Connect AI agents to the Salesforce org you already run.
Foundry Tabor is Will Simmons: over ten years of shipping software, most recently at IBM Consulting, now independent. I build AI agents and the MCP servers that connect them to Salesforce and the rest of your systems, plus the Lightning Web Components, Experience Cloud sites and React products your people use. Directly, or as senior capacity inside your agency.
Three ways in, one engineer.
Every engagement is one of these, whether you hire me directly or through your agency. Each one ends in writing your team can keep.
Review
A written assessment of your Salesforce org or codebase: what's at risk, what it costs to fix, and in what order.
- AI readiness: where an agent fits your data and systems
- Connecting Salesforce and AI tools over MCP
- Org and code health: LWC, Experience Cloud, Apex tests
- The report is yours, whoever does the work
Sprint
A defined piece of work, built and shipped: a component, an integration, a rescue, a feature.
- AI agents & MCP servers
- LWC, Experience Cloud & B2B Commerce
- React, Next.js & TypeScript
- Ships with a handover document and decision log
Retainer
A senior engineer on your roster without the headcount, working in your tools, and under your name if you're an agency.
- Overflow capacity and platform depth
- Estimates, SOW sections & solution designs
- Code review & mentoring for your team
- A written summary at the end of every month
Directly, or through the people you already use.
The offers and the engineer are the same either way. What changes is whose name is on the work and who holds the relationship.
Directly
You contract with Foundry Tabor and work with me from the first call to the last deploy.
Through your agency
White-label senior capacity. I work in your tools and under your brand, and your client relationships stay yours.
Read the work before you hire it.
Field notes from real engagements, anonymized and published weekly. The reviews, handover documents and decision records you'd get are written the same way.
Pagination gotchas in LWC
A pager looks like three buttons, but most of the work is in edge cases: the data shrinking under you, screen readers, and the site theme.
localhost isn't one address
Dev container OAuth that times out, and the IPv6 loopback behind it.
Over ten years of shipping software.
Before Foundry Tabor, I spent over ten years shipping software: most recently five years at IBM Consulting, building for federal and state agencies and Fortune 500 clients, and before that on product teams and at a Salesforce consultancy.
That experience is the point: you get enterprise-grade rigor without the enterprise-grade org chart between you and the person writing the code.
