64 Chewy Engineers Jobs Hiring Near You

Job Description:
At Chewy, it is our mission to become the most trusted and convenient online destination for pet parents and our partners vets and service providers alike. Our success is measured by the happiness of the people and pets we serve, not simply by the amount of pet supplies we deliver. That's why we continue to think of outside-the-Chewy-box ways to delight, surprise, and thank our loyal pet lovers!
Our Opportunity:
Chewy is seeking a Director, Finance - Ads and Discovery to lead finance support for Chewy's Ad Network (i.e. Chewy Ads) as well as the Search and Discovery teams. This is a highly visible role responsible for shaping how we invest, measure success, and drive accountability across two critical growth areas of the business. This role will partner directly with the VP of Chewy Ads and Search and Discovery to define the financial targets, investment strategy, operating mechanisms, and performance metrics required to implement the long-term vision. In the Ads organization, this role will lead finance for the transformation of Chewy Ads from a highly successful onsite and offsite retail advertising business into a full-fledged pet-centered Retail Media Network. This requires a finance leader with direct experience in digital advertising, retail media, or ads monetization - including a strong understanding of the business of buying and selling ads, pricing, advertiser return on investment, campaign performance, inventory monetization, and the tradeoffs involved in scaling an advertising business.
To be successful in this role, the ideal candidate must be able to earn trust across product, engineering, finance, commercial and accounting partners using data to inform their recommendations and analyses. The candidate will be organized, detailed orientated, and an auditor of our operations through a financial lens. They will be an owner, raising their hand to investigate risks/opportunities especially when ownership is ambiguous or unclear.
Candidates must bring strong analytical and financial modeling leadership in a big data environment, with direct exposure to advertising, retail media, digital monetization, or paid media business models. They should understand how advertising businesses grow, how investment decisions are made, and how performance is measured across revenue, margin, advertiser outcomes, customer experience, and long-term enterprise value. They show a drive to understand operational metrics and can clearly express their point of view to executives for long-term business decisions.
A strong fit for this role will demonstrate outstanding communication skills, both written and verbal. They will work at depth and think broadly about business direction and investments. This role must balance many competing priorities simultaneously, improve and transform processes and display strong leadership and development skills both with direct reports and across the broader organization.
