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.

  • Immerse yourself in the ever-evolving industry, maintaining a deep understanding of competitive and complementary technologies and vendors and how to position Snowflake in relation to them.

  • Collaborate with Product Management, Engineering, and Marketing to continuously improve Snowflake’s products and marketing

 
ON DAY ONE WE WILL EXPECT YOU TO HAVE:
  • 7-8 years of industry experience with a minimum of 5 years within a pre-sales environment

  • Outstanding presenting skills to both technical and executive audiences, whether impromptu on a whiteboard or using presentations and demos.

  • Broad range of experience within large-scale Database and/or Data Warehouse technology, ETL, analytics and cloud technologies. For example, Data Lake, Data Mesh, Data Fabric

  • Hands-on expertise with SQL,SQL analytics, and Python.

  • Ability to connect a customer’s specific business problems and Snowflake’s solutions

  • Ability to do deep discovery of customer’s architecture framework and connect those with Snowflake Data Architecture.

  • University degree in computer science, engineering, mathematics or related fields, or equivalent experience preferred. Masters in DataScience or Business Administration is a plus.

  • Experience with GSIs (EY, Deloitte, Accenture, etc), would be beneficial, but not required

  • Expect approximately 30% travel

Every Snowflake employee is expected to follow the company’s confidentiality and security standards for handling sensitive data.
