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.
About the Team
Strategic Finance is the commercial and analytical engine behind Snowflake's product and revenue decisions. The team operates at the intersection of product strategy, pricing, and investment prioritization. Strategic Engagements, the function this role sits within, owns Snowflake's most consequential customer pursuits, partnerships, and M&A engagements. We bring financial, product, market, and pricing depth to the deals that determine quarters, set commercial precedent, and shape Snowflake's largest customer relationships.
About the Role
We are hiring two Strategic Engagements Deal Leads to own the commercial structuring and execution of Snowflake's most consequential customer engagements across North America. You will own the deal-by-deal economic frame, commercial recommendation, and structuring approach for the company's highest-priority strategic engagements. The portfolio spans the full range of qualifying deals: net-new logo acquisitions, multi-year capacity expansions in installed-base accounts, partnership-driven commercial structures, and deals that set commercial precedent for new business models.
You will partner directly with account leadership, Specialist Sales, AI Specialists, Deal Desk, Legal, Pricing, and Revenue Accounting. You will join customer conversations on qualifying deals, particularly with senior customer stakeholders (CFO, COO, CIO, CPO). The account team owns the customer relationship and close authority. You bring the commercial, financial, and pricing depth into the room and run the cross-functional play so the AE can stay focused on the customer.
This is a generalist deal role at Phase 1. You will run any qualifying deal type. As the team and pipeline scale, deal coverage may specialize, with selection driven by Phase 1 outcomes, deal flow patterns, and your demonstrated strengths.
In This Role You Will
-
Own Snowflake's Internal Deal Economics. Build the deal-by-deal economic frame for qualifying engagements: workload mix, capacity sizing, multi-year ramp, hybrid AI structures, multi-product economics, and competitive positioning. Translate the frame into a clear internal commercial recommendation that supports the account team's path to close. The account team owns the customer relationship and close authority; you own the Snowflake-side economic and structuring work.
