Role summary
Snowflake is seeking AI-native thinkers for an enterprise agentic era. As a Senior Project Manager, you will lead complex migration projects for strategic customers, acting as a trusted advisor to senior stakeholders. You will coordinate workstreams, manage project governance, drive data migration and code conversion efforts, and ensure on-time, on-budget delivery. Staying current with AI technology is key. You will own the project lifecycle, identify and mitigate risks, and collaborate with internal teams and external partners. The ideal candidate has 7+ years of experience in project management, with a focus on data and cloud migrations, and strong executive communication skills. Experience in Data Warehousing, BI, or Cloud is required.
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.
As a Senior Project Manager, you will deliver complex migration projects and drive successful customer outcomes, working with both customers and internal stakeholders. You will serve as the Project Lead for strategic customers, acting as a trusted advisor to senior stakeholders, collaborating with internal teams to define the approach, build the project plan, proactively mitigate risks, and execute on delivering customer value.

Be a project management expert on Snowflake implementation and migration engagements, coordinating across multiple workstreams efficiently
Deliver Fixed Fee and highly scoped projects on time and within budget
Own project governance for budget and revenue reconciliation
Lead data migration and code conversion efforts

Stay current with Agentic AI and modern AI technology implementation as it relates to migration delivery
Be the driving force in project execution, use case identification, roadmapping, and risk analysis for the customer
Drive planning and execution of the project plan, working collaboratively with customers, partners, and internal stakeholders
Own the project lifecycle — ensuring the project meets all milestones and objectives characterized by on-time, on-budget, and predictable delivery
Proactively identify and mitigate project risks, including risks associated with adjacent workstreams that may be outside the direct scope of the engagement
Collaborate and communicate effectively with workstream owners, setting clear expectations and maintaining timely communication
As a trusted advisor, partner with customer Director and VP-level stakeholders to drive alignment and guide the project to successful delivery
Leverage and improve program management methodology — processes, tools, templates, and checklists
Champion customer outcomes and clearly articulate project value in quantifiable metrics
Drive customer satisfaction expressed through surveys, renewals, and additional opportunities for Snowflake
Work with Professional Services Practice Teams and Sales Account Teams to support scoping, estimating, creating delivery proposals, and providing regular delivery updates
Collaborate with Product Management, Engineering, and Marketing to continuously improve Snowflake's products and processes
Identify areas for process improvement within both the customer engagement and Snowflake
