About the role

Salesforce seeks a Principal Researcher to distill complex AI and data platform problems into actionable insights, partnering with product, design, and engineering to shape strategy rooted in data and customer value. The role requires 10+ years of research in tech contexts, advanced qualitative and quantitative methods, and a proven ability to influence product direction while collaborating across teams. You will help drive enterprise software innovation at scale.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
