This is an individual-contributor role focused on platform setup, access administration, security configuration, metadata and governance implementation, operational support, and documentation.

The role requires strong SQL and expert-level Python capability, sound GitHub practices, and practical experience administering Snowflake environments with discipline and thoroughness. The Snowflake Administrator partners closely with data engineering, security, privacy, and audit stakeholders to maintain compliant platform operations, support governance processes, and ensure appropriate controls are designed, documented, and executed.

- Grant, review, and revoke user and role-based access with strong attention to detail, segregation-of-duties considerations, and documented approval processes.

- Design, implement, and maintain Snowflake security capabilities including role-based access control, row-level security, masking policies, tagging, metadata structures, and other governance-related platform features.

- Establish and support data-governance controls within Snowflake, including classification-related tagging, object ownership standards, metadata setup, policy alignment, and traceable administrative practices.

- Support platform-adjacent services and servers used by orchestration tools such as Dagster, including ongoing environment support, issue investigation, coordination, and operational continuity.





- Partner with data engineering teams on Snowflake operational needs, platform standards, dbt-related enablement, and environment readiness for data-pipeline delivery.

- Prepare and maintain high-quality technical, administrative, and PMO documentation, including access procedures, role models, environment standards, runbooks, status tracking, action logs, and operational records.

- Support governance, audit, security, and privacy processes by producing required evidence, maintaining control-related documentation, participating in reviews, and coordinating with security and privacy teams during internal and external audits.

- Monitor platform health, investigate incidents, troubleshoot access and configuration issues, and drive timely resolution with appropriate communication and escalation.

- Recommend and implement improvements to platform administration, governance posture, operational processes, and control effectiveness.
