About the Team The People Technology team builds and operates the systems that support how OpenAI hires, develops, and supports its people. The team brings together People Systems and People Innovation Labs, a product engineering group focused on rethinking how we find and retain exceptional talent and help employees do their best work.

At Snowflake, we are powering the era of the agentic enterprise. To usher in this new era, we seek AI-native thinkers across every function who are energized by the opportunity to reinvent how they work. You don’t just use tools; you possess an innate curiosity, treating AI as a high-trust collaborator that is core to how you solve problems and accelerate your impact. We look for low-ego individuals who thrive in dynamic and fast-moving environments and move with an experimental mindset — who rapidly test emerging capabilities to discover simpler, more powerful ways to deliver results. At Snowflake, your role isn't just to execute a function, but to help redefine the future of how work gets done. Staff Data Scientist, Finance About the Team The Finance Data Science team builds the forecasting and decision systems that power Snowflake's financial planning, operating cadence, and long-term strategy. Our work informs executive decision-making, product and go-to-market priorities, resource allocation, pricing, and cross-functional decisions across Finance, Product, Sales, and Data Science. We are expanding a driver-based revenue modeling platform that translates product and workload activity into trusted financial outcomes. The program began with one product category and will scale a common modeling and publishing framework across Snowflake's product categories. The models are highly visible, refreshed frequently, and designed for self-service scenario planning and business reviews. The Role We are hiring a Staff Data Scientist to lead the next phase of Snowflake's driver-based revenue modeling program. This role is not just about building models. It is about creating reliable, explainable, production-grade decision systems that connect upstream business and product levers to revenue outcomes.

This role exists to make procurement a source of leverage for the business, not friction. Your goal is to build scalable process, take on vendor management and RFP work that today sits informally with individual teams, and free up business owners' time and capacity, all while building the guardrails the company needs as it grows. You'll partner closely with Finance, Legal, Security, Compliance, IT, and business owners across the company, and you'll be judged on whether teams feel supported and unblocked, not slowed down.
