At Snowflake, your role isn't just to execute a function, but to help redefine the future of how work gets done.

Deliver features requiring close coordination with several partner teams.
Be a strong contributor to the product vision and drive team planning.
Pinpoint problems, instrument relevant components as needed, and ultimately implement solutions.
Mentor and coach junior team members.
Our ideal Senior Software Engineer will have:
B.S. or M.S degree in CS, MIS, or equivalent discipline
6+ years experience hands-on software engineering experience

Excellent debugging and troubleshooting skills, especially in a cloud environment.
Demonstrated technical leadership experience, such as being an architect or tech lead for high-impact projects.
Great communication skills, both verbal and written and an interest in working with a diverse set of peers and external developers.
Genuine enjoyment of the art of building great software, and a love of learning new things.
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.
