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. Snowflake is now building a world class OLTP service on Postgres. We’re hiring Senior Postgres Engineers to help build the new Snowflake Postgres service. This is an exciting opportunity to help build a large scale, multi-cloud Postgres offering with access to an existing customer base. AS A SENIOR POSTGRES ENGINEER YOU WILL: Develop orchestration layer/ control-plane of large scale databases Work with AWS, Azure, and GCP APIs Build High Availability and Disaster Recovery solutions Tune Postgres to operate at scale for some of the largest datasets in the world Secure and ensure customer data is protected Work alongside some of the brightest minds in the industry and help redefine the space by inventing at various layers of the software stack — from broad distributed systems to low-level optimizations that fundamentally change the performance characteristics of the system to cater to our customer needs. OUR IDEAL SENIOR POSTGRES ENGINEER WILL HAVE: 7+ years industry experience designing, building and developing large scale systems in production Experience building and maintaining distributed, highly available, fault tolerant services Excellent understanding of low level operating systems concepts including multi-threading, memory management, networking, storage, performance,

Join us in building the future of finance. Our mission is to democratize finance for all. An estimated $124 trillion of assets will be inherited by younger generations in the next two decades. The largest transfer of wealth in human history. If you’re ready to be at the epicenter of this historic cultural and financial shift, keep reading. About the team + role We are building an elite team, applying frontier technologies to the world's biggest financial problems. We're looking for bold thinkers. Sharp problem-solvers. Builders who are wired to make an impact. Robinhood isn't a place for complacency, it's where ambitious people do the best work of their careers. We're a high-performing, fast-moving team with ethics at the center of everything we do. Expectations are high, and so are the rewards. Robinhood's Security Engineering org is a builder-first security engineering team — engineers organized across Cloud Security, Infrastructure Security, Security Platform, and Detection & Response. Unlike traditional security teams that identify risk and hand it off, this org builds the systems that solve it. We own the critical authentication and identity infrastructure that protects every Robinhood user, the cryptographic libraries and access provisioning systems that keep internal operations secure, and the telemetry and detection platforms that give our security operations team the signal they need to move fast. If it secures how Robinhood runs — we built it. AI is reshaping what this team does and how it operates across two dimensions. First, we are embedding security directly into Robinhood's growing AI and agentic infrastructure — building the runtime authentication, credential management, and validation systems that make it possible to run AI safely in production at scale. Second, we are using AI to fundamentally multiply the capability of the security program itself — building intelligent internal platforms that surface vulnerabilities, accelerate detection
