Cloud Partner Solutions Engineer (aws / Azure / Google Cloud)

Snowflake Snowflake · Data AI · USA, United States · Remote · Solution Engineering

This role focuses on driving co-sell objectives with Cloud Service Provider (CSP) partners by supporting customer success through use case wins, product integration launches, field enablement, and joint marketing. The Cloud Partner Solutions Engineer will own hyperscaler partnerships, combining technical credibility with business acumen to achieve measurable outcomes. Key responsibilities include developing joint GTM strategies, building integrated solutions, leading joint planning, driving co-sell execution in top accounts, delivering packaged POCs and workshops (including Cortex AI + cloud LLM services), and enabling partner field teams. The role requires technical depth in areas like Cortex AI, Iceberg, and cross-cloud architectures, enabling solutions integrating Snowflake with AWS, Azure, and GCP AI and data services.

What you'd actually do

  1. Own the overall joint GTM strategy and execution plan for your assigned cloud partner(s), aligning Snowflake's field priorities with cloud partner co-sell programs and market initiatives.
  2. Build and manage a portfolio of cloud partner product integrations and joint solutions — from business case through launch — ensuring each delivers measurable field and customer value.
  3. Drive joint account planning with field AEs and cloud Alliances teams against top-account lists, establishing 18+ month account strategies that integrate Snowflake and cloud partner resources.
  4. Lead and manage the full co-sell lifecycle — from opportunity identification and qualification through technical win and production deployment — with clear milestone ownership and stakeholder communication throughout.
  5. Deliver packaged POCs and customer workshops built around high-impact co-sell plays — including Open Lakehouse (S3/Iceberg, Fabric OneLake, BigLake), Cortex AI + cloud LLM services (Anthropic/Cortex, Azure OpenAI, Vertex AI), and Data Engineering pipelines.
