About The Position

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.
The success and effectiveness of our engineering teams is the most critical factor in helping customers succeed with Snowflake. Ensuring our internal developer tools and products enable our engineers to focus their full attention on new services and features so they can improve and expand our customers' experience with Snowflake. We’re looking for an experienced Product Manager who is passionate about developer experience and productivity. You will have an immense impact on the company's entire engineering organization as you remove blockers and friction that slow our engineers, paving the road to innovation and product leadership.
In this role you will manage a small team of PM’s who work closely with our engineering teams to identify how we accelerate our engineers' ability to impact our customers and grow the business. You’ll be responsible for the end to end developer experience spanning onboarding, the developer tooling and environment, testing, CI/CD, and many other systems and products that our engineers rely on.
We’re looking for candidates with strong technical and product management skills, who have built systems that leverage and imbue AI into the solutions, tools, and services that accelerate impact, have experience managing a PM team, and that can operate at both the strategic level and execution level. At Snowflake, we put our customers first and want to continue building products that our users love.

Requirements

• 10+ years of relevant industry experience, with the majority of that as an Engineer and at least 2 of those as a Product Manager.
• 5+ years of experience hiring, building, scaling and managing product management teams in high growth companies.
• Led transformations of productivity for larger engineering teams using AI to accelerate time to impact.
• Experience using and improving the tools and processes used by Engineers to build the services and features our customers use.
• Significant experience working with Engineering and Data Science.
• Be able to understand the breadth of our product line as well as get technical and be able to drill into details on owned areas.
• Have proven experience defining a product vision and roadmap and managing incremental execution through successful launches.
• Thrive in the dynamic environment that comes with being part of an innovative startup from its early days. That means flexibility as well as dealing with ambiguity.
• Be highly data driven, knowing how to get, understand, and use data to make the best possible decisions.
• Move quickly and constantly iterate, moving from hypotheses developed from customer conversations, data and insights to running tests to confirm those hypotheses, to learnings and iteration towards a solution that customers didn’t even realize they wanted but now can’t live without.
• Operate and think of both the customer experience layer and deeper in the technology stack. Know whether the limitations of the current systems and tools are reasonable or if we should rebuild to enable new capabilities.
• Drive execution with a cross-functional team, ensuring that everyone is working towards the same goals and impact.

Responsibilities

• Grow a world-class PM team that delivers best in class systems, services, and tools to help engineers at Snowflake more easily deliver value to customers.
• Define and evolve the product vision for Snowflake’s Developer experience. Help us evolve the products and services we build to help our engineers succeed.
• Work hand in hand with our senior leadership and engineers, engaging in frequent conversations to understand needs, gather feedback, and overall ensure that product direction is in tune with customer needs.
• Manage programs and structure projects to ensure smooth execution of the product roadmap.
• Work closely with engineering, technical program management and data scientists to own delivery and execution.
