[in] our own words

“I joined LinkedIn two years ago after being recruited on the platform itself, and from the very beginning, I knew this was the right place for me. I started out supporting Product Engineering, helping leaders optimize costs and evaluate investments, and now I’m in a central consolidations role where I build frameworks that scale across R&D. What stands out most is the culture - incredibly supportive, filled with mentorship, and always encouraging learning. Whether it’s team workshops or simply connecting outside of work, the sense of community is real. What excites me most about Finance is the impact we get to make. We’re not just running numbers, we’re shaping strategy, guiding decisions, and growing in a team that values influence and integrity."

Foundations Strategic Finance -
“Over the past 11 years at LinkedIn, I’ve held five different roles, each one teaching me something new and allowing me to grow. What first brought me here was the vision of creating economic opportunity for every member of the global workforce. What’s kept me here is our culture -we dream big, move fast, and know how to have fun along the way. Within Finance, we don’t just set strategy; we drive it forward with clarity and courage. Just as important, we empower people to show up authentically and take ownership of their growth. If you join us, you’ll be part of a team that challenges you to grow while celebrating who you are."
Victor Sanchez
Workplace -
“I started at LinkedIn in 2013 as a Payroll Specialist in India, and today I lead international payroll operations and global projects. My journey has been one of continuous growth - expanding into multiple regions, driving process improvements, and learning to influence at a global scale. What’s made that possible is our culture of trust, inclusivity, and empowerment. Finance at LinkedIn invests in people and provides the support you need to explore new opportunities and build leadership skills. Looking ahead, I’m excited about how technology and AI will reshape Finance - not just simplifying processes but transforming how we collaborate and deliver impact worldwide."
Shweta Kalyanker
Finance Solutions & Controllership -
“I joined LinkedIn over four years ago and today I support our Marketing Solutions business, managing forecasting and performance for multi-billion-dollar products like Video and Events. I’ve grown from being an Associate to now managing a team and leading cross-portfolio initiatives. What’s unique about Finance here is both the culture and the opportunity to innovate. You’ll find mentors who invest in your career, and you’re encouraged to explore side projects that often lead to meaningful impact. Right now, the rapid adoption of AI is transforming our work - from forecasting accuracy to automating insights, freeing us to spend more time shaping strategy and scaling products."
Peter Ayala
Marketplace Strategic Finance -
“Over my 7+ years at LinkedIn, I’ve worked across both GTM and Corporate Finance, each experience broadening my perspective on how our business runs. No two years have felt the same - I’ve managed teams, led through reorgs, and guided decisions at the highest levels. What’s made the difference is the incredible leadership here. They’ve invested in my growth but also encouraged me to take ownership of my career. At LinkedIn, you truly own your journey, and strong leaders help unlock your potential. I’m especially energized about how AI will transform Finance, allowing us to create more value and reshape how we partner across the business."
Jessica Mao
Central Finance -
“I joined LinkedIn a little over a year ago on the Corporate Development team, where we evaluate acquisitions and explore new areas of growth. What drew me here was the culture and the chance to be at the forefront of answering one of the biggest questions today: how will AI impact the future of work? What I love about this team is the pace and the people - incisive, proactive, and supportive. You’re encouraged to dive in, set up coffee chats, and learn across the business. If you’re considering joining, know that you’ll be part of a fast-moving team where your curiosity and drive will open endless opportunities."
