Experience Cloud Developer

The Experience Cloud Developer – TrustLaw will help to transform the TrustLaw Members’ Portal – developing features to take it from a simple platform, through which we connect high-impact NGOs and social enterprises with leading law firms and corporate legal teams, to an interactive ecosystem that also offers opportunities for learning, knowledge-sharing, innovation, networking and collaboration.

The person in this role will design and develop the member-facing features housed in the TrustLaw Members’ Portal, including tools for members to apply, connect with each other, track the progress of their projects, view and engage with learning resources and reports, and easily access pro bono projects and support.

The person in this role will largely work independently to develop features, with some support/input from the Salesforce Administrator (who handles the TRF’s team-facing Salesforce instance) and Head of Design (who will provide design guidance and wireframes, as needed).

We are looking for an individual who is passionate about using technology to improve a successful, global pro bono legal service that helps NGOs, social enterprises and lawyers drive social change.

About the Role

As an Experience Cloud Developer at Thomson Reuters Foundation, you will:

• Work with the Head of Programmes, Portal Project Manager, and TrustLaw team to understand priorities and deliver on a road map for refining existing Members’ Portal features and developing new features.
• Translate business requirements into well-architected solutions that meet the needs of TrustLaw’s members.
• Lead on all coding, integrations, and development work.
• Leverage out-of-the box Experience Cloud components and develop custom solutions for the TrustLaw Members’ Portal. Advise on how business requirements can be met with either point-and-click configuration or code and customization.
• Write and execute test plans, engage the TrustLaw team in testing, and ensure a high-quality solution is delivered.
• Work with the Head of Design, Head of UX and TrustLaw team to ensure the design, look, and feel of the Members’ Portal align with TRF brand standards and enable a positive user experience.
• Manage feature requests end-to-end from design to prototyping to QA to implementation
• Follow and understand new Experience Cloud product and technical capabilities resulting from product releases and acquisitions.
• Engage with TRF’s Product and Technology team to ensure development aligns with their technical standards and approaches, and that work is properly documented.
• Report to the Head of Technology in the Product and Technology team; have a dotted line to the Portal Project Manager in the TrustLaw team and work exclusively on the TrustLaw Portal project.

For example, the person in this role may focus on the following in their first three to six months:

• Enhance the look, design and functionality of current portal features, which were recently developed to a basic level by an external team via Experience Cloud.
• Build connection and networking features for members
• Build and/or integrate new pages for TrustLaw members to 1) find upcoming events and 2) find/engage with learning resources, guides, and webinars
• Design and build an engaging impact dashboard for members to see the impact of their projects and refine the project results tracking tools in the portal
• Work with the Project Manager to sketch out the road map for Phase 2 portal development
