Salesforce Developer

Daniel Ballinger Portfolio

Salesforce MVP and senior developer at FuseIT whose FishOfPrey blog spans 200+ posts from 2008 to 2021, pairing release-by-release notes for the FuseIT SFDC Explorer tool with a Dreamforce 2019 talk on enforcing CRUD/FLS security via Security.stripInaccessible.

What makes it work

A breakdown of the choices that make this portfolio stand out.

1

A continuous public record spanning over a decade

200+ posts from 2008 to 2021 on one blog is an unusually long, sustained public track record few developers maintain.

2

Writing tied to a real, shipped tool

Publishing version-by-version release notes for FuseIT SFDC Explorer ties the writing to an actively maintained product, not just commentary.

3

A named talk on one narrow, high-value security topic

A specific Dreamforce session on Security.stripInaccessible for CRUD/FLS shows depth on a mechanism many developers only handle superficially.

What Salesforce Developers can take from this

Specific, actionable tips to apply to your own portfolio — no generic advice.

  • Consistency over years beats intensity over months — a blog still updated a decade later carries more weight than a burst of posts.

  • If you build and maintain a tool, publish its release notes publicly — they double as ongoing proof of active development skill.

  • Pick one security or reliability mechanism most developers gloss over and go deep on it publicly; narrow expertise is memorable.
