Hi SFDC Architects, career pivot question I could use your help with please.

If I'm a well-experienced (healthcare/life sciences) Pega SA pivoting to an SFDC SA/Health Cloud career, which learning/certifications should I focus on first?

Goals are a fast pivot with minimal loss of Sr job level; continue leveraging healthcare and life sciences industry expertise.

Attained the Omnistudio Developer cert for understanding structure and building blocks, but which certs come next and why?

Honestly— you may be able to make the switch pretty quickly. Healthcare is in high demand.
DM me if you want to chat- my firm is hiring and supporting large public health initiatives.

To answer your question, as an industry SME/SA, I’d recommend:
Admin Cert
App Builder Cert
Service Cloud consultant cert (or at least master the underlying content)
And do all the Health Cloud Trailhead trails

...tried replying to your last comment in our chat, but it appears the chat is now closed.

It's your career advice that was most important. Really appreciate you taking the time. Not here to market someone for a job opportunity, but happy to send you his resume via chat if you were inclined.

Even if that were a complimentary referral :)

Salesforce Certified Administrator. This is the foundational cert - attain it by focusing on training in Trailhead. Focus on the Admin - Beginner path, then intermediate, then advanced.

Core knowledge of the platform is critical for an architect, otherwise you are reliant upon your consulting partners until someone in your organization becomes an expert.

OmniStudio cert is great but it’s just one set of tools that sits on a massive platform. Google the “Salesforce CTA pyramid” which will show you the various certs associated with the System Architect and Application Architect designations.

OP - can you clarify if you are changing roles within the same organization or are going to a different company? If you focused on OmniStudio first I have to imagine it’s because you are going through digital transformation at your company? My assumption is you are looking for the best way to get comfortable in your new tech stack

The goal is pivoting from a Pega SA / Healthcare role to an SFDC SA / Health Cloud role while minimizing impact on job level.

I would recommend sharing and visibility designer. Sharing screws over a lot of SAs.

Who can see what records. If you get a client with a least restrictive visibility model then it’s a delicate art to handle granting visibility/accessibility to data with tools like roles, sharing rules, apex/flow, and manual sharing. If you get it wrong from the get go it’s a painfully buggy experience.
