About Salesforce

Salesforce is the #1 AI CRM, where humans with agents drive customer success together. Here, ambition meets action. Tech meets trust. And innovation isn’t a buzzword — it’s a way of life. The world of work as we know it is changing and we're looking for Trailblazers who are passionate about bettering business and the world through AI, driving innovation, and keeping Salesforce's core values at the heart of it all.

Ready to level-up your career at the company leading workforce transformation in the agentic era? You’re in the right place! Agentforce is the future of AI, and you are the future of Salesforce.

The Global Incentive Compensation (GIC) team at Salesforce is a global leader for sales compensation in the technology industry. We manage the sales compensation for all Salesforce, end-to-end - from designing the sales compensation plan to enable the company’s go‑to‑market strategy to administering the payment so that our sales teams get paid on time.

Within GIC, the Data Strategy team owns the foundational data architecture, data modeling, and secure data‑sharing pipelines that power our global operational ecosystem (supporting $3B+ in annual commissions). We are hiring a Senior Technical Data Analyst to act as a key hands‑on developer and business translator.

This is a highly visible, active role. We are looking for an analyst who goes beyond simply executing transactional queries to designing and transforming data in our Snowflake Gold and Reporting database layers. You will serve as the ultimate operational bridge: partnering deeply with upstream business teams (Decision Analytics and Reporting) to run technical discovery, clarify business requirements, and then rolling up your sleeves to write production‑grade SQL code to deliver clean, curated, and highly aggregated datasets to support complex reporting and high‑priority, time‑sensitive ad‑hoc business needs.

Crucially, you are a natural "data detective." When the business requires data from unfamiliar or undocumented upstream systems, you will proactively hunt down the external business owners, ask the right investigative questions to decode their data structures, and document the requirements. You will build temporary technical workarounds in our Snowflake environment to keep the business agile, while carefully documenting the underlying technical gaps so they can be prioritized for permanent, long‑term BT automation.

• Gold & Reporting Layer Development: Actively develop, model, and optimize highly aggregated datasets, schemas, and tables in GIC's Snowflake Gold and Reporting layers. Transform cleaned, raw data sources into production‑ready semantic models designed specifically to fuel BI tools and handle complex, high-priority ad‑hoc business requests.
• Requirements Translation & Technical Discovery: Partner with business analysts in Reporting and Decision Analytics to run upfront discovery on new requests. Dissect vague requests, clarify and document clear business logic, and verify data feasibility in Snowflake before starting SQL development.
• Proactive Data Stewardship & Sourcing: Untangle unfamiliar, complex, or undocumented upstream data sources across the enterprise. Proactively hunt down the external business owners, ask the right investigative questions to decode their data structures, and establish GIC's technical stewardship over these newly discovered sources.
• Agile Data Curation & Gap Mitigation: Write intermediate SQL views and temporary workarounds in Snowflake to unblock urgent business…
