Principal Data Cloud Architect Jobs

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. 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

MongoDB's Application Modernization Platform (AMP) team aims to grow the adoption of MongoDB by accelerating the rate at which legacy applications built on RDBMS can be modernized to MongoDB. The AMP team uses a combination of proprietary GenAI and deterministic tools combined with modernization techniques (methodologies) developed over numerous customer engagements to modernize legacy applications to MongoDB. This involves modernizing both the application tier by decomposing the legacy application into services and building modern services on MongoDB. Our modernization methodologies involve apply specialized tools that automate a wide variety of modernization tasks including analyzing legacy code bases to figure out how to disaggregate them, transforming legacy code (PL/SQL, T-SQL, Java, C#) to modern application frameworks on MongoDB, automated test generation, and side-by-side testing (legacy vs. modern). We are looking for a Solutions Architect to support the sales and delivery of modernization engagements. This role will be based remotely in France. Roles Responsibilities Ideally 8 to 11 years of related experience in a customer facing role, with 5 to 7 years of experience in pre-sales with enterprise software Minimum of 3 years experience with modern scripting languages (e.g. Python, Node.js, SQL) and/or popular programming languages (e.g. C/C++, Java, C#) in a professional capacity Experience with modern software development processes and application architectures including (not an exhaustive list): agile development, domain driven design, microservice architectures, test-driven development, event-driven architectures, operational data layers, test automation, etc. Experience designing with scalable and highly available distributed systems in the cloud and on-prem Facilitate technical workshops and discovery sessions with customer architects, developers, and business leaders Experience installing and delivering complex demonstrations consist

At Snowflake, your role isn't just to execute a function, but to help redefine the future of how work gets done. We are hiring a Principal Engineer II to architect the core data processing engine of the Snowflake Data & AI Cloud. At Snowflake, we believe that high-performance, unified compute fabrics are the indispensable building blocks for Agentic AI. Autonomous agents require more than just models; they require a high-fidelity, low-latency state layer to reason, act, and persist context. This role is not about building traditional data processing pipelines or legacy ETL/ELT workflows; it is about building the core distributed systems and atomic primitives that make those agentic workflows possible. In this role, you will be a lead architect of the Snowflake Data Transformation Engine. You will design and implement the fundamental transformations infrastructure—Stateful Stream Processing Engines, Incremental View Maintenance Engine, Materialization Internals, and the Distributed Orchestration Fabric. Our solid foundation supporting the seamless transition for enterprises between batch and streaming through Dynamic Tables, Streams & Tasks, and DBT Projects is the starting point. Your architectural work will extend the reach of the core engine to accelerate and support the massive scale of the Snowpark and Spark ecosystems. You are building the systems that allow both data eng

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
