• Build dashboards to help Engineering and Product Managers monitor performance and availability of our system.
• Answer questions from the executive team for board reporting, publications, and industry reports.
• Think creatively to find optimal solutions to our complex, often unstructured problems.

OUR IDEAL CANDIDATE WILL HAVE:

• BS/MS in quantitative discipline (Math, Statistics, Operations Research, Economics, Engineering, or CS)
• Expert-level experience working with SQL and relational data (8+ years on a regular basis).
• 8+ years of experience with Python, including scikit-learn, numpy, and pandas.
• Experience working with large-scale machine generated data (e.g., log, application, or customer-usage data).
• Hands-on experience with MPP databases, such as Snowflake, Redshift, BigQuery, Vertica, etc. 
• Ability to clearly present learnings to business leaders and technical stakeholders. 
• The ability to thrive in a dynamic environment. That means being flexible and willing to jump in and do whatever it takes to be successful.
• Prior experience on data engineering products like ingestion, connectors is a plus

Snowflake is growing fast, and we’re scaling our team to help enable and accelerate our growth. We are looking for people who share our values, challenge ordinary thinking, and push the pace of innovation while building a future for themselves and Snowflake.
