About the Role

We're looking for a Systems Administrator who thrives on creating innovative solutions and tying systems together to unlock real leverage for go-to-market teams.

What You'll Be Responsible For

• Administering and evolving our Salesforce environment, with a focus on scalable automations.

• Translating business needs into practical, scalable technical solutions - balancing speed, simplicity, and long-term maintainability.

• Managing integrations of multiple revenue tools - including Salesforce, HubSpot, datacloud, CTI, snowflake, enrichment platforms - to create a cohesive, high-leverage tech stack, prioritizing Salesforce as the single source of truth wherever possible.

• Designing creative, self-serve systems that streamline workflows and empower Sales, CS, and Marketing.

• Championing system hygiene, data governance, and process scalability across the revenue engine, while dealing with tech debt.

About YouHere's what sets you up for success at Float:

• You Put Customers First, Always. You care deeply about delivering meaningful value. Whether you're building internal systems or customer-facing features, you're always thinking about how to make life better for our users.

• You Act Like an Owner. You take responsibility for outcomes, step up to challenges, and seek solutions proactively—doing what's best for the business, not just your role.

• Have experience tying multiple systems together via integrations - whether through APIs, middleware, or native syncs

• Know how to translate real-world business problems into elegant technical solutions that scale

• Understand how to build systems that create leverage for Sales, CS, and Marketing (think: fewer clicks, better data, more time selling)

• Are familiar with tools like HubSpot, Data Cloud, and data enrichment platforms - and know how to make them work in sync with Salesforce

• Data work in Google Sheets or Excel

• Have a builder's mindset - you spot inefficiencies, propose smart solutions, and get energy from bringing ideas to life

• You need close day-to-day direction rather than working independently

• You're not energized by feedback or fast-paced change

• You're seeking predictability over adaptability

• You're not comfortable making decisions in ambiguous situations
