A globally distributed team of 200+ experts united by a shared purpose: the continuous pursuit of quality.\nOur clients come to us for results, quality and craft - and stay because we keep raising the bar.\nWe Do Things Differently at LateralOur mission is simple: design and build great products. \nWhat sets us apart isn’t just the talent of our team - it’s the way we work:\nWe Have A Bias For Action & Results.We are doers - we spot the gaps, connect the dots, anticipate what’s around the corner and take action. We move fast, stay focused, and let the results - not the effort - speak for themselves.\n\nWe Work On Time, On Budget, On Quality\nDiscipline is our edge - a commitment we make to each other, to our clients, and to the standards we hold ourselves to.\nWe Care Deeply.We care about our work and about each other. Care Is A Competitive Advantage.\nEvery detail matters. Every design, every line of code, every decision. Thoughtful by default.\n\nWe Do Things Right - Because It’s the Right Thing to Do\nRight over easy. Integrity isn’t up for negotiation. We hold the bar high even when no one’s watching. We take pride in doing great work the right way - not the easy way.\n\nWe Keep Improving\nThe best teams keep improving and we’re never done learning.\nWe iterate. We reflect on what’s working and what’s not. Feedback fuels us, we receive it openly, and adapt quickly. Progress over perfection. \n\nWe’re Obsessed With Agility, Not The Agile Manifesto\nWe don’t chase dogma or rituals - we chase momentum. We adapt processes to fit problems, not the other way around.\nWe Take Ownership\nEveryone leads something here. You will have room to run with ideas, and the trust to execute. That trust is built on how you show up: thinking things through, sweating the details, and following through.\nWhat You'll DoAs a Senior Snowflake Engineer you will:\nDesign, develop, and maintain scalable data pipelines and transformation logic using Snowflake (SnowSQL, Snowpark, Streams, Tasks, Warehouses).\n\nBuild and optimize complex SQL, stored procedures, UDFs, and performance-tuned queries.\n\nImplement data ingestion frameworks and integrations from multiple sources (APIs, files, SaaS systems, cloud storage, etc.).\n\nModel and structure data (3NF, Data Vault, Dimensional Modeling) to support analytics and enterprise reporting.\n\nOptimize Snowflake compute usage, warehouse sizing, caching strategies, and cost-performance tradeoffs.\n\nEnsure data quality, lineage, observability, and reliability across the pipeline lifecycle.\n\nImplement and improve CI/CD processes for data development, including version control, automated testing, and safe deployment patterns.\n\nWork closely with TPMs and client stakeholders to clarify requirements, scope data work, communicate progress, and align on timelines.\n\nCollaborate with engineers, analysts, and product teams to ensure data solutions actually solve real business needs.\n\nContribute to documentation, coding standards, and best practices across the data engineering function.\n\nWhatever the challenge, you’ll be building software that changes lives and moves industries forward.\nWe measure success through:\nEvaluating results (what you’ve shipped)\n\nQuality and reliability of your code.\n\nConsistency in delivery.\n\nFeedback from peers and leads.\n\nYour ability to work independently and unblock others.\n\nWhat We’re Looking ForTeam members who are both highly technical and care deeply about their craft and how the work gets done. We’re looking for a strong, hands-on Snowflake engineer who brings technical depth, good judgment, and a thoughtful approach to data engineering.\nYou must bring:\n5+ years of experience in data engineering, with at least 2–3 years dedicated to Snowflake development.\n\nAdvanced SQL expertise - highly optimized queries, analytical functions, complex transformations, performance tuning.\n\nHands-on experience with Snowflake features: Warehouses, RBAC, Streams, Tasks, Snowpipe, external stages, data sharing.\n\nStrong experience with ETL/ELT tools and orchestration (e.g., dbt, Airflow, Azure Data Factory, AWS Glue, Matillion, etc.).\n\nExperience modeling data for analytics and operational systems (star/snowflake schemas, Data Vault, etc.).\n\nDeep understanding of data quality, governance, schema design, and lifecycle management.\n\nComfort working with cloud data ecosystems (AWS, Azure, or GCP).\n\nExperience integrating Snowflake with BI tools (Tableau, Looker, Power BI) and downstream consumers.\n\nStrong communication skills - clear, structured, and able to work with technical and non-technical stakeholders.\n\nA high bar for craft, reliability, and accuracy.\n\nWhy You’ll Love Working Here\nReal Impact: You’ll work on meaningful products that make a measurable difference - from healthcare and commerce to sustainability and next-gen tech.\n\nRemote-First, Office Friendly: Work from wherever you’re most productive - whether that’s your home, a co-working space, or one of our offices. We’re a remote-first company, but if you’re near an office, you’re welcome to drop in, collaborate in person, or work onsite regularly. \n\nWe prioritize async collaboration, respect your time zone, and focus on outcomes over hours.\n\nAn Outstanding Team: Talented, kind, and hard-working people who care deeply about their craft - and about each other. No egos. No politics. Just professionals doing their best work.\n\nGrowth: You’ll be supported in growing your craft, exploring new paths, and stepping into greater responsibility - at your own pace\n\nA Culture of Excellence: We care deeply about doing the right thing - for our clients, our team, and ourselves. No burnout. No crunch. Just high-quality work, delivered sustainably.\n\nVariety & Stability: We’re profitable, independent, and over a decade strong. Yet every project brings a fresh challenge. You’ll never be bored here.\n\nThis Role Might Not Be for YouWe want to respect your time by being clear about what this role isn’t. You should skip this opportunity if:\n\nYou prefer well defined structure. If you gravitate towards a clear hierarchy, well defined roles and swim lanes, you may find our self-managed style challenging.\n\nDistributed work isn’t your thing. If you find async communication, design documentation and being proactive without a manager nearby difficult, our setup won’t suit you.\n\nFeedback doesn't excite you. We’re obsessed with quality and believe in continuous improvement. That means we give feedback that’s sometimes nitpicky. If refining the work until it’s excellent feels over the top, you are likely going to find working here frustrating. \n\nChange makes you uncomfortable. We’re scaling and maturing. That means not everything is perfect yet. Priorities shift. Processes evolve. If ambiguity is uncomfortable, this may feel bumpy.\n\nHowever, If this sounds like fuel, we’d love to talk!\nHow to apply and what to expect in the interview process01. Your work\nShow us the work that reflects you at your best. We’ll look at depth, design thinking, and the logic behind your choices.\n02. Lateral team fit\nYou’ll speak with our Talent team about your career direction, your motivators, and our plans ahead.\n03. Work trialYou’ll tackle a take-home challenge that mirrors what we actually do.\n04.Engineering deep dive\nA collaborative session with our engineers.\n05. Project fit\nAn interview focussed on prioritization, collaboration across disciplines, and how you handle the \"messy middle\".\nOriginally posted on Himalayas","description_format":"text","description_chars":7647,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"Argentina","iso":"AR","kind":"country"},{"name":"Brazil","iso":"BR","kind":"country"},{"name":"Mexico","iso":"MX","kind":"country"},{"name":"Bolivia","iso":"BO","kind":"country"},{"name":"Chile","iso":"CL","kind":"country"},{"name":"Costa Rica","iso":"CR","kind":"country"},{"name":"Paraguay","iso":"PY","kind":"country"},{"name":"Peru","iso":"PE","kind":"country"},{"name":"Uruguay","iso":"UY","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Design & Creative","Industrial Design","Logistics"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-11-07T02:28:15Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":90,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.903,"p_room":1,"age_days":3,"expected_fill_days":30,"reasons":["seen:3","velocity","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-11-09T06:03:00Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/lateral-senior-snowflake-engineer-latam","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/lateral-senior-snowflake-engineer-latam.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-09T06:29:06Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":2718,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-10T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":4401357},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=4401357"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Flateral-senior-snowflake-engineer-latam"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":2,"usd":0.2},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Flateral-senior-snowflake-engineer-latam"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Flateral-senior-snowflake-engineer-latam"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/lateral-senior-snowflake-engineer-latam\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Flateral-senior-snowflake-engineer-latam"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":3905184}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"lateralgroup.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":3905184},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
