• Model data for analytics and build dashboards in Power BI, ThoughtSpot, or Sigma.
• Propose pragmatic data/AI solutions to real problems (e.g. forecasting, ticket triage automation, agentic/ops workflows).
• Use AI coding assistants to draft code/tests, and participate in peer reviews to evolve our AI-assisted engineering practices.
• Work in small, agile squads, communicate clearly with stakeholders and build trusted relationships.

What You’ll Bring

• 1–5 years’ experience in data or adjacent engineering roles (SQL developer, BI developer, data/AI engineer, etc.)
• Strong SQL fundamentals and comfort with cloud data tooling
• High emotional intelligence: you listen, simplify complexity, and build trust
• A bias to ship: structured thinking, pragmatic decisions, and ownership of outcomes
• A growth mindset and eagerness to master Snowflake

Nice to Have

• Exposure to Snowflake, dbt, or BI tools (Power BI, ThoughtSpot, Sigma)
• Experience using Python for data work
• Certifications (e.g. SnowPro) or self-driven learning evidence
• Experience building chatbots, RAG/agentic flows, or automation
