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. As a Principal Engineer on the Data Platform team, you will be a technical anchor — setting direction, solving the hardest engineering problems, and elevating the entire team. You will work at the intersection of systems design, long-term architecture, and real-world engineering execution. In this specific role, you will lead the evolution of our declarative data pipelines, focusing on streaming ingestion and transformations. What You'll Do Drive the technical strategy and architecture for key Data Platform initiatives, focusing heavily on real-time data movement and incremental processing. Lead design reviews and set engineering standards across teams. Identify and resolve high-impact technical challenges and systemic bottlenecks to reduce latency and improve the efficiency of dynamic tables at cloud scale. Mentor and grow senior engineers; raise the engineering bar. Partner closely with product and infrastructure leadership on roadmap and direction. Continuous hands-on technical deliverables in the most critical areas. What We're Looking For 14+ years of software engineering experience with deep expertise in distributed systems. Demonstrated track record of defining and delivering platform-scale technical initiatives. Expert-level knowledge of streaming and/or batch data

Company Overview We are building the next generation of cloud security infrastructure, focusing on advanced Data Exfiltration Protection (DXP) and unified Data Movement Policies (DMP). Our mission is to provide seamless, context-aware security that protects sensitive data without hindering developer velocity. We are looking for a visionary Principal Engineer to lead the technical strategy and architecture for our Data Movement and Perimeter control systems. Role Summary As a Principal Engineer in the Data Protection group, you will be the technical lead for the Data Exfiltration Protection (DXP) and Data Movement Policy (DMP) initiatives. You will bridge the gap between high-level security policy and low-level system enforcement, ensuring that our perimeter controls are robust, scalable, and deeply integrated with context-aware access policy frameworks. You will be responsible for the architectural evolution of our egress control systems, moving from simple IP-based rules to sophisticated, content-aware, and identity-driven data movement governance. AS A PRINCIPAL SOFTWARE ENGINEER - IDENTITY, DATA SECURITY AND TRUST AT SNOWFLAKE YOU WILL: Architectural Leadership: Lead the design and implementation of the Data Movement Policy (DMP) framework, ensuring it can handle complex

What you’ll do Act as the technical lead for large parts of the scanner platform: system architecture, codebase structure, and long-term maintainability. Own core runtime foundations: distributed control, state management, fault handling, and reliability. Drive engineering rigor: testability, code quality, review standards, performance regression prevention, and release processes. Build robust observability: logs, metrics, traces, and replayable diagnostics (with privacy constraints). Collaborate with hardware and recon/ML teams to define interfaces, data contracts, timing/synchronization, and failure modes. Lead complex refactors (e.g., message passing / RPC boundaries, modularization, concurrency model) without halting forward progress. What we’re looking for Deep software architecture experience for real-world systems: robotics, instrumentation, medical devices, or other complex distributed products. Strong Python and concurrency background (asyncio, multiprocessing, profiling, performance engineering). Track record of shipping systems that are observable, debuggable, and resilient. Strong technical leadership: clarity, pragmatic trade-offs, and mentoring. Useful experience Building but rock-solid systems: clear interfaces (gRPC/protobuf or equivalent), strong state modeling, and failure handling. High-leverage engineering habits on a lean team: good tests, CI, reproducible dev environments, and fast code review. Practical performance + concurrency work in Python (asyncio, profiling, multiprocessing) and comfort debugging distributed behavior. Security-minded device software: safe defaults, encrypted data paths, and disciplined handling of PII/PHI. Operational thinking: remote updates/management, excellent logging, and diagnostics that make real hardware debuggable.
