Full Job Description

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. Snowflake customers have more than 3.9 billion queries and more than 515 million data workloads that run each day. Build the future of data. Join the Snowflake team. The Snowflake Engineering team is a global team of high performing engineers focused on building best in class tooling, automation, and a scalable infrastructure platform to run the Snowflake service. The team’s focus areas include Snowflake's global scale multi-cloud infrastructure, core platform services, edge traffic delivery, and reliability engineering. The team also automates the deployment of the Snowflake production service across dozens of regions and major cloud providers. We are looking for talented and passionate Software Engineers to join our Traffic & Networking team in Dublin, Ireland. These systems deal with DNS management, TLS termination, load balancing, CDNs, L4 and L7 networking, and traffic routing. Every incoming request into Snowflake flows through or relies on these systems. The critical nature of these services demands a very high level of reliability. As more and more customers globally start using Snowflake in a variety of ways, the Edge will need to support more features and sustain higher throughput while remaining reliable. We have been on a significant growth journey at Snowflake,
