About the company
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…
About the Role
This is a measurement-first role that owns the quality and efficiency of Cortex Code end to end: how good the agent is, how much it costs to run, and how reliably it behaves in production. You will take agents from research capability to real, measurable user…
What you will do in this role
Take agents from prototype to production: design and refine agent behaviors for real coding and data-engineering workflows, and make them reliable enough to depend on. Own agent quality end to end: build eval harnesses, diagnose failure modes from real agent…
Requirements
Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Statistics, or a related field. Master’s or higher preferred but not a requirement. 6+ years of experience shipping software in production, including AI/LLM features. Fluency in at least one of Python,…
Nice to have
Deep hands-on experience with agentic coding tools and real intuition for model strengths, failure modes, and prompting limits. Prior work on eval harnesses, LLM observability, or safety/guardrails in production. Background in data engineering, data modeling,…
