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.
Applications will be accepted until 06/30/2026.
The ideal candidate is a Transformation executive and strategic seller who can shape and secure our Tech, Media and/or Telecommunications programs. This isn't a traditional sales role; it is a 'player-coach' position for a strategist who can command a boardroom, navigate complex environments, and convert abstract visions into multi-million dollar commercial mandates.
As a high-octane problem solver, you will engineer the commercial roadmap and services propositions that accelerate tangible business outcomes. You are the strategic orchestrator of the account, possessing the organizational rigor to document complex workstreams and the professional bravado to align C-Suite stakeholders. By conducting a unified "One Salesforce" pursuit, aligning License Sales, Product, and Customer Success, you chart a clear path for how Salesforce can operate as the primary engine for our customers' digital and agentic evolution.
The Director/Senior Director Account Partner leverages their prior experience leading customer experience, digitization, or sales/service/marketing transformation programs (preferably utilizing the Salesforce platform) as an internal leader or as an external consultant. APs ideally have led multiple transformation programs where they have not only helped paint the picture of the customer’s vision but have also driven execution to achieve the desired value and outcomes. The candidate is confident, experienced, and credible in the C-Suite, with an unwavering ability to influence action and results up, down, and across the organization.
IMPACT
Success will be defined by your ability to bridge the gap between a client’s strategic aspirations and high-stakes execution, resulting in bookings, program revenue, and software consumption. You will help Salesforce move beyond the role of a traditional vendor to become an indispensable strategic steward for our most complex Technology, Media and Telecommunications accounts. Your goal is to engineer and secure strategic services programs that ensure customers realize the full ROI of their CRM, AI, and Data investments. The primary measurement of success in this AP role is the orchestration and closure of high-complexity, multi-million dollar services pursuits.

Which technology companies sponsor E-3 visas in Illinois?
Illinois-based technology employers with documented E-3 visa and H-1B visa sponsorship histories include Morningstar, Motorola Solutions, Relativity, Avant, and Uptake, along with major enterprise technology firms like Salesforce and Oracle that maintain large Chicago offices. Financial technology companies including Enova and Paylocity also hire for technical roles and have sponsored work visas for international candidates in the past.
Which cities in Illinois have the most technology E-3 sponsorship jobs?
Chicago accounts for the overwhelming majority of technology E-3 sponsorship opportunities in Illinois. The River North, West Loop, and Fulton Market neighborhoods house a high concentration of tech employers. Naperville, a western suburb, has a smaller but active technology employment base with companies in software and telecommunications. Outside these areas, technology hiring with visa sponsorship in Illinois drops off significantly.
What types of technology roles typically qualify for E-3 sponsorship?
Roles that typically qualify are those requiring at least a bachelor's degree in a specific technical field directly related to the position. Software engineers, data scientists, cybersecurity analysts, cloud architects, DevOps engineers, and machine learning engineers are among the most commonly sponsored titles in Illinois. The key requirement is that the position must qualify as a specialty occupation under U.S. immigration standards, meaning a relevant degree must be a genuine prerequisite for the role.
How do I find technology E-3 sponsorship jobs in Illinois?
Migrate Mate is built specifically for this search. You can filter by E-3 visa type, the technology industry, and Illinois to see verified sponsorship-eligible roles from employers who have a history of supporting work visas. This is more targeted than general job searches because listings are curated for international candidates, saving you from applying to roles where sponsorship was never on the table.
Are there any Illinois-specific considerations for E-3 sponsorship in technology?
Illinois does not impose state-level visa sponsorship requirements beyond federal standards, but Chicago's technology sector is competitive and many employers are experienced with the E-3 process. Illinois requires employers to file a Labor Condition Application through the U.S. Department of Labor before the E-3 visa can be issued. For technology roles, employers should confirm the position meets the specialty occupation standard, which is straightforward for most engineering and data science titles but can require additional documentation for hybrid or generalist roles.
What is the prevailing wage for E-3 technology jobs in Illinois?
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.
