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 Software Engineer for our SCII (Secret, Cryptographic and Identity Infrastructure) team. SCII builds the foundational security systems that empower every Snowflake engineer to deliver the most secure Data Cloud to our customers — solving the hardest security problems at scale so the rest of the organization doesn't have to. SCII also owns the area of End-to-end encryption (E2EE), to secure customer data that prevents third parties from reading the data while at-rest or in transit to and from Snowflake and to minimize the attack surface.
The SCII team sits at the intersection of security, customer and infrastructure — a rare vantage point where the work you do directly shapes how thousands of Snowflake engineers build and ship, as well as where you can directly impact the encryption and key management for our customers. You won't be maintaining someone else's security layer; you'll be defining it. Whether it's rethinking how secrets are managed at enterprise scale, evolving service identity for a hyper-growth multi-cloud platform, or making authorization invisible and reliable, the problems are genuinely hard and the impact is company-wide.
This is a team that values craft, curiosity, and collaboration. You'll work alongside engineers who care deeply about the foundations they build and who take pride in making complex security invisible to the developers who depend on it. If you want a role where your technical decisions matter and your growth is tied directly to the scale of the platform you're protecting, this is it.
Every Snowflake employee is expected to follow the company’s confidentiality and security standards for handling sensitive data. Snowflake employees must abide by the company’s data security plan as an essential part of their duties. It is every employee’s duty to keep customer information secure and confidential.
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.
