As a Snowflake platform engineer within our data platforms team, you will lead the design, development, and optimization of enterprise-scale Snowflake solutions.

You’ll collaborate with cross‑functional teams to ensure seamless integration, performance, and scalability across our data ecosystem. We practice a remote‑first working model, leveraging in‑person interactions at our head office, in beautiful Vancouver, BC, for strategic, collaborative, and social purposes.

• Implement governance practices including access control, security policies, and data masking.
• Design and optimize bronze, silver, and gold data quality zones within Snowflake.
• Develop and maintain CI / CD pipelines for Snowflake, integrating automation to streamline development, deployment, and testing.
• Apply data remediation techniques to detect, resolve, and prevent data quality issues.
• Automate Snowflake operations (provisioning, monitoring, optimization, cost management).
• Own platform accountability — ensuring high availability, transactional reliability, and incident recovery.
• Monitor and forecast platform performance, capacity, and costs.
