Infrastructure Engineer, Observe by Snowflake

Snowflake Snowflake · Data AI · CA-Menlo Park, United States · Engineering

This role is for an Infrastructure Engineer at Snowflake, focusing on building and operating the cloud infrastructure for an AI-powered observability platform. The role involves designing, scaling, and maintaining AWS infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, and ensuring system reliability and security. While the platform is AI-powered, the core responsibilities of this role are in infrastructure engineering and SRE, not direct AI/ML model development.

What you'd actually do

  1. Design, build, and operate scalable cloud infrastructure in AWS supporting a high-scale observability platform.
  2. Improve system reliability, performance, and operational visibility across development and production environments.
  3. Develop and maintain CI/CD pipelines and internal tooling to improve developer productivity and deployment safety.
  4. Identify and mitigate security risks, and help maintain internal security standards and compliance requirements.
