Overview
The Salesforce Technical Architect is the senior technical authority for the Bank's Salesforce platform and is accountable for its technical architecture, code quality, and engineering practices. The role owns the platform's technical design, covering Apex, Lightning Web Components, solution architecture, and integration patterns, and contributes design input on the data model and the sharing and security model, which the Salesforce administration team owns. It translates business requirements and Enterprise Architecture standards into buildable, maintainable, well governed technical solutions.

- Owns and continuously improves Salesforce DevOps practices, including source driven development with Salesforce DX, Git branching and merge strategy, automated CI/CD pipelines, metadata governance, static code analysis, automated test execution, and scratch org and sandbox lifecycle management.
- Defines and enforces release management for the platform, including environment strategy, deployment automation, rollback procedures, release documentation, and the separation of duties controls required of a regulated financial institution.
- Performs and approves design and code reviews for all internal and vendor delivered work, gating promotion to higher environments on adherence to coding standards, test coverage thresholds, security requirements, and performance criteria.
- Designs and governs Salesforce integration architecture in coordination with the Integration team, including API led patterns mediated through the enterprise integration platform, event driven integration, and bulk and streaming data flows to core banking, identity, and data platforms.
- Partners with the Salesforce administration team on the platform's data model and its sharing, visibility, and security architecture, providing technical design input and review on profiles, permission sets, field level security, encryption, and least privilege access design so that solutions remain aligned to Information Security policy.
- Monitors and tunes application level performance across the platform, including Apex execution, query efficiency, governor limit consumption, and integration throughput, and maintains a prioritized technical debt remediation roadmap that this role drives to completion.
- Partners with the Salesforce administration team on org capacity monitoring, including API request volumes, data and file storage consumption, and license utilization, providing technical analysis and remediation options where capacity constraints affect solution design.
- Provides technical leadership for Marketing Cloud development where applicable, including data extensions, AMPscript and Server Side JavaScript, Journey Builder configuration, and Marketing Cloud Connect or API based integration with the core Salesforce org.
- Contributes technical input to platform roadmaps and delivery planning, supplying solution options, effort estimates, and sequencing considerations to product owners, business stakeholders, and Enterprise Architecture.
- Evaluates Salesforce seasonal releases, nCino release upgrades, AppExchange packages, and new platform capabilities, including platform AI features, for technical fit and risk, and presents recommendations through the Bank's architecture governance process.
- Identifies opportunities to eliminate manual effort and automate remediation of recurring issues in order to improve the operational stability, observability, and supportability of the platform.
- Directs the technical work of vendor, contractor, and systems integrator resources on the platform; reviews their deliverables against agreed design and quality standards, validates billed effort against demonstrable output, and escalates gaps in quality or delivery promptly.
- Establishes and maintains the platform's technical documentation baseline, including architecture and sequence diagrams, Architecture Decision Records, integration specifications, operational runbooks, and developer onboarding materials.
- Represents the Salesforce platform in the Enterprise Architecture Committee (EAC) and other governance forums, presenting designs for review and responding to audit, risk, and examination inquiries with supporting evidence.
- Provides licensing, tooling, environment, and effort estimates in support of platform budgeting, capacity forecasting, and vendor engagement scoping.
- Advises the Product team on technical design in and around the nCino Loan Origination System, which is a vendor managed package owned by that team, including supported extension patterns, integration touchpoints, upgrade impact assessment, and regression testing considerations for custom code that interacts with the package.
- Establishes and governs the team's AI assisted development practice, including approved generative AI coding tools such as Claude Code, standards for context engineering and reusable prompts, mandatory human review of AI generated code, and controls for data handling, licensing, and intellectual property under Bank policy.
Qualifications
- 8-10 years of hands on software engineering experience, including a minimum of six years designing and building on the Salesforce Platform in a pro code capacity (Apex, Lightning Web Components, SOQL, and platform APIs).

Search Technical Architect Jobs in FloridaTechnical Architect Jobs in Florida: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies sponsor visas for technical architects in Florida?
Florida-based and nationally operating employers with a track record of H-1B sponsorship for technical architect roles include IBM, Cognizant, Infosys, Conduent, and Citigroup, which has a significant technology presence in the Miami area. Defense contractors like Leidos and SAIC also sponsor technical roles in the Orlando corridor, where proximity to government clients drives demand for senior architecture positions.
Which visa types are most common for technical architect roles in Florida?
The H-1B is the most common visa category for technical architects in Florida, as the role typically requires a bachelor's degree or higher in computer science, engineering, or a related field, meeting the specialty occupation standard. Candidates with multinational backgrounds may also encounter L-1A or L-1B transfers, particularly at large consulting firms with Florida offices. Australians in this role may qualify for the E-3 visa.
Which cities in Florida have the most technical architect sponsorship jobs?
Miami leads for technical architect sponsorship, particularly in financial technology and international banking. Orlando is a strong second, driven by defense, simulation technology, and the presence of large IT services firms. Tampa has grown considerably in cybersecurity and healthcare IT. Jacksonville also has a notable concentration, anchored by financial services employers with large technology operations.
How to find technical architect visa sponsorship jobs in Florida?
Migrate Mate filters job listings specifically by visa sponsorship availability, making it straightforward to search for technical architect roles in Florida without sorting through positions that won't support international candidates. You can browse by location and role type to identify employers actively hiring for this position. Given the seniority of technical architect roles, filtering for companies with established sponsorship histories saves significant time.
Are there any Florida-specific considerations for technical architects seeking visa sponsorship?
Florida has no state income tax, which affects how prevailing wage calculations compare to cost-of-living in cities like Miami. Technical architects employed on H-1B visas must be paid the prevailing wage as determined by the Department of Labor for the specific metropolitan area, and Miami's wage level differs from Orlando's or Jacksonville's. Florida's university system, including the University of Florida and University of South Florida, also produces engineering graduates who enter this talent pipeline.
What is the prevailing wage for sponsored technical architect jobs in Florida?
U.S. employers sponsoring a visa must pay at least the prevailing wage, which is what workers in the same role, area, and experience level typically earn. The Department of Labor sets this rate to make sure companies aren't hiring foreign workers simply because they'd accept lower pay than a U.S. worker. It varies by job title, location, and experience. You can look up current prevailing wage rates for any occupation and location using the OFLC Wage Search page.
