Description

At Salesforce, we are flattening barriers and connecting companies with their customers in entirely new ways. But building groundbreaking cloud technology on a global scale means navigating a complex web of international laws. That’s where you come in.

We’re looking for a sharp, energetic Global Trade Compliance Analyst to join our elite Global Trade team. Reporting directly to the Head of Global Trade, you won't just be checking boxes—you will be a vital protector of our company’s mission, helping us safely navigate ITAR, EAR, and international regulations. If you love solving complex global puzzles and want to be part of a team that empowers a tech giant to grow responsibly, you’ve found your next home. You will work out of the Salesforce office three days a week.

What You’ll Actually Be Doing

  • Champion Defense Trade: Take the reins on daily ITAR program activities, supporting everything from DDTC registration and licensing to keeping our records pristine.

  • Be the Classification Guru: Track, maintain, and master our HTS codes, ECCNs, and Commodity Jurisdiction determinations so our tech moves seamlessly.

  • Protect the Ecosystem: Run essential due diligence by screening business partners, vendors, and customers against restricted party lists—acting as our first line of defense.

  • Fuel the Pipeline: Assist in drafting, submitting, and managing critical export licenses, exemptions, and authorizations.

  • Keep Us Ahead of the Curve: Dive into fascinating research on evolving global trade regulations and transform that data into engaging, modern training materials for the wider Salesforce team.

  • Collaborate and Support: Partner closely with our internal trade counsel and professionals, providing the administrative and analytical backbone that keeps our global team moving fast.

You’re Our Person If You Have...

  • The Track Record: 5+ years of hands-on experience as a global trade compliance professional, ideally with deep familiarity with tech or software environments.

  • The Regulatory Toolkit: You speak EAR, ITAR, FTR, and CBP fluently. You know how to interpret the rules and apply them to real-world business scenarios. (Bonus points if you also know your way around EU and UK trade regulations!).

  • System Savvy: You have experience navigating government portals like SNAP-R, DTRADE, and DECCS, and you’re comfortable using modern compliance screening tools.

  • Analytical Superpowers: You have an eye for detail, a high ethical radar, and the unique ability to translate dense, complex technical concepts into clear, actionable advice for stakeholders.

  • A Growth Mindset: You are a self-starter who thrives in a fast-paced, evolving environment. You love collaborating with virtual, cross-functional teams to solve tricky problems and drive them to the finish line.
