At Snowflake, we are powering the era of the agentic enterprise. To usher in this new era, we seek AI-native thinkers across every function who are energized by the opportunity to reinvent how they work. 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. At Snowflake, your role isn't just to execute a function, but to help redefine the future of how work gets done.
We’re at the forefront of the data revolution, committed to building the world’s greatest data and applications platform. Our ‘get it done’ culture allows everyone at Snowflake to have an equal opportunity to innovate on new ideas, create work with a lasting impact, and excel in a culture of collaboration.
We're looking for a talented and motivated Software Engineer to join our AI Services team, specializing in the scalability, availability and resilience of LLMs, NLP, and AI tools. In this role, you will have the opportunity to leverage your expertise to contribute to the development and productization of platforms for cutting-edge AI projects (e.g. multi-modal LLMs) that are or will be integrated into the Snowflake platform making a significant impact on the company’s portfolio.
Some of the projects we are currently working on include full deployment automation of our inference stack while maintaining quality gates supporting Snowflake’s global scale, and a new architecture for multi-modal inference to support the growing demand for AI capabilities.
Your journey as a Software Engineer
Working in our team you will:
- Think creatively to find optimal solutions to our complex, often ambiguous problems
- Participate in all stages of developing and serving new platforms for various AI solutions and improving existing Snowflake’s functionalities in the AI domain
- Work closely with other research, engineering, and business teams to understand and shape the short and long-term product development strategy
- Serve as a mentor to less experienced engineers, researchers, and product managers
Ideal candidate
- 3+ years of experience writing production-quality scalable code using backend languages (preferred Go, Python, Java)
- BSc in a technical field (AI/ML, CS, DS, Physics, Math, etc), MSc/PhD is a plus
- Professional level in building SDKs / web service APIs (REST/ gRPC)
- Experience with software engineering best practices (programming, testing, version control, CI/CD, docker/Kubernetes, Jenkins, agile development, etc)
- High levels of curiosity and eager enthusiasm for open-ended problems. Experience and interest in problem formulation based on relatively abstract information
- Ability to articulate results and complex concepts to leadership
- Must be able to produce solutions independently in an organized manner, work in a team, and also be able to lead a team when required
- Hands-on experience in the MLOps field (e.g., deploying ML models) will be a strong asset.
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.
