Senior🎓
Top SchoolBrett Barlow is a seasoned Salesforce Engineer with nine years of hands-on experience and ten Salesforce certifications, including Platform Developer II. He has led or contributed to 19 implementations across startups and enterprises—driving scalable designs at Google for a 25k+ user org and pioneering Postmates’ Salesforce practice as its first hire. A self-taught innovator and people manager, Brett blends deep technical skills (Apex, LWC, SFDX, DevOps) with architecture and delivery expertise to solve high-impact problems like SOQL optimization and Lightning migrations. He regularly shares his knowledge on major stages (Dreamforce, TrailheaDX, Forcelandia) and has a track record of rapidly leveling up, once earning four certifications in five weeks while doing pro bono nonprofit work. What’s less obvious: his background in law enforcement and international studies informs a disciplined, security-minded approach to compliance and complex org design.
