At some employers, developers advance by moving up an established tier (e.g., junior developer to intermediate developer to senior developer) and by receiving pay raises for each promotion. Salesforce developers can also become Salesforce architects, who design domain-specific, multi-cloud solutions on the Salesforce platform and/or design solutions regarding platform challenges such as lack of scalability, security concerns, or performance issues. Developers can also advance to become directors of product development or even chief technology officers. Others start their own design or consulting firms, while some become corporate IT trainers or college computer science professors.
