesforce Salesforce is the #1 AI CRM, where humans with agents drive customer success together. Here, ambition meets action. Tech meets trust. And innovation isn’t a buzzword — it’s a way of life. The world of work as we know it is changing and we're looking for Trailblazers who are passionate about bettering business and the world through AI, driving innovation, and keeping Salesforce's core values at the heart of it all. Ready to level-up your career at the company leading workforce transformation in the agentic era? You’re in the right place! Agentforce is the future of AI, and you are the future of Salesforce. At Salesforce, trust is our #1 value, and the Salesforce Guardian organization builds the security, resilience, and data governance capabilities that thousands of customers rely on every day. We are looking for a Sr. Engineering Manager to join the team! The Unified Observability team is building on its deep foundation in event data to deliver a single, coherent platform for metrics, logs, and traces across Salesforce. Our charter is to give customers one place to troubleshoot and reason about behavior across multiple services. You'll lead the Unified Observability team as it takes on a major new initiative, with a clear product vision, strong PM and design partnership, and real headroom to shape how the team is built and how it operates.
