Senior Manager, Procurement & Strategic Sourcing

About this role

From Fivetran’s founding until now, our mission has remained the same: to make access to data as simple and reliable as electricity. With Fivetran, customer data arrives in their warehouses, canonical and ready to query, with no engineering or maintenance required. We’re proud that more organizations continue to leverage our technology every day to become truly data-driven.

About the Role

Fivetran and dbt Labs are bringing together two industry-leading companies with a shared mission: helping organizations unlock the full value of their data. Together, we’re delivering the data infrastructure layer that helps organizations move, transform, and trust their data — from the moment data moves, through every transformation, to the context teams and AI systems rely on. Fivetran helps organizations automate data movement across the systems, clouds, engines, and tools they rely on. dbt Labs pioneered analytics engineering, helping teams transform data into reliable, governed insights. Together, we support thousands of organizations as they build a trusted foundation for analytics, AI, and better business decisions. As we bring our teams and technology together, we’re building on the strengths of both companies while continuing to deliver the products and experiences our customers know and trust. It’s an exciting time to join us: we’re creating a company with the scale, talent, and technology to help more organizations put their data to work with greater speed, confidence, and impact. During this transition period, you may see references to both Fivetran and dbt Labs throughout our recruiting process as we integrate our teams, systems, and career sites.

We're looking for a Senior Manager of Strategic Sourcing to lead high-impact procurement and vendor negotiations across the organization at a pivotal moment: the integration of Fivetran and dbt, where identifying technology synergies and driving cost efficiency is mission-critical.

In this role, you'll own the full sourcing lifecycle for deals ranging from $50K to $500K+, spanning categories including technology/SaaS, marketing, and contingent workforce. You'll build and lead vendor relationships, drive renewals, and partner with Finance, Legal, and business stakeholders to ensure Fivetran gets maximum value from every vendor dollar spent. This is a high-visibility, high-impact role for someone who thrives in a fast-moving environment and loves finding the leverage in every deal.

This is a full-time position based out of our Oakland (Bay Area) office. Our hybrid work model offers a blend of remote flexibility and in-person collaboration, including two days in the office each week to connect and build as a team.
