Responsibilities

We are hiring a Senior Software Engineer to join the Warehouse UX pod at Snowflake. This team owns critical warehouse capabilities spanning features, billing, and usability across the warehouse experience. Warehouses are one of the most mission-critical parts of Snowflake’s platform and a major revenue driver for the company, making this an opportunity to work on high-impact systems at significant scale.
Despite the UX pod name, this is not a front-end role. This team builds backend distributed systems that power warehouse behavior, customer-facing warehouse capabilities, metering and billing-related functionality, and the reliability and usability of core warehouse workflows.
This role is best suited for an engineer with 4 to 7 years of experience who can independently drive medium-sized projects end to end, contribute effectively to larger cross-team efforts, and bring strong technical judgment to systems that matter deeply to customers and the business.
Design, build, test, deploy, and operate backend software and distributed systems that power Snowflake Warehouses.
Own medium-sized engineering projects independently from design through delivery, and contribute to larger initiatives across the warehouse organization.
Build and evolve capabilities related to warehouse features, billing, and usability.
Improve the reliability, scalability, performance, and operational health of warehouse systems in production.
Work across the full software lifecycle, including technical design, implementation, testing, rollout, on-call participation, issue triage, and follow-through on production improvements.
Partner closely with engineers, product managers, and adjacent teams to deliver durable solutions to customer and business problems.
Make thoughtful tradeoffs between speed, quality, maintainability, and long-term architectural health.
Use strong debugging and systems thinking to resolve complex production issues and improve service behavior over time.
Raise the bar through design reviews, code reviews, operational rigor, and clear technical communication.
