Additionally, the architect will assist teams in preparing and delivering technical demonstrations, showcasing the value and functionality of proposed solutions, and will work closely with the project team during the development lifecycle to verify requirements, data mapping, solution design, and defect analysis. Continuous improvement is also a key aspect of this role, as the architect must stay updated on Salesforce releases, features, and best practices, making implementation and change management recommendations accordingly.
