Lead Security Architect in Bellevue

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. 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
