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.
Overview
As an Account Solution Engineer (SE), you are the Strategic Advisor who helps New Zealand’s most iconic organisations envision their future. You aren't just a technical resource; you are a storyteller and a problem-solver. Working alongside our Sales partners, you will own the "business case for change," translating complex organisational challenges into clear, value-driven digital journeys.
We are looking for a collaborator who is curious about the "why" behind the "how." You will join a high-trust team where we value collaborative development. We operate with a 'no single point of failure' mindset, ensuring that as you lead your accounts, you have the full support and shared knowledge of the team behind you.
The Impact You’ll Have
Strategic Advisory: Move beyond technical proof to help customers understand the commercial conviction behind AI and digital transformation.
- Agentic Authority: Learn to architect "Agentforce" journeys, helping the C-Suite understand how autonomous agents can solve real-world problems like NPS and Cost-to-Serve.
- Collaborative Ownership: Work as part of a "Team NZ" ecosystem, where we hold ourselves and each other to account for driving measurable customer success.
- Continuous Growth: Benefit from our "Talent Pyramid"—as you own the core run-rate of the business, you will be mentored by senior Architects to develop the skills needed for the next stage of your career.
What We’re Looking For
We value a diversity of perspectives and life experiences. If you are a curious problem-solver who loves technology’s potential to help people, we want to hear from you—even if you don’t check every box below.
Core Strengths
Confident Advocacy: You possess the "swagger" to lead a room, backed by the humility to listen. You are comfortable holding a professional opinion and defending the integrity of your advice, even when it means challenging a stakeholder’s initial assumptions.
- Business Curiosity: You enjoy understanding how a company works. You can find the "puzzle piece" where technology creates the most value.
- Communication & Empathy: You can listen deeply to a customer's challenges and explain a solution in a way that feels accessible and inspiring.
- Collaborative Spirit: You thrive in an environment where we celebrate collective wins and protect each other’s well-being.
- Technical Foundations: You are a practitioner at heart. Whether your background is in Engineering, Consulting, or Architecture, you’re proficient in navigating complex stacks, you aren't afraid to get your hands dirty building solutions, and you have the "scars" to show for it.
Background & Experience
There is no "perfect" path to becoming an SE. We are interested in your potential and transferable skills. You might be a fit if you have experience in:
- Consulting or Advisory: Helping clients navigate change or solve business problems.
- Customer-Facing Roles: Roles where you’ve had to present ideas, build relationships, or manage complex projects.
- Industry Knowledge: Experience in New Zealand’s key sectors (Retail, Government, FSI, etc.) and an understanding of the local market.
Our "Team Champion" Promise to You
In the NZ SE team, we believe that great culture and great results go hand-in-hand. We offer:
- Strategic Mentorship: A documented Individual Development Plan (IDP) and dedicated coaching to ensure you never feel like a "single point of failure".
- Wellness & Balance: We treat well-being as a strategic necessity, ensuring you have the mental space to do the best work of your career.
- Inclusive Community: A team environment where diverse perspectives fuel innovation and everyone is heard.

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.
