Principal Financial Analyst - Ecommerce & SQL Finance

Principal-level role — one of the most senior individual contributor tracks in finance. With 7–10+ years required, candidates should be well past mid-level FP&A and operating as a de facto subject matter expert. The title signals above-market positioning compared to a typical Senior Financial Analyst, and compensation should reflect that (Principal finance roles in ecommerce commonly range $130K–$180K+ in the US, though Spreetail does not publish a range).

• Direct exposure to C-suite and senior merchandising leadership — rare for individual contributors, and highly valuable for future Director-level moves.
• Heavy SQL/Snowflake emphasis develops a genuinely scarce skill set: finance professionals who can self-serve complex data engineering tasks command significant premiums in the market.
• PVM modeling expertise is in demand across retail, CPG, and ecommerce — building this at scale at a "fastest-growing ecommerce company" is strong résumé material.
• Autonomous, greenfield work: you're defining the analytical approach, not following templates — ideal for someone who wants to build a portfolio of original frameworks.

• No salary range is published — push for transparency during the screening call.
• Spreetail is a growth-stage private company; benefits and stability differ from public enterprises or FAANG.
• The role is US-state-restricted, limiting future geographic mobility while employed.

Overall, this is a strong opportunity for a data-fluent finance professional seeking autonomy, stakeholder visibility, and a genuinely technical finance role in a fast-scaling ecommerce environment.

Spreetail is seeking a Principal Financial Analyst, Merchandising Finance to serve as a critical analytical partner to our Merchandising and Category leadership teams, shaping how we think about pricing, promotions, assortment, and category profitability. This is a highly analytical, SQL-intensive role built for someone who thrives on getting hands-on with complex data — you'll independently query and model large-scale datasets in Snowflake, build sophisticated PVM analyses, and turn dense financial detail into clear, decisive recommendations that influence real commercial outcomes.

You’ll own the financial rigor behind new SKU and assortment launches, evaluate marketing spend and incrementality, and bring operational finance discipline to a fast-moving ecommerce environment.
