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.

Overview of the Role
We are looking for an early-career DevOps engineer to join a team of highly motivated software, systems and security engineers, working on infrastructure at scale.

Responsibilities
- Build a foundation in solving infrastructure problems with code, with a focus on compute capacity and Kubernetes deployments at scale
- Come up to speed with Hyperforce platform tooling supporting Commercial and GovCloud deployments, developing expertise in Infrastructure and Service builds (Day0) and redeployment (Day2) operations
- Transform manual processes into automated governance solutions
- Create and maintain documentation for systems and processes
- Collaborate with various Infrastructure teams across Salesforce, growing your influence and cross-functional skills
- Work with a highly innovative team of developers, open-source committers, and architects — researching the right tools for the job, and helping build them when they don't exist yet
What You'll Learn
- Large-scale production infrastructure management within 3rd party cloud service providers (AWS and beyond)
- Ownership and accountability for infrastructure domains, with mentorship from senior engineers
- Real-world DevOps practices across the full infrastructure lifecycle

- Coursework or project experience with Infrastructure as Code tools (Terraform, Ansible, CloudFormation, or similar)
- Foundational Linux/Unix knowledge (command line proficiency, basic system administration)
- Experience with at least one scripting or programming language (Shell, Python, or Golang)
- Basic understanding of networking concepts (TCP/IP, DNS, VPCs, security groups)
- Familiarity with CI/CD concepts and tools (Jenkins, GitHub Actions, or similar)
- Experience using AI tools (e.g., AI coding assistants, generative AI) to accelerate development or automate workflows
- Strong analytical skills and a demonstrated desire for continuous learning
- Excellent communication skills, both written and verbal
Preferred Qualifications
- Internship experience in a DevOps, SRE, or cloud infrastructure role
- Familiarity with monitoring and observability tools (Grafana, Prometheus, Splunk, ELK)
- Exposure to security and compliance concepts or tooling (IAM, PKI, OPA, Checkov, or similar)
- Contributions to open-source projects
- Exposure to on-call concepts, service monitoring, and SLI/SLO frameworks

Posting Statement
Salesforce is an equal opportunity employer and maintains a policy of non-discrimination with all employees and applicants for employment. What does that mean exactly? It means that at Salesforce, we believe in equality for all. And we believe we can lead the path to equality in part by creating a workplace that’s inclusive, and free from discrimination. Know your rights: workplace discrimination is illegal. Any employee or potential employee will be assessed on the basis of merit, competence and qualifications – without regard to race, religion, color, national origin, sex, sexual orientation, gender expression or identity, transgender status, age, disability, veteran or marital status, political viewpoint, or other classifications protected by law. This policy applies to current and prospective employees, no matter where they are in their Salesforce employment journey. It also applies to recruiting, hiring, job assignment, compensation, promotion, benefits, training, assessment of job performance, discipline, termination, and everything in between. Recruiting, hiring, and promotion decisions at Salesforce are fair and based on merit. The same goes for compensation, benefits, promotions, transfers, reduction in workforce, recall, training, and education.
In the United States, compensation offered will be determined by factors such as location, job level, job-related knowledge, skills, and experience. Certain roles may be eligible for incentive compensation, equity, and benefits. Salesforce offers a variety of benefits to help you live well including: time off programs, medical, dental, vision, mental health support, paid parental leave, life and disability insurance, 401(k), and an employee stock purchasing program.
