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!
The Role
We are seeking a Senior Product Manager to own the core platform that powers all data operations across our ecosystem. This platform enables experts to efficiently produce high-quality data, supports internal operations at scale, and provides reliable APIs and SDKs for customers.
In this role, you will own the end-to-end experience of our data platform — from expert tooling and workflow orchestration, to identity and access management, data ingestion, versioning, and delivery. You will define platform strategy, set the roadmap, and partner closely with Engineering, Research, and Operations to build scalable, reliable systems that support high-throughput, high-quality data production.
This is a highly cross-functional, technically deep IC role with broad surface area and significant impact. You will lead initiatives spanning multiple teams, balancing near-term execution with long-term platform evolution.
What You’ll Do
- Own the product vision, strategy, and roadmap for the core platform supporting expert contributors, internal operations, and customers.
- Define and deliver expert tooling, workflow orchestration systems, and internal ops controls that improve productivity, quality, and scalability.
- Lead platform initiatives across data ingestion, storage, versioning, permissions/IAM, and system reliability.
- Partner deeply with Engineering to make informed tradeoffs across APIs, data models, system architecture, and platform abstractions.
- Collaborate with Research and Operations to ensure platform capabilities support evolving RLHF methodologies and operational needs.
- Build and evolve APIs and SDKs that enable customers to seamlessly access the platform capabilities
- Drive metrics across throughput, cycle time, quality, cost efficiency, platform adoption, and reliability.
- Identify platform bottlenecks and lead cross-team efforts to improve performance, scalability, and experts experience.
- Balance short-term delivery with long-term platform investments to support future growth.
Minimum Qualifications
- 5–7 years of experience as a Product Manager, with ownership of complex, cross-functional product areas.
- Experience building internal tools, ops platforms, or data platforms at scale.
- Strong technical fluency, with comfort discussing APIs, data models, system design, and infrastructure tradeoffs with engineering teams.
- Proven ability to own end-to-end product experiences across multiple user personas.
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with a track record of metrics-driven decision making.
- Excellent collaboration skills and experience partnering closely with Engineering, Research, and Operations teams.
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience building platforms that support human-in-the-loop or data production workflows.
- Background in data infrastructure, ML platforms, or enterprise SaaS products.
- Experience designing APIs or developer-facing platforms.
- Demonstrated ability to lead large, cross-team initiatives without formal authority.
