Snowflake is seeking an AI-native Senior Solution Engineer to drive the era of the agentic enterprise. This role involves working closely with sales teams and partners to understand customer needs, strategize sales cycles, deliver compelling demonstrations, support Proof of Concepts, and close business. The ideal candidate will possess strong technical and business acumen, with hands-on expertise in large-scale databases, data warehousing, ETL, cloud technologies, SQL, Python, and AI/ML principles. Excellent presentation skills for both executive and technical audiences are essential. This is an onsite role located in São Paulo, Brazil.

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.

  • Present Snowflake technology and vision to executives and technical contributors at prospects and customers

  • Work hands-on with prospects and customers to demonstrate and communicate the value of Snowflake technology throughout the sales cycle, from demo to proof of concept to design and implementation

  • Immerse yourself in the ever-evolving industry, maintaining a deep understanding of competitive and complementary technologies and vendors and how to position Snowflake in relation to them.

  • Collaborate with Product Management, Engineering, and Marketing to continuously improve Snowflake’s products and marketing

ON DAY ONE WE WILL EXPECT YOU TO HAVE:

  • Outstanding presenting skills to both technical and executive audiences, whether impromptu on a whiteboard or using presentations and demos.

  • Broad range of experience within large-scale Database and/or Data Warehouse technology, ETL, analytics and cloud technologies

  • Hands-on expertise with SQL and SQL analytics

  • Hands-on experience with Python

  • Understanding of AI/ML principles and best practices

  • Ability to connect a customer’s specific business problems and Snowflake’s solutions
