Application Administrator, Sales & Partnership (Salesforce)

We deliver trusted, scalable, secure services and infrastructure to empower Thumbtack employees with the tools they need to get work done.

This role is perfect for someone who’s energized by ambiguity, eager to build experiments and pilots, and excited to drive measurable impact through thoughtful Salesforce design and process innovation. You’ll be part of a team that values fast, iterative execution but without sacrificing quality or clarity.
