🏢 About Omnidian

Omnidian is a leader in sustainable energy, providing 24/7 solar system monitoring and diagnostics to maximize renewable energy efficiency. Their mission-driven culture and focus on cutting-edge technology make them an exciting place to drive impact in the clean energy transition.

About This Role

As Principal CRM Architect - Applied AI, you'll lead the technical vision for Salesforce CRM, integrating AI and agentic systems to automate diagnostics and customer interactions. Your work will directly enhance system reliability and accelerate delivery across teams, shaping the future of energy management.

💡 A Day in the Life

Your day might start with a standup reviewing system health KPIs and AI model performance, then dive into designing a new event-driven integration between Salesforce and AWS for real-time diagnostic alerts. Afternoons could involve mentoring senior engineers on agentic AI patterns and collaborating with product teams to define autonomous workflows for solar system troubleshooting.

🎯 Who Omnidian Is Looking For

  • A certified Salesforce Application and System Architect with 12+ years in high-growth environments, who has led platform-wide architectural transformations.
  • Hands-on experience introducing Agentic AI or large-scale AI integrations (e.g., Agentforce, Einstein AI) into enterprise CRM systems.
  • Deep expertise in Event-Driven Architecture, Pub/Sub API, and Platform Events, with proven ability to integrate off-platform services like AWS and Snowflake.
  • A strategic leader who defines engineering KPIs, balances discipline with agility, and mentors teams to achieve long-term system reliability.

📝 Tips for Applying to Omnidian

1

Highlight specific examples of leading platform-wide architectural changes, especially decoupling monoliths into event-driven systems.

2

3

Showcase certifications (Application Architect, System Architect) prominently, and mention any AI-related credentials or projects.

4

Tailor your resume to include KPIs you've improved (e.g., reduced delivery time by X%, increased system uptime to Y%).

5

Research Omnidian's solar monitoring platform and mention how your architecture can enhance diagnostic automation or customer experience.
