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.

On the commercial side, you will work closely with the account team to drive growth for your assigned customers’ use cases by engaging with stakeholders and developing actionable plans.

- Lead customers through Well-Architected Framework outcomes, including security hardening (MFA, SSO/SAML, RBAC), DR/BCP readiness, AI observability and alerting design, platform modernization, and performance and cost optimization
- Leverage AI tools to develop scalable playbooks, skills, and automation that enable the broader CX organization to deliver technical outcomes faster and more consistently
- Willingness to travel regionally to customer locations, deliver on-site solutions, and build strong customer relationships
Our Ideal Senior Technical Account Manager will have:
- B.S. or M.S degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Engineering, or equivalent practical experience
