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. About the role The App Runtime team is building a platform that lets every Snowflake user go from an idea to a live, deployed web application (Node.js first) in minutes. We own the end-to-end experience of building and running apps, from Cortex AI-assisted development to deployment in a secure, scalable infrastructure. Apps built on the platform inherit Snowflake's security, governance, lineage, and access controls by default. See Deploy Faster with Snowflake Apps . As a Staff/Principal Engineer, you will shape the product and its architecture. It’s a high leverage role - you will lead a team to scale and harden an early-stage, public-preview product. Your decisions will have a long-lasting impact on the future of Snowflake as an app platform. This role requires a unique combination of deep hands-on expertise in scalability, performance and security, great product instincts, customer obsession and the organizational influence to drive cross-team programs. Responsibilities Own the roadmap and technical decisions to evolve the public-preview platform into a production-grade one, adding features like horizontal scaling, cost efficiency via suspend/resume, support for stacks beyond Node.js, and stronger access and data-governance controls Stay deeply hands-on by authoring specs

Secure Every Identity, from AI to Human Identity is the key to unlocking the potential of AI. Okta secures AI by building the trusted, neutral infrastructure that enables organizations to safely embrace this new era. This work requires a relentless drive to solve complex challenges with real-world stakes. We are looking for builders and owners who operate with speed and urgency and execute with excellence. This is an opportunity to do career-defining work. We're all in on this mission. If you are too, let's talk. Get to know the team The Developer Platform team at Auth0 (an Okta company) owns the platform that developers build identity on. Increasingly they build alongside AI agents, and that raises the bar on everything underneath: interfaces have to hold up whether a person or an agent is calling them, and the systems behind them have to stay reliable and coherent as usage grows. We move fast, we own problems end to end, and we care deeply about the platform we put in front of the developers and agents who depend on it. The opportunity We're hiring a Principal Engineer (P5) to serve as the technical leader and compass for the Developer Platform team. You'll work across the breadth of the platform, tackling the highly complex, vaguely specified problems that span it and turning them into clear technical direction the team can execute against, without day-to-day oversight. Above all, you'll own how the platform is architected to scale: the distributed systems behind it, the reliability and consistency guarantees developers depend on, and the coherence that keeps it easy to build on as usage grows. You'll champion the team's technical execution, raise the engineering bar, mentor the people around you, and partner with tech leads across teams to keep the wider platform aligned. You'll have real influence over how our platform holds up in a world where developers and agents are both first-class consumers. What you'll be doing Own the platform architecture: Set the tech

This is an opportunity to do career-defining work. We're all in on this mission. If you are too, let's talk. The Team The Auth0 Platform Tools team owns the incident management tooling, Slack-based tooling, StatusPage, and local development environments that Auth0 engineers rely on every day. That includes incident.io and the services we have built around it, Statuspage, custom Slack bot applications that automate our incident response and engineering operations workflows, the customer-facing web application behind status.auth0.com, Vivaldi, and Tilt - the tools engineers use to run Auth0 locally. We are seeking an engineer to help build new features across all of these tools. Our stack is primarily TypeScript and Node.js, with a React and Next.js front end, backed by Postgres and Redis, and deployed on Kubernetes on AWS. A significant portion of our incident and engineering operations automation is built on Tines, a no-code automation platform. Prior no-code experience is welcome, but we expect you to learn Tines here and become effective with it. Current initiatives include extending our incident tooling to meet FedRAMP requirements, taking full ownership of the status page, and improving how we communicate incident status to customers. There is real room to improve along the way, from test coverage to resilience to inherited technical debt. We build for two audiences: Auth0 engineers, who depend on our tooling every day, and Auth0's customers, who rely on the status page during incidents.
