The Field CTO organization sits at the intersection of our customers’ most strategic technology priorities, our field teams, and our product organization. We work with senior technology and business leaders to help them navigate complex architectural decisions, define durable technology strategies, and translate those strategies into business outcomes. 🚀 About the Role We are looking for a Field CTO specializing in Data Governance and Master Data Management (MDM) to help shape how our most strategic customers think about trusted, governed, enterprise data in an increasingly AI-driven world. This is not simply a product specialist role. The ideal candidate brings a strong point of view on enterprise data architecture, governance, metadata, MDM, data quality, and the organizational models required to make them successful. They can engage credibly with Chief Data Officers, CIOs, Enterprise Architects, Data Governance leaders, and engineering organizations, while also helping our internal teams connect customer challenges to the broader Salesforce, Informatica, MuleSoft, Data Cloud, and Agentforce strategy. 📋 What You’ll Do Serve as a trusted technology advisor to strategic customers on **Data Governance, Master Data Management, Data Quality, Metadata Management, and enterprise data architecture**. Engage with CIOs, CDOs, CTOs, Enterprise Architects, and other senior leaders to define data strategies aligned to their broader business and technology objectives. Help customers establish modern governance architectures that balance enterprise-wide standards and controls with the realities of decentralized business units, platforms, clouds, and data estates. Advise customers on MDM strategy, including domain modeling, identity resolution, hierarchy management, reference data, survivorship, stewardship, data quality, and the operational models required to sustain trusted master data. Connect traditional data management disciplines with emerging requirements created by **AI and autonomous agents**, including trusted context, governed access, semantic consistency, metadata, lineage, policy enforcement, and data quality. Develop architectural points of view for customers operating across complex hybrid and multi-cloud environments. Help customers understand the relationship between their data, integration, API, application, and AI strategies rather than treating each as an independent technology decision. Lead executive briefings, architecture workshops, strategy sessions, and other high-value customer engagements. Partner with Account Executives, Solution Engineers, Account Partners, and other field leaders on our most strategic and complex opportunities. Help shape account strategy where architecture, organizational complexity, or technology fragmentation represents a major barrier to customer transformation. Act as an escalation and advisory resource for complex customer architecture questions involving Data Governance and MDM. Bring patterns, lessons, competitive intelligence, and emerging customer requirements back to Product and Engineering leadership. Partner closely with Sal
