About Snowflake

Snowflake is growing fast and we're scaling our team to help enable and accelerate our growth. We're passionate about our people, our customers, our values, and our culture! We're also looking for people with a growth mindset and the pragmatic insight to solve for today while building for the future. As a Snowflake employee, you will be accountable for supporting and enabling diversity and belonging.

Snowflake started with a clear vision: make modern data warehousing effective, affordable, and accessible to all data users. Because traditional on-premises and cloud solutions struggle with this, Snowflake developed an innovative product with a new built-for-the-cloud architecture that combines the power of data warehousing, the flexibility of big data platforms, and the elasticity of the cloud at a fraction of the cost of traditional solutions.

Snowflake's Support team is expanding and we are looking for an exceptional person to join our growing team to function in a follow-the-sun model. This person needs to weave into a tightly knit global function while having the expertise and experience in optimizing locally to accommodate disparate language and cultural needs.
