Job Overview
The opportunity
Help build the next generation of how SharkNinja operates.
Join THE FIN, SharkNinja's core internal transformation team, where we're building new financial and operational capabilities using data, automation, software, and AI. Our team works directly with the business to solve real problems, simplify complex processes, and create tools that make SharkNinja faster, smarter, and more effective.
We're looking for an early-career builder who is curious, technically capable, and excited to learn by doing. You'll work alongside experienced engineers and business partners to turn ideas into practical solutions, gaining hands-on experience with enterprise data, applications, automation, and emerging AI technologies.

Success means producing accurate, reliable work, learning quickly, and contributing to solutions that improve how SharkNinja operates.
