_________________________________________________________________

We are looking for a Senior Technical Domain Lead to take end-to-end technical ownership of an e-commerce domain, combining strong engineering leadership, architecture, delivery, and people coordination.

This is a highly influential role for someone who can connect technology, product, and business, coordinate multiple engineering teams, anticipate delivery risks, and shape a sustainable technical roadmap.

Key Responsibilities

You will act as the technical reference for the e-commerce domain and will be responsible for:

• Owning the end-to-end technical delivery across development, quality, release, and operations.
• Coordinating Tech Leads and engineering teams, supporting architectural decisions and resolving technical conflicts.
• Shaping and communicating the medium-term technical strategy in close collaboration with technology leadership.
• Translating business and product objectives into an executable technical roadmap.
• Identifying technical and implementation risks early, including architecture, dependencies, delivery capacity, and cross-team constraints.
• Removing cross-team delivery blockers and ensuring technical alignment between teams.
• Balancing hands-on technical depth with people, process, and delivery leadership.
• Standardizing shared engineering tools, practices, architectural guidelines, Skills and Rules.
• Driving the adoption of AI-assisted software development, including harnesses, Skills/Rules, and coding agents.
• Promoting a true DevOps ownership model, where teams take responsibility for the complete lifecycle from development through production operations.

• 8+ years of relevant professional experience, with senior/expert-level responsibilities.
• Previous experience providing technical leadership across multiple engineering teams, such as Senior Tech Lead, Engineering Manager, Technical Domain Lead, or equivalent.
• Strong technical experience within the Salesforce ecosystem and/or e-commerce platforms. Hands-on experience with Salesforce Commerce / SFRA is highly valued but is not strictly mandatory; candidates with strong experience in other Salesforce products or relevant e-commerce solutions may also be considered.
• Proven professional experience with React in headless e-commerce architectures. This experience must be clearly demonstrated in the candidate's professional history.
• Proven ability to combine technical depth with people/team coordination.
• Experience resolving cross-team delivery challenges, dependencies, and conflicting technical priorities.
• Ability to define and communicate a medium-term technical strategy aligned with Product and Business stakeholders.
• Experience identifying, communicating, and managing implementation and delivery risks.
• Experience with AI-assisted development models — harnesses, Skills/Rules, coding agents — or strong ability and willingness to adopt them quickly.
• Fluent Portuguese and English.
• Availability to work 2 days per week onsite in Maia.
• Candidates who are currently employed must be able to join within a maximum notice period of 30 days.

• Hands-on experience with Salesforce Commerce / SFRA, including architecture, customization, and operation within an e-commerce environment.
• Experience with Salesforce Service, Salesforce OMS and/or Data 360.
• Previous experience in Retail, E-commerce, Health & Beauty environments.
• Experience with system integrations through API gateways such as Gravitee or Solace.
• Strong exposure to modern DevOps operating models and full software lifecycle ownership

The Profile We’re Looking For

This role requires more than strong technical expertise.

We are looking for someone who is comfortable being accountable without having direct hierarchical control over every team member. You should be able to influence Tech Leads, engineers, Product and Business stakeholders through technical credibility, communication, and sound decision-making.

You should also bring a pragmatic approach to technical debt, understand business roadmaps, maintain team motivation during high-pressure periods, and know when to challenge, prioritize, or compromise to keep delivery moving without losing technical coherence.

Before Applying, Ask Yourself These 5 Questions

1. Have I led or technically coordinated multiple engineering teams, rather than only one development team?
2. Do I have strong experience within the Salesforce ecosystem and/or e-commerce platforms, even if my background is not specifically focused on Salesforce Commerce/SFRA?
3. Do I have professional experience with React in a headless e-commerce architecture that is clearly demonstrated in my work history?
4. Can I translate business priorities into technical strategy while managing architecture, dependencies, risks, and delivery?
5. Am I fluent in Portuguese and English, able to work onsite in Maia twice a week, and available to join within a maximum of 30 days if currently employed?

If the answer is yes to all five, we would like to hear from you.

Important: Please ensure your CV clearly describes the mandatory experience and technologies above. Mandatory requirements are eliminatory, so skills that are not explicitly demonstrated in the CV may prevent the application from progressing.
