• Observe's data modeling surface — how customers go from raw telemetry to structured, queryable, correlated data — has proven successful and is now at an inflection point, growing rapidly in richness and complexity to serve evolving enterprise needs. Your architectural decisions will shape how this surface scales — serving thousands of teams, supporting new abstraction types, and maintaining coherence as the platform matures. And you'll do it backed by Snowflake's query engine and data platform, with the ownership culture and shipping velocity of a small focused team.
