You don’t just use tools; you possess an innate curiosity, treating AI as a high-trust collaborator that is core to how you solve problems and accelerate your impact. We look for low-ego individuals who thrive in dynamic and fast-moving environments and move with an experimental mindset — who rapidly test emerging capabilities to discover simpler, more powerful ways to deliver results. At Snowflake, your role isn't just to execute a function, but to help redefine the future of how work gets done. People Partner – Product & Engineering Snowflake is seeking a People Partner to support our Product and Engineering organizations. In this role, you will be a trusted, hands-on advisor to people managers and their teams across the full range of people topics, including talent, performance, engagement, org design and change management.

We are looking for a People Partner who is curious about how technical teams work, comfortable with hard conversations, and excited about the impact of AI on both the business and Snowflakes around the world.

- Partner on performance review and calibration cycles for your client groups, bringing data and a point of view to drive consistent, differentiated outcomes
- Support core talent processes including promotions, compensation cycles, succession planning, and retention of top talent
- Build manager capability through coaching and targeted development, helping first- and second-line leaders grow
- Spot what's working and what's not across engagement, attrition, and performance, and turn insights into action
- Be the steady hand on complex employee situations, partnering with Employee Relations when it counts
- Help teams scale, reorganize, and evolve without losing momentum
- Use data, Workday reporting, and AI tools to diagnose issues, track outcomes, and scale your impact
- Partner with COEs (Talent, Total Rewards, Employee Relations, Recruiting) to deliver programs tailored to technical teams

## WHAT YOU BRING:

- 7+ years of HR/People experience, including as a people partner or generalist

- Hands-on experience advising managers through performance challenges, review cycles, and calibrations
- Strong coaching skills, with the ability to help managers have direct, empathetic conversations

- Ability to build credibility quickly with technical managers and push back constructively
- Curiosity and applied interest in AI and how it can evolve the people partner role
