Why This Job is Featured on The SaaS Jobs
This Senior Software Engineer role sits at the intersection of SaaS platforms, data infrastructure, and product experience. The Sharing Foundation team is focused on the mechanics of how data moves between organizations through Snowflake’s Data Cloud, including marketplace-style distribution and zero-copy access patterns. Within the SaaS ecosystem, that places the work close to multi-tenant realities like interoperability, trust boundaries, and making complex capabilities usable through coherent workflows.
From a SaaS career standpoint, the role offers sustained exposure to building product surfaces and the backend systems that support them, with an emphasis on performance, reliability, and security. The problem space is inherently platform-oriented: integrating with external SaaS data sources, shaping APIs and services that other teams and partners depend on, and treating scale as a first-class constraint. Experience in this area transfers well across data-intensive SaaS, developer platforms, and B2B products where distribution and integration drive adoption.
This position is best suited to an engineer who enjoys end-to-end ownership and collaborating across product, design, and engineering to ship customer-facing capabilities. It fits someone comfortable moving between frontend and backend concerns, and who values foundational work that sets long-lived patterns for how a SaaS platform exposes and governs shared data.
