About Snorkel

At Snorkel, we believe meaningful AI doesn’t start with the model, it starts with the data.

We’re on a mission to help enterprises transform expert knowledge into specialized AI at scale. The AI landscape has gone through incredible changes between 2015, when Snorkel started as a research project in the Stanford AI Lab, to the generative AI breakthroughs of today. But one thing has remained constant : the data you use to build AI is the key to achieving differentiation, high performance, and production-ready systems. We work with some of the world’s largest organizations to empower scientists, engineers, financial experts, product creators, journalists, and more to build custom AI with their data faster than ever before. Excited to help us redefine how AI is built? Apply to be the newest Snorkeler!

About the role

In this role, you will lead the team responsible for Snorkel’s data development pipelines, ensuring high quality and on-time delivery of complex datasets for customers at the frontier of GenAI. You\'ll be a technical leader who partners closely with cross-functional teams— including research, engineering, and GTM to redefine how data powering frontier AI models is delivered using Snorkel’s state-of-the-art platform and research. You will drive critical outcomes in a fast-paced environment, working directly with our customers to ensure delivery success. In this founding role, you’ll serve as a key business leader responsible for delivering DaaS customer value, driving operational rigor, people leadership, and strategic decision making for the business.

  • Strong leadership and maturity to build (attract, hire, retain) and scale a world-class organization.
  • Exceptional communication skills, with the ability to translate complex ideas into clear, compelling narratives—written, verbal, and visual
  • Excellent cross-functional collaboration skills, especially in working with both technical and non-technical stakeholders to turn ambiguous problems into scalable solutions; proven success influencingcross-functional teams and external stakeholders.
  • Strong business acumen—assessing risks, opportunities, and trade-offs to support short-term needs and long-term goals.
  • Bias to action and agility – you move quickly and thrive in a fast-paced environment. No job is beneath you and you lead from the front.

  • Bonus : experience managing customer-facing / field teams
