Description
We are powering the era of the agentic enterprise. As a Developer Advocate at Snowflake, you will help builders discover, adopt, and succeed with Snowflake's AI and developer portfolio by creating high-quality technical content, demos, workshops, and community programs.
Responsibilities:
- Create technical content and adoption assets: Build clear, accurate documentation, quickstarts, tutorials, code samples, demos, and reference applications for developers and data practitioners.
- Turn complex AI, data, and application-development concepts into approachable, practical learning experiences.
- Contribute reusable patterns, templates, and playbooks that help builders move from first use to production.
- Support launches and developer programs: Help prepare priority AI and developer products for launch by testing developer journeys, identifying friction, and creating day-one enablement assets.
- Design and deliver workshops, hackathons, talks, and hands-on labs for customers, partners, students, and developer communities.
- Work with field and go-to-market teams on customer-ready demos, solution briefs, presentations, and technical walkthroughs.
- Connect developers and product teams: Gather feedback from community, customers, field teams, support, documentation, and product usage, then synthesize it into clear developer insights.
- Partner with Product and Engineering to improve onboarding, documentation, samples, APIs, tools, and the overall developer experience.
- Use qualitative feedback and adoption metrics to evaluate your work and improve content and programs over time.
- Represent Snowflake in the developer ecosystem: Participate authentically in developer, data, AI, and open-source communities through events, forums, technical content, and contributions.
- Build relationships with practitioners, learn where they get stuck, and help them succeed with Snowflake and the broader ecosystem.
- Share emerging developer needs, tools, and practices with internal teams.
Requirements:
- Completion of a Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, AI/ML, Data Science, Human-Computer Interaction, or a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience.
- A strong technical foundation and experience building software products demonstrated through prior roles, internships, coursework, open-source contributions, or substantial personal projects.
- Hands-on experience with developer tools, APIs, SDKs, CLI tools, source control, CI/CD etc.
- Familiarity with modern AI development, including prompting, grounding, evaluation, RAG, agents, tool calling, or LLM APIs.
- Excellent written and verbal communication, with the ability to explain technical concepts through clear narratives, examples, and presentations.
- Comfort presenting and facilitating technical sessions for groups with different levels of experience.
- A bias for action and ownership: you can structure ambiguous problems, learn quickly, seek feedback, and iterate.
- Strong collaboration skills and experience working across technical and non-technical teams through school, internships, community work, or prior roles.
Nice to Have:
- Internship, co-op, or project experience as a software, data, ML/AI, or solutions engineer.
- Experience with Snowflake or another cloud data platform.
- Understanding of data and analytics workflows such as SQL, ELT/ETL, notebooks, dbt, data science, or application development.
- Contributions to open-source projects, technical blogs, documentation, videos, or developer communities.
- Experience organizing hackathons, meetups, workshops, student clubs, or other technical community programs.
- Experience measuring content, community, or product adoption using quantitative and qualitative signals.
What We Offer:
- Help shape how developers and data teams build with AI at a strategic moment for Snowflake.
- Create high-impact developer experiences used by customers and practitioners around the world.
- Learn from experienced advocates, product managers, engineers, and AI practitioners while owning meaningful work from day one.
- Be part of a culture that values thoughtful craftsmanship, velocity, collaboration, and customer obsession.
