- QC and test complex automations, data flows, and configurations created by teammates or external partners.
- Own data hygiene and maintenance efforts—develop and enforce processes to ensure data accuracy, deduplication, and field standardization while upholding Salesforce security best practices and protecting sensitive customer and business data.
