Software Engineer - Secret, Cryptographic and Identity Infrastructure
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. We are hiring a Software Engineer for our SCII (Secret, Cryptographic and Identity Infrastructure) team. SCII builds the foundational security systems that empower every Snowflake engineer to deliver the most secure Data Cloud to our customers — solving the hardest security problems at scale so the rest of the organization doesn't have to. SCII also owns the area of End-to-end encryption (E2EE), to secure customer data that prevents third parties from reading the data while at-rest or in transit to and from Snowflake and to minimize the attack surface. AS A SOFTWARE ENGINEER AT SNOWFLAKE, YOU WILL: - Design, develop, and scale software systems that help Snowflake engineers build secure products across a natively multi-cloud environment. - Build and maintain security tooling to define, monitor, enforce, and detect security policy violations across the platform. - Implement automation and self-service processes that increase developer autonomy and educate engineering teams on secure design and coding practices. - Contribute to the architecture and evolution of core security infrastructure — spanning secret management, key management, service identity, authentication, and authorization. - Partner with engineering teams across the company to understand security p
