you're effective in front of engineers, executive stakeholders, and everyone in between * Experience with modern cloud-native software development lifecycle, including CI/CD, release management, and API-first development * Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field, or equivalent experience BONUS POINTS FOR THE FOLLOWING: * Hands-on experience with Snowflake, data platforms, or developer tooling products (Streamlit, Notebooks, Native Apps, Spark, etc.) * Prior exposure to AI/ML product development programs or agentic application delivery * Experience driving developer ecosystem programs - SDKs, drivers, or developer relations-adjacent work * Familiarity with program management tooling (Linear, Jira, Shortcut) and data-driven program health dashboards * Prior experience in a high-growth, post-IPO technology company environment ## Description * Own and drive complex, cross-functional programs across AppEx engineering teams - spanning application surfaces, developer tooling, AI-powered experiences, and the underlying platform - from scoping through delivery * Partner with Engineering Managers, Product Managers, and Principal Engineers to define program roadmaps, surface dependencies, and build execution plans that hold up under real-world complexity * Serve as the connective tissue across AppEx sub-orgs (Applications, Notebooks, Native Apps, Drivers, AIML, Developer Platform) to keep programs aligned and unblocked * Establish and maintain clear reporting cadences - tracking milestones, risks, decisions, and engineering health - and proactively escalate when things need leadership attention * Drive cross-org alignment on shared APIs, integration points, and developer-facing feature launches that touch multiple Snowflake product surfaces * Identify systemic friction in how AppEx teams plan and deliver; design lightweight processes and tooling-backed workflows to improve engineering velocity and predictability * Represent AppEx programs to senior leadership with crisp, data-backed status and recommendations ## Related Videos - [From Messy Queries to Scalable Systems - How Data Engineering actually works](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100203-from-messy-queries-to-scalable-systems-how-data-engineering-actually-works) - [Improving quality with Agentic AI with Rovo Dev and Xray](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/2005-improving-quality-with-agentic-ai-with-rovo-dev-and-xray) - [How Cisco embraced a DevOps culture within its network engineering team](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/99-how-cisco-embraced-a-devops-culture-within-its-network-engineering-team) - [API Design - Getting Started](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/33-api-design-getting-started) - [Alibaba Big Data and Machine Learning Technology](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/37-alibaba-big-data-and-machine-learning-technology) - [Collaboration Quantified: Lessons from Open Source Developer Networks](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1422-collaboration-quantified-lessons-from-open-source-developer-networks) ## Related Articles - [Highest Paying Tech Companies for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/220-highest-paying-tech-companies-for-developers) - [Navigating the AI Shift](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/629-navigating-the-ai-shift) - [Why Upskilling And Reskilling is Important For Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/428-why-upskilling-and-reskilling-is-important-for-developers) - [Making Data Warehouses Fast: A Developer’s Story](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/107-making-data-warehouses-fast-a-developer-s-story) - [Dev Digest 120 - Apple and peers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/455-dev-digest-120-apple-and-peers) - [Is Software Engineering Over-Saturated?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/418-is-software-engineering-over-saturated)
