Job Description

About the Role

We're looking for a sharp, strategic operator to join our team as Principal, DAA Programs—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 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.

Key Responsibilities

Build and run operating cadences: OKRs, QBRs, cross-functional checkpoints, and communications that keep everyone aligned and accountable
Partner with the CDAO on team strategy, executive-level storytelling, and organizational 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

Requirements

7+ years of experience in strategy, operations, or cross-functional program leadership
Exceptional written and verbal communication skills—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 organizations

Nice to Have

Experience or deep curiosity in data, analytics, and AI domains

Qualifications

Experience in strategy, operations, or cross-functional program leadership

Flexible spending & health savings account
At least 12 paid holidays and paid time off
