Elliott Weed

Success Architecture Director at Salesforce

I solve enterprise AI problems that do not fit neatly inside one team.

Across Agentforce and Data 360, I connect strategy, data, architecture, product, and delivery—turning ambiguity into production-ready architecture and reusable patterns.

How I work

From hard problem to durable capability.

I work at the seams: where ownership is unclear, the technology is moving, and the organization needs one coherent path forward.

01 / FIND

Find the real problem

I turn executive priorities into a bounded use case, explicit system decisions, and a path teams can actually execute.

02 / MULTIPLY

Make the solution reusable

I convert the lesson into patterns, guidance, and tools so 40+ architects can apply the judgment without recreating the struggle.

03 / OPERATE

Design for business proof

I align leaders, account teams, Product, and delivery around readiness, adoption, and measurable outcomes—not just a technically impressive demo.

Where I Lead

Enterprise AI systems, the trusted data beneath them, and the architecture discipline that makes them repeatable
