Salesforce Developer
About ThousandEyes (part of Cisco)
The name ThousandEyes was born from two big ideas: the power to see things not ordinarily possible and the ability to collect insights from a multitude of vantage points. As organizations rely more on cloud services and the Internet, the network has become a "black box" outside of their control. ThousandEyes gives organizations visibility and insight into the now borderless network. It arms them with an accurate understanding of how the network impacts their applications, users and customers. ThousandEyes is used by some of the world's largest and fastest growing brands, including all of the top 5 global software companies, 5 of the top 6 US banks, and 45 of the Fortune 500.
ThousandEyes is a newly acquired member of the Cisco family, and we are looking to expand our Sales operations team. This is an outstanding opportunity to be part of an exciting, fast-paced industry with a lot of potential for future growth and career-advancement.
About the Role
ThousandEyes is seeking a highly motivated Salesforce Developer to join our Global Sales Operations team. You’ll be a key member of our team and instrumental in defining the business processes to scale the company.

You will be responsible for ongoing optimization requests of our Salesforce instance by responding to and delegating tickets, gathering requirements, developing processes based on best practices, and implementing automation to increase efficiency. This position requires an individual who is team-oriented and able to collaborate, excited to support a growing organization, driven to produce high-quality results, and a self starter that thrives on learning and continued improvement. An example of a near-term focus will be integrating ThousandEyes' Salesforce system and business process with other Cisco Business Units.
