Lead and grow our talented team of software engineers, fostering a culture of technical excellence, ownership, and continuous learning.
Drive the roadmap for Cost Intelligence features — including cost allocation, resource budgeting, anomaly detection, and optimization recommendations — in partnership with product management.
Set technical strategy for backend systems, data pipelines, and APIs that surface cost and usage insights to customers at massive scale.
Own delivery end-to-end: from planning and scoping to design reviews, execution, launch, and iteration based on customer feedback.
Partner cross-functionally with other engineering and cross functional teams to ensure smooth integrations and end customer success.
Represent your team in broader technical discussions, contributing to Snowflake engineering-wide initiatives and best practices.
We are looking for candidates with:

Excellent communication skills: able to distill complex technical problems for executive audiences and motivate engineers around a shared vision.
Track record of hiring, growing, and retaining strong engineering talent.
Strong hands-on skills. Can drill deep into complex system designs and implementation.
BS/MS/PhD in Computer Science or related field, or equivalent experience.
