About Salesforce
Salesforce is the #1 AI CRM, where humans with agents drive customer success together. Here, ambition meets action. Tech meets trust. And innovation isn’t a buzzword — it’s a way of life. The world of work as we know it is changing and we're looking for Trailblazers who are passionate about bettering business and the world through AI, driving innovation, and keeping Salesforce's core values at the heart of it all.
Ready to level-up your career at the company leading workforce transformation in the agentic era? You’re in the right place! Agentforce is the future of AI, and you are the future of Salesforce.
Salesforce is leading the AI and Agentic revolution as the world's #1 AI CRM — and that incredible momentum demands network infrastructure that's fast, secure, intelligent, and relentlessly reliable. Our Edge CDN team is building a high-powered backbone that seamlessly connects millions of users to our platform, powering next-generation autonomous AI agents across clouds, data centers, and continents. As our platform expands to support fully autonomous, self-healing, and self-optimizing operations with single-click deployments to tens of thousands of global nodes, we're continuously pushing the limits of global scale and performance to deliver exceptional user experiences.
We are seeking a visionary, high-energy backend Java engineer to lead the design, architecture, and deployment of cutting-edge CDN services. You'll build real-time analytics and intelligent automation that enable our systems to self-heal and self-optimize in real time — ensuring complex, agentic AI-driven workflows execute seamlessly at scale.
If you get energized by building ultra-resilient distributed systems, driving live-site excellence alongside rapid feature innovation, and running mission-critical multi-cloud infrastructure (GCP/AWS/Azure/Alibaba) for the AI era — we want you on our team!
