To usher in this new era, we seek AI-native thinkers across every function who are energized by the opportunity to reinvent how they work. 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. We’re at the forefront of the data revolution, committed to building the world’s greatest data and applications platform. Snowflake is striving to become the cloud data platform of choice for everyone who needs affordable, reliable, scalable and elastic data management. Armed with great technical talent, our expanding product offering is designed for the cloud and automatically handles infrastructure, optimization, availability, data protection, and more so our users can focus on using their data, not managing it. And we’re doing this across all the major cloud providers, breaking new ground in what it means to be multi-cloud and cloud agnostic. We are looking to hire an experienced Senior Technical Program Manager who can be part of a world-class team that builds Snowflake’s product and cloud platform. This role is a unique opportunity to make a significant impact by building a flexible, large scale, high-performance, and resilient platform for Snowlake features and services. Be part of the vision to create the best data cloud platform.

(Snowflake happens to have a nice data platform to use :-) A SENIOR TECHNICAL PROGRAM MANAGER AT SNOWFLAKE IS EXPECTED TO HAVE: - 5+ years of demonstrated industry experience and expertise leading medium to large complex engineering projects in current cloud technologies - Ability to thrive and succeed in a dynamic environment not slowed down by ambiguity or competing priorities - Experience working cross functionally with engineering, product management, and other functions involved in the product life cycle - Strong program management skills with technical and business acumen - Effective verbal and written communication and presentation skills, with the ability to interact with technical and non-technical groups - Excellent analytical, problem-solving, consultation and organizational skills - BS/MS/PhD degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related fields or equivalent practical experience (e.g. familiarity with SQL, Python, Data) Every Snowflake employee is expected to follow the company’s confidentiality and security standards for handling sensitive data. Snowflake employees must abide by the company’s data security plan as an essential part of their duties. It is every employee's duty to keep customer information secure and confidential. Snowflake is growing fast, and we’re scaling our team to help enable and accelerate our growth. We are looking for people who share our values, challenge ordinary thinking, and push the pace of innovation while building a future for themselves and Snowflake. How do you want to make your impact?
