About the role

Responsibilities

  • Serve as the tech lead/manager of a Data Science team in the Product organization, leveraging AI tools and functions (e.g., Cortex AI functions, Agents, CoCo) to accelerate product development and data-driven decision-making.
  • Mentor team members in core DS disciplines and on the effective and governed use of generative AI tools, including establishing AI best practices and guardrails.
  • Drive the team's focus toward AI-native deliverables, such as building out Agentic services, semantic views, and conducting AI evaluation for new product features, strategically shifting away from automatable work.
  • Be hands-on by serving as the primary data scientist on projects, specifically focusing on validating the accuracy and output quality of AI-powered analysis and developing POCs for new AI-driven product features.
  • Partner with technical and business stakeholders to not only come up with solutions to stated problems, but encourage and enable the team to develop bottoms up ideas.
  • Maximize the impact of the team, by making sure the data scientists have the best and correct context, and ensuring their skill sets are properly matched to the project.
  • Grow the team, when appropriate. Convince job candidates on why Snowflake, and the product data science team is an awesome place to work.
