Senior Full Stack Engineer, App Runtime

At Snowflake, we are powering the era of the agentic enterprise.

The App Runtime team is building a platform that lets every Snowflake user go from an idea to a live, deployed web application (Node.js first) in minutes.

As a Senior Full Stack Engineer, you will drive initiatives that span our product areas and tech stack.

Responsibilities

• Build the AI-assisted, agentic development experiences that power App Runtime, spanning the full tech stack - React, Go, Python, and Java
• Stay deeply hands-on by authoring technical and design specs that consider the system holistically (frontend and backend) and implementing critical code
• Partner directly with customers, i.e. developers building Snowflake Apps, translating their needs into features and improvements
• Raise the bar for quality, reliability and performance through code review; mentor engineers
• Coordinate closely with sister teams such as Cortex AI, Container Platform or Security

Requirements:

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering or a related field. Master’s or higher is preferred but not a requirement
• 5+ years of experience including significant experience in frontend or full-stack software development, with a demonstrated track record of designing, shipping and operating high-scale systems
• Deep understanding of modern web application architecture (e.g. React, NextJS), good API design patterns, security, performance and scale; proficiency in TypeScript/JavaScript, ideally also in Go, Python and/or Java
• Good communication skills: crisp write-ups, constructive debate, and ability to drive consensus across engineering, design and product

Nice to have:

• Experience shipping 0-1 products where you skillfully balanced the trade-offs between feature completeness and time-to-market
• Experience with multi-tenant systems (ideally app hosting platforms or tooling for developers) with strong isolation and a security-first posture
• Technical leadership experience, such as being an architect or tech lead for high-impact customer-facing products
