- Experience supporting auditability through access reviews, user activity monitoring, administrative action tracking, and related operational controls.
- Familiarity with data retention concepts and the administrative controls needed to support retention requirements.
- Experience supporting large-scale Snowflake environments with very large data sets, including tables containing hundreds of billions to trillions of rows.
- Experience monitoring, troubleshooting, and supporting performance management for queries, pipelines, jobs, and operational processes that depend on very large Snowflake tables.
- Strong SQL skills and the ability to troubleshoot Snowflake operational, access, or configuration issues.
- Experience with account monitoring, query history, billing or consumption oversight, and usage governance.
- Ability to work cross-functionally with security, IAM, infrastructure, data engineering, analytics, and application teams.
