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 Senior Software Engineer across our Identity, Data Security and Trust organization. These teams builds the security backbone of Snowflake — enabling customers to confidently bring their most sensitive data and workloads to the Data Cloud, empowering every Snowflake engineer to deliver the most secure platform at scale, and giving customers the tools to monitor, achieve, and maintain a strong security, governance, privacy, and compliance posture. As the agentic era accelerates, these teams are at the forefront of building AI-native security capabilities that protect the world's data.

As the agentic era accelerates, these teams are at the forefront of building AI-native security capabilities that protect the world's data. AS A SENIOR SOFTWARE ENGINEER AT SNOWFLAKE, YOU WILL: - Design and implement critical AI security capabilities — including controlled, audited agent workflows, MCP server and client security, agent identity frameworks, and admin guardrails — that form the foundation for secure agentic enterprise adoption

- Build and maintain security tooling to define, monitor, enforce, and detect policy violations across the platform; implement automation and self-service processes that increase developer autonomy and promote secure-by-default engineering - Design and implement extensible, plug-and-play platform components that enable first-, second-, and third-party security detectors, responders, and visualizations to be built on top of Snowflake's Trust Center - Leverage industry-accredited benchmarks (e.g., CIS) to develop standards-based security posture assessments; contribute to behavioral analytics pipelines and PII attribution capabilities that help detect, prevent, and respond to threats and abuse vectors

- Experience deploying and operating services on Kubernetes or production cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP) WHY JOIN OUR IDENTITY, DATA SECURITY AND TRUST TEAM AT SNOWFLAKE? These teams sit at a rare intersection: the security, identity, infrastructure, and customer trust layers of one of the fastest-growing data platforms in the world. You won't be maintaining someone else's security layer; you'll be defining it. These are teams that value craft, curiosity, and collaboration, and that take pride in making complex security invisible to the developers and customers who depend on it. If you want a role where your technical decisions matter and your growth is tied directly to the scale of the platform you're protecting — and you're energized by the challenge of securing the agentic era before it fully arrives — this is it.
