Engagement Context
A FOCI\-mitigated subsidiary is being stood up from a parent organization to comply with U.S. defense\-industrial regulations. A defense\-relevant subset of the parent's Salesforce footprint must be migrated into a new Salesforce Government Cloud Plus (GC\+) environment, with legacy Salesforce CPQ refactored into Revenue Cloud, by July 1, 2026 (firm). The contractor will own end\-to\-end delivery for an initial user base of approximately 20 internal users on a simplified, flat security model. This is not a portal build and not a customer\-facing Experience Cloud engagement.
What You'll Own
- -------------------
- Lead a Customer\-approved discovery covering the parent org's objects, fields, metadata, automations, products, pricing, and CPQ logic; produce a defensible scope baseline and migration plan.
- Stand up the target Salesforce GC\+ environment (sandbox \+ production), including a flat security model using standard Profiles to the maximum extent practical, with two to three custom Permission Sets for Revenue Cloud, PSA, and other Customer\-approved restricted access.
- Refactor Customer\-approved legacy CPQ data structures, logic, and supporting processes into Revenue Cloud, including Quote and Order document templates.
- Migrate Customer\-approved objects, fields, accounts, related records, product catalog, and Price Book Entries into the target org. Implementation is single\-currency (USD), single\-region (United States), Standard Price Book.
- Identify, assess, migrate, and validate Customer\-approved Apex, Flows, workflow rules, and validation rules. Automation migration is expected to be minimal.
- Design and implement a custom data structure to store, manage, and associate license keys and license files with customer entitlements (the customer\-facing portal that consumes these is a separate, third\-party effort and is out of scope for this role).
- Execute migration testing, reconciliation, and validation. Support Customer\-led UAT (the Customer drives UAT; you remediate defects).
- Plan and execute production cutover; provide week\-one hypercare; deliver architecture documentation, configuration documentation, and admin handoff.
- ----------------------------
- ----------------------
- M\&A or divestiture\-driven Salesforce migration experience (carve\-outs, source\-to\-target object/data filtering against a parent org).
- FOCI\-mitigated subsidiary or NISPOM\-adjacent program experience.
- Familiarity with Salesforce PSA / FinancialForce / Certinia (referenced in the Permission Set scope).
- Experience producing migration validation and reconciliation evidence acceptable to a defense\-customer compliance reviewer.
- -------------------------
- --------------------------------------
- All personnel must be residing and performing work within the United States
- All customer data, transactional data, migration extracts, staging data, and backups must remain within the United States and within Customer\-approved environments at all times.
- Migration tooling for live business data must operate within a FedRAMP Moderate or GCC High compliant data plane, or use Customer\-approved temporary direct API access. No live customer or transactional data may be processed, transmitted, staged, or stored in a non\-authorized environment.
- SaaS\-based metadata deployment tools are permitted for configuration migration (XML metadata, Apex, Flow definitions) provided they do not process or store live customer or transactional data.
- ---------------------------
- A production Salesforce GC\+ environment containing the Customer\-approved migrated data set, required product and pricing structures, approved security model, migrated and validated business functionality, and the operational capability to support assumed contracts and initiate new sales activities — operational on or before July 1, 2026.
- Successful data reconciliation within agreed tolerance thresholds, validated security model, and Customer\-signed acceptance of all eight contracted deliverables.
You will perform all five delivery phases — Discovery, Design \& Build, Migration \& Validation, UAT \& Cutover, and Closeout — as the single accountable architect.
Mandatory Qualifications
* Continental United States (CONUS) residency. All work performed within CONUS on compliant hardware.
* Salesforce Government Cloud Plus hands\-on experience. Direct experience with GC\+ feature lag, AppExchange package gaps, and FedRAMP Moderate / GCC High data\-plane constraints on tooling.
* Revenue Cloud delivery experience — Product Selling Models, Pricing Procedures, Product Related Components, quote\-to\-order flow. Not legacy CPQ\-only experience.
* Legacy Salesforce CPQ working knowledge sufficient to refactor existing CPQ logic into Revenue Cloud. You must understand both sides of the line.
* Salesforce data migration at production scale using compliance\-acceptable tooling (sfdx / Salesforce CLI, direct REST/Bulk API approaches, Copado GovCloud or equivalent FedRAMP\-Moderate\-compliant deployment tools). Familiarity with what tools you cannot use in a GC\+ data plane is as important as what you can.
* Apex, Flow, and metadata management to a senior level.
* End\-to\-end SOW delivery accountability as the lead architect on at least one prior engagement of comparable shape (multi\-phase, fixed\-deadline, single\-architect\-led).
* Salesforce Certifications: Application Architect or System Architect required. Platform Developer II strongly preferred. Revenue Cloud Accredited Professional or equivalent demonstrable Revenue Cloud delivery experience required.
Strongly Preferred
Engagement Parameters
* Engagement type: Fixed\-scope SOW; estimated 320 hours total LOE across all five phases.
* Duration: Approximately 9 weeks from kickoff to production cutover. Production readiness no later than July 1, 2026\.
* Allocation: Full\-time across the engagement.
* Reporting: To the Arganteal engagement lead; primary client interface with the FOCI\-mitigated Customer, with coordination touchpoints to the parent organization on source\-system access and approvals.
* Travel: None but you must be located within the United States.
