Senior Pricing Analyst

Primary Function of Position
We are seeking an experienced pricing analyst to serve as the senior analytical resource for pricing across Intuitive's full portfolio, spanning capital systems, instruments and accessories, service, and digital offerings, working at the intersection of Sales, Sales Operations, and Finance.
Pricing analytics is where the team's strategic position is built: quantifying how price, portfolio mix, and acquisition structure move margin, adoption, and customer economics. This role produces forward-looking analysis that shapes pricing structure before it is requested, rather than responding to individual quote requests.
The Senior Analyst supports business units bringing pricing proposals to the price council and other governing bodies, supplying the proposal analytics and presentation materials those decisions rest on while the business units own the recommendations themselves. Working across Sales, Sales Operations, Contracts, Financial Planning, and Product Marketing, this role converts transaction, utilization, and contract data into insight that senior commercial and finance leaders act on.
This position reports to the Director of Pricing and Customer Finance and is based in Atlanta, GA or Sunnyvale, CA.

Maintain the analytical standards and templates used in council submissions, and track approved decisions through to realized impact.
