🏢 About Air Products

Air Products is a global leader in hydrogen solutions, driving the transition to zero-carbon energy with pioneering projects like the world's largest clean hydrogen complex. Working here means contributing to a sustainable future while leveraging cutting-edge technology in a mission-driven environment.

About This Role

This role combines IT development and system architecture with a heavy focus on CRM (Salesforce) to optimize enterprise data systems. You'll lead design and integration projects, drive AI adoption, and create dashboards that directly impact business decisions, all while working remotely.

💡 A Day in the Life

You might start by reviewing a business requirement for a new Salesforce feature, then collaborate with stakeholders to design a solution. After lunch, you could work on a QlikSense dashboard for sales analytics, followed by a meeting on AI adoption strategies. The day ends with code reviews and planning for the next sprint.

🎯 Who Air Products Is Looking For

  • A Salesforce administrator with 5+ years of hands-on Sales Cloud experience, including configuration, data modeling, and security.
  • A systems thinker who can translate business needs into technical solutions and manage full-cycle development.
  • Proficient in BI tools like QlikSense, Microsoft Access, and Excel for creating impactful dashboards and reports.
  • Passionate about AI and change management, with experience driving adoption of new technologies in enterprise environments.

4

Tailor your resume to emphasize data modeling and dashboard creation using QlikSense or similar tools.
