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 are looking for a Senior Solution Engineer for the Netherlands market who can solve our customer’s most complex problems. In this role you will work directly with the account sales team and channel partners to understand the needs of our customers, strategize on how to best support them in their evaluation and ultimately help our customers choose Snowflake as their solution.

As a Snowflake Solution Engineer you share our passion for solving complex data challenges and helping organizations to get the most out of their data assets. Our technical landscape is ever evolving and you are keen to learn new skills and put them into practice on real world challenges. You are able to translate features and functions into solutions that solve business problems, in conversations with technical or business teams, with end users or executives.

  • Present Snowflake’s 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
  • Create and develop technical champions in your accounts to drive deals and achieve a technical win
  • Be at the cutting edge of Snowflake technology and confidently present Snowflake roadmap features and functionality to customers and/or prospects
  • Immerse and enable 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
  • Work closely with other sales engineers to make each other the best and constantly learn from wins and losses
  • Collaborate with Product Management, Engineering, and Marketing to continuously improve Snowflake’s products and marketing
  • Represent Snowflake at industry or customer events
  • Work with our ecosystem and implementation partners to build joint architectures or collaborate on account strategies and initiatives to help our customers be successful
  • Proactively contribute and help co-develop Account & territory plans and execute while engaging with the broader internal/external ecosystem.

Requirements

  • Solution engineering/solution architect experience in a Saas environment or relevant industry experience (analytics, data science, data engineering etc)
  • Outstanding presentation skills to both technical and executive audiences, whether impromptu on a whiteboard or using presentations and demos
  • Understanding of and experience with data architecture, data analytics and cloud technology
  • Hands on experience with SQL
  • Ability to solve customer specific business problems and apply Snowflake’s solutions
  • Customer-facing skills to effectively communicate our vision to a wide variety of technical and executive audiences both written and verbal
  • Fluency or Native Dutch.

  • Hands on experience with Python
  • Experience working with modern data technology (e.g. dbt, spark, containers, devops tooling, orchestration tools, git, etc.)
  • Experience with AI, data science and machine learning technologies

People want to buy from people who understand them. Our Solution Engineers build connections, relationships and trust with our customers that last. We love to learn, are open to giving and receiving feedback and are passionate about making our customers and each other successful.

Think you have what it takes but not sure that you tick every box above? Apply anyways! We value the broad range of experience our teams bring to the table and believe our customers are more successful because of it.
