You will present Snowflake's technology and vision to executives and technical teams at prospects and customers.

You'll develop technical champions within accounts to accelerate deals and ensure technical alignment.
Key responsibilities include staying at the cutting edge of Snowflake technology, confidently presenting roadmap features, maintaining deep competitive and complementary technology knowledge, and collaborating with Product Management, Engineering, and Marketing to improve products and positioning. You'll represent Snowflake at industry and customer events, work with ecosystem and implementation partners on joint architectures, and proactively contribute to account and territory planning.
Required qualifications include solution engineering or solution architect experience in a SaaS environment or relevant industry experience (analytics, data science, data engineering). You must have outstanding presentation skills for both technical and executive audiences, understanding of data architecture and cloud technology, hands-on SQL experience, and the ability to solve customer-specific business problems. Strong customer-facing communication skills—written and verbal—are essential.
