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.
THE EXPERIENCE
Every service on a global, multi-cloud platform rests on one foundation: trust. The systems that issue certificates, establish workload and AI agent identity, and protect cryptographic keys let millions of services prove their identity to one another.
As an Architect, you define the strategy and technical direction for this foundation as the industry moves to shorter certificate lifetimes, fully automated lifecycle management, and post-quantum cryptography.
This is a hands-on architecture role for a distributed-systems leader with strong security depth. You design for continuous global availability, guide the evolution of our cryptography without disrupting dependent services, and implement working systems across multiple engineering teams. Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) and key-management expertise are strong advantages, but deep distributed-systems and security judgment matter most.
WHAT YOU'LL ACTUALLY BE DOING
- Own the target architecture and multi-year strategy for certificate lifecycle, trust distribution, and cryptographic identity across workloads and AI agents, and lead execution through production.
- Architect highly available, globally scalable trust infrastructure with measurable Service Level Objectives (SLOs) and fleet-wide automated certificate renewal capabilities.
- Drive automation-first, cost-effective architecture focused on zero-touch lifecycle operations, zero-downtime migrations, and data-driven build-versus-buy decisions.
- Establish architectural and security standards for the interfaces between the trust platform and dependent infrastructure, and guide teams through complex design trade-offs.
- Stay hands-on by prototyping, writing critical-path code, and validating architecture in live systems.
- Present investment and architecture proposals to senior leadership, mentor engineering leads, and scale technical expertise across the organization.
YOU'RE OUR PERSON IF...
- You have 12+ years of experience designing and operating large-scale distributed systems or infrastructure services, with a proven track record of driving multi-team technical strategy into production.
- You have deep expertise in distributed-systems architecture, reliability, and performance at scale.
- You have hands-on experience operating mission-critical, highly available services on public cloud platforms such as Amazon Web Services (AWS) or Google Cloud Platform (GCP), including Kubernetes and service mesh.
- You have security domain experience in identity and authorization, applied cryptography, or infrastructure security.
- You have working knowledge of PKI, X.509 certificates, mutual Transport Layer Security (mTLS), and key management.
- You have proven leadership in aligning cross-organizational initiatives without direct authority.
- You have strong communication skills, with a track record of authoring adopted architecture proposals and presenting effectively to both engineers and executives.
- You bring a demonstrated, genuine AI-first approach to engineering, using AI to move faster, build fluency across the stack, and contribute well beyond your core specialty.
- You have experience using AI tools (for example, Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Codex, or Cursor) in development workflows.
- You hold a related technical degree.
EVEN BETTER IF...
- You have built or operated certificate, identity, or key-management services at scale.
- You are familiar with workload identity standards (for example, Secure Production Identity Framework for Everyone (SPIFFE)) and short-lived credentials.
- You know post-quantum cryptography (PQC) standards, such as Module-Lattice-Based Key-Encapsulation Mechanism (ML-KEM), Module-Lattice-Based Digital Signature Algorithm (ML-DSA), and hybrid key exchange in TLS 1.3, as well as emerging approaches like Merkle Tree Certificates and crypto-agility design principles.
- You have contributed to technical standards bodies (for example, the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF), the CA/Browser Forum, or the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)) or to major open-source projects.
COMPENSATION
- The typical base salary range for this position is $218,400 - $365,200 annually. In select cities within the San Francisco and New York City metropolitan area, the base salary range for this role is $263,200 - $401,400 annually.
The range represents base salary only, and does not include company bonus, incentive for sales roles, equity or benefits, as applicable.

Search Technology Jobs in WashingtonTechnology E-3 Sponsorship Jobs in Washington: Frequently Asked Questions
Which technology companies sponsor E-3 visas in Washington?
Washington's largest E-3 visa technology sponsors include Microsoft (headquartered in Redmond), Amazon (headquartered in Seattle), and Google (Kirkland and Seattle offices). Mid-size and growth-stage companies such as Tableau, Zillow, Expedia, and Smartsheet have also filed Labor Condition Applications for technology roles. Enterprise software, cloud services, and e-commerce companies represent the highest concentration of E-3 sponsoring employers in the state.
Which cities in Washington have the most technology E-3 sponsorship jobs?
Seattle and the Eastside cities of Redmond, Bellevue, and Kirkland account for the vast majority of technology E-3 sponsorship activity in Washington. Seattle's South Lake Union and Capitol Hill neighborhoods house Amazon, Meta, and numerous mid-size tech firms. Redmond is anchored by Microsoft's main campus. Bellevue has grown significantly as a secondary tech hub, with Amazon's Bellevue expansion and a growing number of software companies establishing offices there.
What types of technology roles typically qualify for E-3 sponsorship in Washington?
Roles that consistently qualify for E-3 sponsorship are those classified as specialty occupations, requiring at least a bachelor's degree in a directly related field. In Washington's technology sector, this commonly includes software engineering, data science, machine learning engineering, product management, DevOps and cloud infrastructure, UX research, and cybersecurity. Roles where any bachelor's degree satisfies the requirement, regardless of field, are less likely to qualify under the specialty occupation standard.
How do I find technology E-3 sponsorship jobs in Washington?
Migrate Mate is built specifically for this search. You can filter by visa type (E-3), industry (technology), and state (Washington) to see current openings from employers who have a demonstrated history of sponsoring E-3 workers. This is more targeted than a general job search because Migrate Mate surfaces employers with verified sponsorship activity, saving you from applying to companies that are unlikely to support an E-3 application.
Are there any Washington-specific considerations for technology E-3 sponsorship?
Washington has no state income tax, which affects how your total compensation compares to offers in other states, though the E-3 visa requirements themselves are federal and uniform nationwide. One practical consideration is that Washington's technology market is highly competitive, and employers in Seattle and Redmond are generally familiar with E-3 sponsorship given the large existing population of Australian tech workers in the region. The Labor Condition Application must reflect the prevailing wage for the specific metropolitan statistical area where you'll be working.
What is the prevailing wage for E-3 technology jobs in Washington?
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.
