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 are hiring a Principal Technical Architect for our Services Delivery team. This is one of the most senior technical roles in the SD organization. You will define how we deliver at scale, set the architectural standards that our entire practice builds on, and engage with our most strategic customers at the highest levels of technical complexity. Your work will shape both what we build for customers and how we grow as a SD organization.
This is a role for someone who wants to build something, not just deliver into it. As a Principal Technical Architect, you will have a direct line from your work to how our entire SD practice thinks, delivers, and grows. You will define the standards others follow, engage with the hardest problems our most sophisticated customers bring to us, and have a genuine voice in how Snowflake's product evolves based on what you see in the field.
The role combines the intellectual depth of principal-level architecture work with the organizational impact of building a practice at scale. If you are at a point in your career where individual delivery is no longer enough and you want your influence to operate at the level of the entire PS organization and beyond, this is the role for you.
How do you want to make your impact?
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.

It is structured hybrid. Most roles are tied to a specific office and expect roughly three days a week on-site, and around three-quarters of open jobs are office-anchored. A minority of roles are explicitly tagged remote, but there is no company-wide remote policy, so eligibility is decided role by role.
Roles are location-specific and spread across more than 25 countries, including the US, UK, Australia, India, Germany, Poland, Canada, Japan, France, and Singapore. The heaviest concentration of jobs sits in US hubs such as Menlo Park and Bellevue, plus London. Positions are city- or country-locked rather than work-from-anywhere.
Snowflake offers a 401(k) and a Roth 401(k) option, but it does not provide an employer match. This is worth factoring into total compensation, since the package leans heavily on equity and bonus rather than retirement matching.
Compensation is geography-based and certified by Fair Pay Workplace, an external pay-equity auditor. Cash is paired with substantial equity through new-hire grants, an Employee Stock Purchase Plan, and a quarterly bonus or commission program, with RSUs vesting over four years.
Highlights include unlimited PTO, generous parental leave (26 weeks maternity, 12 weeks paternity) with adoption and fertility support, an HSA with employer contribution, on-demand mental health and wellness programs, and ergonomic work-from-home equipment provided globally.
It suits data and AI engineers, data scientists, and product people who want to work across the full data lifecycle at large scale and value equity-heavy pay. Sales roles are numerous and well-compensated, though reviewers there report more pressure and crunch than in engineering.
