The Path of a Salesforce Trailblazer
Maham’s path into Salesforce was a lucky one. In 2013, she started as a QA engineer, not knowing that a job change would start a passion that would shape her whole career. When her team saw her skill as a developer and pushed her to make the change, Maham fully embraced the chance.
For Maham, moving into Salesforce development was like opening a box of endless chances. She jumped into learning, driven by a strong curiosity and a growing fondness for the platform.

As professionals faced job losses and uncertainty, Maham got many messages from people eager to look into Salesforce as a career path.
Seeing the big potential of Salesforce, Maham took it upon herself to guide and mentor these hopeful trailblazers.

Whether one is drawn to the role of an admin, developer, consultant, architect, or business analyst, Salesforce has a place for everyone.
What makes Salesforce special, in Maham’s view, is its focus on helping others through ongoing learning. Trailhead, with its huge library of resources and certifications, allows trailblazers to improve their skills and stay current. The active Trailblazer Community, a worldwide network of supportive people, is always ready to lend a hand and share knowledge. This emphasis on growth, combined with the chance to work with cutting-edge tech, makes a Salesforce career truly worthwhile.
