Make it snow in
SAN MATEO

Snowflake & San Mateo

In the heart of Silicon Valley, you'll find our 4-story, 2-tower San Mateo hub, which actually emerged from the very spot Snowflake started in 2012 – yep, it all began in one of our founder's humble San Mateo apartments. Pretty cool, right? Ever since then, this place has been booming with incredible growth and innovation. Whether you're into the sunny California weather or digging the tech scene, this campus is the place to be.

Our Office

Modeled as a cozy ski lodge, the San Mateo office is the perfect setting for creativity and collaboration. Daily gourmet breakfast and lunch service keep Snowflakes fueled, while the onsite gym and free yoga and boot camp classes get the blood pumping and endorphins flowing. Take a break at our game room, stocked with pool, ping pong, foosball, and arcade games. Our Waffle Wednesdays and Thursday Happy Hours provide the perfect opportunity to meet and mingle with fellow Snowflakes. The best part? You can find our beloved co-founders around the office to say hi anytime.
