Hire Salesforce developers

At KPS, Salesforce developers aren’t treated as one role. Before sourcing, we translate your business needs into a clear scope: which clouds you run (Sales Cloud, Service Cloud, Salesforce Marketing Cloud), what changes are expected, and what support looks like after go-live.

We screen for fit to your reality, not just years in Salesforce. The first check is a track record on similar work: comparable workflows, data volume, integrations, and governance level. So you get a skilled Salesforce developer who can operate inside your delivery rhythm.

Next, we validate the core skill set: Apex, SOQL, JavaScript, and Lightning Web Components (LWC), plus Lightning Components work that produces maintainable UI. A separate check confirms the right Salesforce tools are used instead of hardcoding what can be configured safely.

In the technical assessment, we use scenarios from your use case. Judgment is checked: when point-and-click is enough, when custom code is required, and how constraints are handled, because the Salesforce developer depends on context, not templates.

Certifications matter when they match the project. If you rely on modern LWC, we prioritize JavaScript Developer I and, when relevant, a Salesforce-certified platform developer.

Finally, the engagement model is aligned with the scope. In-house works best for ongoing customization and ownership. Contracted support fits a defined delivery scope, if post-implementation maintenance is planned from day one and covered by certified Salesforce developers.

A strong Salesforce developer is not just "adding features". They help your CRM support how sales, support, and ops actually work day to day. That usually starts with app development and workflow automation that removes manual steps like copy-pasting data, chasing approvals, and updating records in two places.

They also improve customer experience by building tailored flows: the right fields, screens, validations, and approvals for your process. When teams stop working around the CRM, deals move cleaner through stages, and cases get resolved with fewer escalations. This is where technical expertise shows up in the details.

On the data side, custom Salesforce development improves data accuracy and reduces operational overhead. Developers set up rules that prevent duplicates, standardize required fields, and keep reporting stable when processes change: practical custom solutions that reduce rework.

For decision-makers, one of the most visible benefits is dashboards that consolidate information from multiple sources into one view. This supports faster decisions because teams work from the same numbers instead of debating which report is "correct", and it creates clearer, actionable insights.

Finally, Salesforce developers make data flow between systems predictable through integrations. When these links are designed properly, departments get real-time visibility without exports, manual reconciliation, or delayed updates. The kind of delivery you expect from the best Salesforce developers.

Most companies don’t need "one Salesforce person". They need the right mix of roles based on scope, ownership, and how fast the org will evolve. That’s why we start by mapping what your teams use Salesforce for today, what’s breaking in day-to-day work, and what you expect to change in the next few quarters. So staffing supports real business growth.

For long-term platform stability, Salesforce architects design the data architecture and define a scaling strategy, so new objects, automations, and integrations don’t turn into a patchwork later. For day-to-day reliability, Salesforce administrators handle support, optimization, and maintenance without writing custom code. Access, page layouts, reports, and keeping the org clean, often alongside Salesforce consultants who help prioritize changes.

When you’re shipping changes regularly, QA specialists are the safety layer. They test flows, permissions, and edge cases before release, so you avoid costly post-launch fixes and breakages across sales and support, especially when changes touch key marketing platforms.

Across all these roles, communication matters. Salesforce developers translate business needs into technical solutions, align on acceptance criteria, and document decisions so work doesn’t get stuck in one person’s head. This is where qualified talent makes the difference. And for delivery hygiene, we expect DevOps practices that fit your release process: version control, structured deployments, and CI/CD, which reduces manual release risk, so teams can deliver solutions predictably.

At KPS, we treat cost as salary plus the operating layer around delivery. Salesforce ships three major releases per year, so the total cost of ownership also includes regression testing, fixing broken automations, and updating UI components after each release, not just the initial build. This is where support automation and reliable release routines start paying off.

• USA (Glassdoor): typical total pay range is about $96K–$161K/year, with an estimated average around $124K/year for Salesforce Developer roles, especially when you need specialized talent for complex clouds and org setups.

• Canada (Glassdoor): estimates commonly land around CA$89K–CA$131K/year, depending on seniority, scope, and the depth of niche skills required.

• Europe (Glassdoor, UK): senior Salesforce developer estimates often sit roughly around £70K–£105K/year, but ranges differ by country and how much your team relies on middleware platforms and integrations.

Ukraine (DOU): DOU reports medians in USD "net" by level (not Salesforce-specific). Winter 2024 medians: Junior ~$950, Middle ~$2,500, Senior ~$4,738. Teams often hire from this market when they need dedicated Salesforce-certified developers at a lower total cost.

Hiring model changes the math. In-house hiring is usually $90K–$150K/year plus benefits, HR time, taxes, equipment, and retention costs. Offshore or freelance support can be $15–$35/hour, and works best when the scope and handover are defined, and someone owns post-launch support. Especially if you’re maintaining legacy systems alongside Salesforce.

At KPS, this starts with a short intake led by our HR team and a technical reviewer. Before you hire a Salesforce developer, we translate your scope into what the role owns: a one-off build vs ongoing ownership, the clouds involved, and what "done" means after go-live (support, fixes, small iterations) within your Salesforce ecosystem.

Then we shape the job description around how your team works: who the developer collaborates with, how changes get approved, how often you release, and what level of autonomy is expected. This reduces mismatches where a strong engineer joins but can’t operate at your pace or decision-making model during Salesforce implementation.

We also make maintainability a requirement. The job description should state that the developer must provide documentation and explain the data model for future maintenance: key objects, relationships, and why certain design choices were made. This makes handover realistic and supports ongoing Salesforce customization without relying on tribal knowledge.

Finally, we treat Salesforce certifications as a benchmark. Our HR team uses them to filter candidates early, and the technical team checks if the certification matches the work you need. This helps you focus on certified Salesforce developers and reduces the number of irrelevant interviews.
