Nivoda: Where Innovation and Gemstones Meet
At Nivoda, we’re reimagining how the world buys and sells jewellery. Our global marketplace connects retailers and suppliers across diamonds, gemstones, and finished jewellery - already powering over $300M in annual transactions and scaling fast toward our billion-dollar vision.
We’re bringing tech, data, and automation to a $350B industry that’s barely scratched the surface of digital transformation. The result? Explosive growth and massive opportunity powered by a team that makes it happen.
Our Mission
The idea of Nivoda was inspired by the ongoing inefficiency of diamond trading. We set out to develop the solution to help businesses, regardless of their size or location, increase their sales and margins, whilst removing the operational burden of sourcing diamonds.
Our Engineering and RevOps teams sit at the heart of everything Nivoda builds. We move fast, take ownership, and obsess over scalable systems that let our commercial teams fly. We're a remote-first, globally distributed team that values directness, low ego, and big impact. If you want to build meaningful things without layers of bureaucracy, you're in the right place.
We're looking for a highly skilled Salesforce Developer to own the back-end development and scaling of our Salesforce platform. This is a pivotal role at Nivoda — we're mid-migration from HubSpot to Salesforce and need someone who can hit the ground running, deliver immediate high-priority integrations, and build solid foundations for the long term. You'll work closely with RevOps and our data engineering team to ensure Salesforce becomes the backbone of our commercial operations.
Platform Development & Customisation
Own back-end Salesforce development: Write high-quality Apex code (classes, triggers, controllers) and manage complex Flows and process automation across all Salesforce clouds.
Design custom UI components: Build Lightning Web Components (LWC) to create bespoke user interfaces that improve team efficiency beyond standard page layouts.
Manage technical debt: Perform regular code reviews and refactor legacy Apex or redundant Flows to ensure the system stays within Salesforce governor limits and remains performant.
Manage platform quality: Lead all quality assurance (QA) testing, debugging, and bug fixing to maintain a stable, error-free environment.
Integrations & Data Architecture
Lead the Shopify integration: Own the end-to-end synchronisation of Shopify data and invoices into Salesforce ahead of the mid-May launch.
Snowflake collaboration: Partner with the Senior Data Engineer to manage data streams between Snowflake and Salesforce, specifically architecting for Large Data Volumes (LDV).
Enable advanced reporting: Pull revenue and order statistics from Snowflake into Salesforce to enable robust, real-time dashboarding and reporting for leadership.
System monitoring: Build robust logging and alerting frameworks for all external APIs to catch and resolve synchronisation failures before they impact the business.
Strategic RevOps & Scaling
Scale with RevOps: Work in agile sprints to manage custom objects and schema changes across Sales Cloud and Marketing Cloud.
Standardise core processes: Implement global value sets, standardised pipeline stages, and automated lead tagging linked directly to marketing channels.
Identify improvements: Proactively audit the Salesforce setup to identify gaps and propose architectural improvements without waiting for direction.
DevOps & Governance: Establish version control (Git) and CI/CD deployment pipelines to move away from manual changes and ensure safe, audited releases.
Internal Leadership & Knowledge
Transition from Agency: Act as the primary internal expert to successfully transition the platform away from the current outsourced agency.
Comprehensive Documentation: Create and maintain technical documentation, data dictionaries, and architectural diagrams to ensure maintainability and smooth team handovers.
Internal Advisory: Act as the "Internal Architect" to advise on build-vs-buy decisions regarding third-party AppExchange tools and middleware.
Salesforce Developer Certification (essential): Preferably Platform Developer I or II.
Advanced Apex & LWC Skills: You write clean, efficient, well-documented code and are comfortable building custom components (LWC) from scratch.
Integration & Data Expertise: Solid SQL skills and a proven track record of building complex REST/SOAP API integrations (e.g., Shopify, Snowflake).
3–5 years of Salesforce Development experience: Ideally in a fast-paced, scaling environment where you’ve managed the full development lifecycle.
Architectural Thinking: Experience managing Large Data Volumes (LDV) and designing scalable data schemas across Sales and Marketing Clouds.
Independent & Proactive: You are comfortable setting your own priorities, managing stakeholders, and shipping high-quality work without hand-holding.
Documentation First: You have strong documentation habits and believe that code isn't finished until the technical docs are updated.
Nice to have
Experience in E-commerce or SaaS: Familiarity with the complexities of order management and subscription billing.
DevOps Experience: Exposure to version control (Git) and CI/CD tools (e.g., Copado, Gearset, or GitHub Actions).
Background in Series A–D companies: You’ve helped a company transition from "scrappy startup" to a mature, enterprise-grade Salesforce instance.
Data Warehouse Proficiency: Hands-on experience with data warehousing and syncing large datasets into CRM systems.
Leadership Ambition: An interest in eventually building and leading a small internal Salesforce team as the company grows.
