Anvilogic is a Palo Alto-based AI cybersecurity startup founded in 2019 by security veterans and data scientists from Fortune 500 companies. The company has raised $45M in Series C funding (April 2024) and is backed by top-tier VC firms. Anvilogic's AI-powered Multi-Data Platform SIEM helps advanced security teams perform threat detection and hunting across hybrid, multi-cloud, and security data lakes without centralizing data or replacing existing tools.
As a Senior Data Operations Engineer, you will be responsible for the health, performance, and cost optimization of Snowflake accounts that Anvilogic manages on behalf of customers.

- Participate in on-call rotation and incident response
- Automate operational work using Python and Terraform
