Principal Software Engineer - Agentic Pipelines

About the job

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.

Principal software engineer - agentic pipelines

Building for ai-enabled data engineers & scientists

Data pipelines are foundational infrastructure — when they're fast, correct, and maintainable, customers build on them with confidence. If you've spent the bulk of your career building large-scale data infrastructure — designing streaming or transformation primitives, reasoning hard about consistency and fault tolerance, and owning the systems that run under millions of customer workloads — this role might be for you. You'll be working on the pipeline layer at Snowflake: the constructs that define how customers move, shape, and maintain data. AI has a real presence in this work — in how customers use these pipelines and in how we think about building them — but the core job is hard data/pipeline infrastructure engineering, and that's what we're hiring for.
