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 Snowpark is how developers run distributed Python, Java, and Scala workloads directly on the Snowflake platform — securely, at scale, and without moving data. It is one of Snowflake's most differentiated and fastest-growing products, and as workloads become agent-driven — where Python is the default — its growth is only accelerating. Having expanded from structured data into semi-structured and ETL workloads, Snowpark is now entering its most exciting phase: unstructured, multimodal, and agentic AI data processing. We are looking for a Principal Product Manager to own Snowpark and lead this next chapter. This is a general-manager-style role: you will own the strategy, growth, and go-to-market for a critical product line, acting as an entrepreneur with the autonomy to propose and launch multiple 0→1 bets on top of an already highly successful product. You will be the most senior PM on the product, with a clear path to lead the Snowpark PM team as you demonstrate impact. AS A PRINCIPAL PM AT SNOWFLAKE, YOU WILL: Define the Mission: Own the end-to-end, multi-year strategy and roadmap for Snowpark as the standard for distributed Python, Java, and Scala processing on the data platform. Lead the 0→1: Drive the expansion into unstructured/multimodal data processing
