Senior Snowflake Platform Engineer

Senior Snowflake Platform Engineer (x4), Financial Services, Sydney

Build a Snowflake platform from the ground up for one of Australia’s largest banks.

We’re partnering with a leading financial services client to find four senior, hands-on Snowflake specialists.

Together you’ll design, engineer and operationalise an enterprise-scale Snowflake platform for a Big 4 Australian bank.

This isn’t a SQL, reporting or ETL development role.

We’re looking for platform engineers who have personally built, secured, automated and run Snowflake in large, regulated environments.

What you’ll be doing

• Designing the platform foundations: account structure, environments and architecture
• Implementing governance, security and access controls that meet banking standards
• Automating deployments with CI/CD and infrastructure as code
• Setting up operational processes, monitoring, cost management and the support model
• Getting the platform ready for enterprise-scale data workloads

What you’ll bring

• Proven experience building and operating Snowflake platforms in enterprise environments, ideally financial services or another regulated industry
• Deep knowledge of Snowflake administration: RBAC, network policies, data masking, resource monitors and cost governance
• Infrastructure as code and automation experience (e.g. Terraform, schemachange, GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps or similar)
• Cloud platform experience across AWS or Azure, including integration and security
• Ability to work with architects, security teams and stakeholders in a complex enterprise

Nice to have: SnowPro Advanced certification (Architect or Administrator), and experience with dbt, data observability tools or migrations onto Snowflake.
