# Cumulus Vision

> Senior Salesforce engineering for complex environments since 2012.

Cumulus Vision is a San Francisco-based Salesforce engineering firm that provides custom development, API integrations, and managed engineering services for mid-market and enterprise companies. Founded in 2012, the team consists exclusively of senior engineers with 5-10+ years of Salesforce platform experience.

## What We Do

- **Custom API & Cloud Platform Integrations**: Secure, high-performance data connections between Salesforce and external systems (MuleSoft, Dell Boomi, AWS, Azure, ServiceNow, SharePoint). 6-12 week engagements.
- **Custom Salesforce Applications & Solutions**: Custom Apex, Lightning Web Components, Experience Cloud portals, and performance optimization when configuration hits its limits. 6-24 week engagements.
- **Managed Development & Integration Services**: Ongoing senior engineering capacity for backlog clearance, architectural audits, AI implementation, and platform modernization. Ongoing partnerships.
- **AI App Modernization & Shadow AI Governance**: Employees are vibe coding internal tools with Lovable, Cursor, Replit, and Bolt that don't connect to Salesforce. We audit these shadow AI apps, connect them to Salesforce as the system of record, migrate them to production infrastructure (Vercel, Railway, Supabase), and provide ongoing managed services and governance frameworks to prevent AI app sprawl.

## How We're Different

- Every team member is a senior engineer (5-10+ years). No pyramid staffing model.
- Engineers write production code and work directly with client teams — no project manager middlemen.
- Software engineering discipline: version control, peer reviews, Git-based CI/CD pipelines.
- AI-enhanced delivery using the proprietary 5A Framework (Assess, Architect, Automate, Assure, Adapt).
- First client from 2012 is still a partner today.
