About this project:
Proyecto Florecer has the heart of a non-profit and the mind of a business.
As part of our self-sustainability initiative, we are implementing Salesforce Non-Profit Cloud to help us manage our army of international volunteers, streamline program management, and improve relations with our various communities.
We are a small organization but run this project professionally, with executive sponsorship, a project manager, Salesforce architect, various admins and developers, and back-office administrative support.
We work with Atlassian tools such as Jira, Confluence and Bitbucket for project management and collaboration.
This is a long-term project with defined implementation phases.
You may choose to be part of the project short- or long-term.
Depending on your current level of experience, this project could be an opportunity to build your portfolio or mentor junior developers.
Proyecto Florecer fosters a loving, collaborative environment where all team members have the opportunity to contribute and grow together.
Responsibilities:
- Develop customized solutions within the Salesforce platform based on project objectives and CRM needs.

- Collaborate with business analysts and project managers to gather and analyze requirements, ensuring quality and performance of Salesforce solutions.
- Provide ongoing support and maintenance for Salesforce applications, including troubleshooting and resolving issues.
- Design and implement integrations between Salesforce and external applications (e.g., WordPress, communication tools or payment systems), ensuring data consistency, security and scalability.
Skills Desired:
- Strong experience with Salesforce CRM platforms and application development.
- Proficiency in Apex, Visualforce, Lightning Components, and other Salesforce development tools.
- Knowledge of web development technologies such as HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
- Excellent problem-solving, analytical, and communication skills.
