Summary
Jeff Hilyard is a senior manager and Salesforce architect who blends a rare mix of hands-on engineering, enterprise CRM strategy, and cross-domain business experience accumulated over nearly a decade in tech roles and much longer in adjacent industries. He designs and leads Education Cloud and integration projects—migrating Slate and EDA clients, building LWC components, APIs, and DevOps pipelines—while coaching teams and driving reuse and delivery velocity. His background spans higher education, finance, startups, M&A, and even nuclear submarine operations, giving him a knack for rapid learning and disciplined systems thinking under pressure. Known as a “technology sponge,” he pairs practical coding (Python, Node, Apex) with governance, security integrations, and data product delivery to senior leadership. Colleagues rely on him to tackle problems he hasn’t seen before and turn them into repeatable, well-documented solutions.
