About this role
At Snowflake, we are powering the era of the agentic enterprise. To usher in this new era, we seek AI-native thinkers across every function who are energized by the opportunity to reinvent how they work. You don’t just use tools; you possess an innate curiosity, treating AI as a high-trust collaborator that is core to how you solve problems and accelerate your impact. We look for low-ego individuals who thrive in dynamic and fast-moving environments and move with an experimental mindset — who rapidly test emerging capabilities to discover simpler, more powerful ways to deliver results. At Snowflake, your role isn't just to execute a function, but to help redefine the future of how work gets done. Snowflake product marketers develop and execute go-to-market strategies for the most strategic areas of the business. We are looking for a highly technical, driven, and self-motivated Product Marketing Engineer to lead competitive benchmarking for Snowflake’s Analytics portfolio. This role will own the end-to-end benchmarking process, from defining the testing strategy and designing the benchmarking architecture to executing workloads, validating results, and communicating the outcomes. You will partner closely with Product Management and Engineering to evaluate Snowflake products against competitive offerings using rigorous, repeatable, and defensible methodologies. You will translate technical benchmark results into meaningful customer outcomes and compelling market-facing narratives. Your work will appear across Snowflake blogs, partner publications, technical papers, presentations, demos, and videos. You will also closely monitor competitive products, technical claims, and published benchmarks, helping Snowflake respond quickly, credibly, and strategically. The role will support Snowflake’s broader Analytics portfolio, including Interactive Analytics for real-time use cases, Business Intelligence, Semantic Views, Ontologies, context for AI-powered applications, and core data warehouse engine performance.

Contribute to the architecture, development, and ongoing improvement of a scalable and repeatable benchmarking platform. Configure environments, execute benchmark tests, troubleshoot technical issues, analyze results, and validate findings with engineering and product stakeholders. Ensure that benchmark methodologies and conclusions are accurate, reproducible, transparent, and defensible. Evaluate products and capabilities that may still be under development or have not yet been publicly released. Translate complex technical findings into clear customer outcomes, business value, and differentiated product messaging. Create compelling technical content, including Snowflake blogs, partner blogs, benchmark reports, presentations, sales enablement materials, demos, and videos. Present benchmarking methodologies and results to internal teams, customers, partners, analysts, and broader technical audiences. Monitor competitive analytics products, architectural developments, performance claims, product launches, and published benchmarks. Develop timely and thoughtful responses to competitive benchmark claims, working closely with Product, Engineering, Competitive Intelligence, Communications, Legal, and other relevant stakeholders.
