About the Role
We are seeking a Senior Director of Corporate Strategy to define and drive the company's long-term vision, growth priorities, and strategic roadmap. This is a senior leadership role that partners directly with the executive team and the board on the highest-stakes decisions facing the business - and builds the strategy function that supports them.
You will own strategy at the intersection of product, data science, hardware, finance, and go-to-market, translating complex market, technology, and consumer dynamics into clear strategic choices and leading the cross-functional work to act on them.
The ideal candidate brings deep experience from high-growth, product-led technology companies, a strong track record of influencing executives and boards, and the ability to lead both the strategic thinking and the people who execute it in a fast-moving environment.
This role reports to the SVP of Strategy and Program Management Office and leads a corporate strategy team.
This is a hybrid position based in San Francisco requiring 3 days per week in the office.
