AI ENGINEERING


Snowflake drives data forward — and we’re the engine room of innovation behind it. We make enterprise AI smarter by design, turning raw data into real insights and models into measurable value — from AI research and infrastructure to agents and apps. Built to scale, reason, and make a lasting impact, we take our platform and our field to new heights. 

MEET THE TEAMS


Check out the teams behind the scenes in Menlo Park, BellevueWarsaw, and around the world
AI Research
We conduct open, foundational, and applied research in the field of artificial intelligence to turn big questions into bigger breakthroughs. Through our work, we create easy, efficient, trusted AI features that advance our platform, inspire innovation, and expand what’s possible in enterprise AI — at Snowflake and beyond. 
Applied AI
When customers have a business challenge, we say “game on.” Our team specializes in developing production-grade LLM applications, intelligent agents, and AI-powered workflows that deliver measurable impact. We don't just experiment with cutting-edge technology — we ship it, transforming how enterprise customers work with their data and unlock new value from AI.
Cortex AI Agents and Apps
Data should speak your language. Literally. We make AI easy and accessible by enabling users to develop agents, perform high-quality searches, and interact with their data and apps using natural language.
Cortex AISQL
Customers bring the data. We bring the AI to their databases. Using SQL and prompted LLM calls, we empower users to write, optimize, and query data, making database interactions more agile and powerful across every type of data, no matter the structure. 
Cortex Platform
Here, infrastructure meets intelligence. As the backbone of Snowflake’s platform, we create state-of-the-art systems that scale, power personalized language, and make multi-modal models possible for customers here, there, and everywhere. We’re not another infrastructure team, we’re defining how the world interacts with AI.
Observability
We build more than features — we build trust. With data capture, integration, evaluation, and monitoring, we put safety first to ensure LLM results are grounded, relevant, and accurate for all. 
Snowflake ML
We make building and deploying models on Snowflake simple, secure, and scalable to power machine learning workflows from end to end. With a combination of ML infrastructure and agentic AI, we deliver the tools, runtimes, and capabilities to help users get the most out of their models — and their business.
