It’s official: Salesforce has been recognized by Forbes as one of America’s Best Employers for Engineers 2026. This recognition is a reflection of the incredible teams that make our work possible. Our engineers, leaders, and customers continue to push boundaries together, proving that innovation thrives when passion and purpose meet.
Defining the Agentic Enterprise: How Our Teams are Building the Future
This Forbes recognition comes at a critical moment as we execute on our biggest initiative: pioneering the agentic enterprise. An agentic enterprise is more than a company leveraging products — it’s a fundamental phase of business evolution. We’re building a seamless ecosystem where human talent and sophisticated AI agents (hello, Agentforce) work side-by-side, achieving unprecedented levels of efficiency and allowing employees to spend more time purpose-driven work.
Our teams are embedding Agentforce into the core products our customers use every day. More critically, we’ve developed the complete Agentforce 360 platform. This means we are moving beyond siloed tools or limited “copilots” to create a unified system where agents listen, reason, and act across entire workflows.
This is already happening with customers like Opentable, PepsiCo and Williams-Sonoma, Inc., who are transforming their operations and elevating customer success using Agentforce 360.
The Ultimate Mission: Forward Deployed Engineers
To scale this vision across our customers, we need highly skilled engineers on the ground. That’s why we’re laser-focused on scaling one of our most exciting roles: the Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE).
FDEs are technical architects and immersive leaders who bring our most advanced AI solutions to life for our biggest clients. This role is the perfect blend of high-level strategy and deep technical execution.
It’s for engineers who are ready to:
- Become deeply embedded with customers to untangle their most complex challenges.
- Architect sophisticated, end-to-end solutions powered by our connected enterprise agentic platform.
- Own the technical strategy and drive the delivery of measurable, business-changing impact.
Here, your code doesn’t live in isolation — it powers real transformation at the world’s leading companies. The work you do will shape how industries adopt AI in this pivotal era.
Join the team Forbes named one of America’s Best for Engineers, and help build the future of AI with us.
