Job Description

The data is correct:
  • Maintain data integrity across a large org with extensive custom configuration
  • Build and maintain reconciliation checks between Salesforce and its source systems, so that drift surfaces automatically rather than being discovered by a colleague
  • Deduplicate contact and household records; manage imports and extracts
  • Recognize and prevent silent data loss, the class of failure where a source field exceeds a Salesforce limit and a record is rejected with no error reaching anyone
  • Own the data-quality standard for what “correct” means, and be able to evidence it
  • The data is protected:
  • Administer users, profiles, roles, permission sets, sharing rules, and field-level security on a least-privilege basis
  • Run periodic access reviews so that permissions are actively maintained rather than accumulated
  • Handle mentor, student, and donor records in line with FERPA, donor obligations, and iMentor data protection policy
  • Follow iMentor's policies on credential handling, software installation, and third-party access to iMentor systems, and raise concerns early
  • Support the organization's SOC 2 work with evidence from your area
  • This is data stewardship within the systems you administer. It is not an information security role; you will have security colleagues.
  • The integrations work:
  • Own the integrations that feed Salesforce: FormAssembly (mentor applications), our in-house Platform, Campaign Monitor, Eventbrite, DocuSign, Calendly, DemandTools, and our donation tools
  • Diagnose failed and partial records end to end, using connector and integration logs alongside Salesforce, and trace root cause back to the source system rather than patching the symptom at our end
  • Configure and maintain field mappings, record-matching criteria, and upsert keys
  • Be consulted on changes to any system that writes into Salesforce, so that schema and process changes upstream do not arrive as surprises
  • Teams are Unblocked:
  • Triage and resolve requests through our ticket queue, keeping non-technical colleagues clearly informed in writing
  • Train and enable staff through materials, demos, and sessions, so that routine requests become self-service over time
  • Document configuration, workflows, and the reasoning behind decisions, so that knowledge does not sit with one person
  • Administer NPSP, including households, affiliations, relationships, recurring donations, and rollup behavior, and support Development on donation data and campaign structure
  • Manage the three annual Salesforce releases: review release notes, test in a sandbox (scheduled outside business hours where needed), and communicate what is changing
  • :

    First 90 Days

  • Build a working map of every system that writes into Salesforce, what it writes, and how failures currently surface
  • Stand up reconciliation checks between Salesforce and at least two source systems, so divergence is detected automatically
  • Complete a full access review and bring permissions to least privilege
  • Clear the inherited backlog in the support queue and establish what routine looks like
  • :

    Qualifications

  • At least 3 years of Salesforce administration experience in an organization with 100+ users
  • Demonstrated experience troubleshooting integrations between Salesforce and third-party systems, including reading logs to establish root cause
  • Experience with data import, export, and deduplication at scale
  • Experience administering users, profiles, permission sets, and sharing rules
  • Experience supporting users through a ticketing system
  • Able to explain a technical constraint and its trade-offs to a non-technical colleague in writing
  • Comfortable using AI tools in daily technical work, and disciplined about verifying their output before it reaches production. We care more about your judgment on when an answer is wrong than about which tools you have used
  • Bachelor's degree, or equivalent practical experience
  • :

    Strongly Preferred

  • Nonprofit Success Pack (NPSP) experience
  • Salesforce Administrator Certification
  • API integration experience and comfort with Postman, curl, and JSON
  • Apex, SOQL, and Flow
  • Experience administering FormAssembly, Campaign Monitor, Eventbrite, or DocuSign
  • Experience working under a compliance framework such as SOC 2, FERPA, or similar
  • Compensation and Benefits:
  • Salary $80,000 – $90,000 commensurate with experience
  • Up to 100% employer funded comprehensive medical and dental coverage
  • 18 days paid annual vacation (increasing annually to 21, 23, 25), 13 paid holidays + your birthday + one floating holiday, iMentor closed between Christmas and New Year’s Day, plus 6-7 sick days annually
  • 401K match up to 4%
  • Hybrid Home/Office/School working arrangement
  • Pre-tax commuter benefits
  • Dependent care and health care flexible spending plans
  • Flexible personnel wellness budget for reimbursements or marketplace purchases

  • About iMentor

    iMentor believes that all students deserve an equitable chance to pursue their ambitions. Our program builds authentic mentoring relationships in order to bring greater equity to our students’ educational journeys. Through these long-term relationships, first-generation, students of color from underserved communities increase their access to the knowledge, experiences, and resources required to succeed in college or their post-secondary pathway of choice, and to pursue their career ambitions.

    By partnering with public schools serving primarily first-generation college students and providing every student in the school with a mentor, iMentor supports students’ post-secondary journeys with a level of depth and personalization that cannot be matched by traditional advising models. iMentor’s students are 37% more likely to enroll in college and are graduating college at double the rates of their peers.

    iMentor’s Commitment to Diversity, Equity & Inclusion

    We believe that people of all backgrounds deserve equal access to educational opportunities.

We are committed to the collective work and intentional investment necessary to consistently move in the direction of educational equity and inclusion. Learn more at www.iMentor.org.
