Experience: 8+ years

Location: Sydney, Australia

Work Arrangement: Hybrid,

Work Rights: Valid Australian work rights required

Visa Sponsorship: Not available

Contract: 12 Months

We are looking for hands-on Snowflake platform specialists to help establish, secure, automate and operationalise an enterprise-scale Snowflake platform within a large, regulated environment.

This is not a generic Snowflake Developer or ETL role. We need professionals with practical experience building and managing the Snowflake platform itself, not just developing SQL queries, reports or data pipelines on an existing platform.

? Key Responsibilities

- Establish and configure Snowflake platforms from the ground up.
- Design and manage Snowflake accounts, environments and platform architecture.
- Configure virtual warehouses, workload management and resource monitoring.
- Implement RBAC, authentication, security and access controls.
- Manage networking, connectivity, monitoring and auditing.
- Build CI/CD pipelines and automate deployments.
- Troubleshoot production issues and optimise platform performance and cost.
- Provide technical leadership while remaining hands-on.

? Preferred Skills & Experience





- Solid hands-on Snowflake platform engineering and administration experience.
- Experience in banking, financial services or other regulated enterprise environments.
- AWS cloud experience.
- Terraform or other Infrastructure as Code tools.
- dbt and Snowpark/Python.
- Teradata or legacy data-platform modernisation experience.
- Relevant Snowflake certifications.

✅ Who Should Apply?

Professionals who have genuinely participated in setting up, securing, automating and operating enterprise Snowflake platforms.

⚠️ Candidates whose experience is primarily Snowflake SQL development, BI/reporting or generic ETL engineering, without platform implementation and administration experience, will not be considered for the Platform Engineer / Technical Lead positions.

Please include your current location, total experience, relevant Snowflake platform implementation experience, Australian work rights and notice period in your application.
