Snowflake is about empowering enterprises to achieve their full potential — and people too. With a culture that’s all in on impact, innovation, and collaboration, Snowflake is the sweet spot for building big, moving fast, and taking technology — and careers — to the next level.
We’re looking for a sharp, strategic operator to join our team as Principal, Strategy and Operations, Data, Analytics & AI—a critical role at the heart of Snowflake’s data, analytics, and AI transformation. Reporting directly to the Chief Data & Analytics Officer (CDAO), you’ll lead high-impact initiatives that accelerate execution, foster cross-functional alignment, and drive innovation across our DAA (Data Analytics & AI) agenda.
This is not a back-office role. You’ll be in the room where decisions are made—shaping priorities, connecting dots across teams, and turning vision into action. You’ll operate as a force multiplier for the CDAO, helping scale leadership, bring clarity to complexity, and move the organization forward.
WHAT YOU'LL DO:Build and run operating cadences: OKRs, QBRs, cross-functional checkpoints, and comms that keep everyone aligned and accountable
Partner with the CDAO on team strategy, executive-level storytelling, and org design
Act as a liaison across key functions to unblock progress, shape decisions, and influence outcomes
Own special projects—whether it’s launching a new internal product, owning snow-on-snow program or hosting DAA customer summits
Serve as a trusted thought partner, helping pressure-test ideas, frame trade-offs, and anticipate what’s needed before it’s asked
7+ years of experience in strategy, operations, or cross-functional program leadership
Exceptional written and verbal communication—you're clear, concise, and persuasive
Strong executive presence with a low-ego, high-accountability mindset
Ability to navigate ambiguity, connect dots, and prioritize ruthlessly
Experience (or deep curiosity) in data, analytics, and AI domains
A track record of driving meaningful outcomes in complex orgs
This is a rare opportunity to help shape the future of data and AI at one of the most influential companies in the industry. If you’re energized by impact, thrive at the intersection of strategy and execution, and want a front-row seat to how modern data orgs operate—this role is for you.
Every Snowflake employee is expected to follow the company’s confidentiality and security standards for handling sensitive data. Snowflake employees must abide by the company’s data security plan as an essential part of their duties. It is every employee's duty to keep customer information secure and confidential.
Snowflake is growing fast, and we’re scaling our team to help enable and accelerate our growth. We are looking for people who share our values, challenge ordinary thinking, and push the pace of innovation while building a future for themselves and Snowflake.
