About the role
About the Role
As an Industry Architect within the Industry and Data/AI Architect teams at Snowflake, you will be a trusted technical partner driving industry-specific transformation. Your goal is to help customers unlock measurable business value by adopting and building on Snowflake's AI Data Cloud. In this specific role, you will serve as the technical visionary for Advertising & Media. You will pivot away from pure platform engineering to focus on the buy-side and measurement ecosystem, working directly with global brands and media agencies. You will bring together deep expertise in media measurement, marketing science, and privacy-safe data collaboration with modern AI and data architecture to guide customers toward a future-proof media strategy. You will report to the Director of Industry Architects and work inextricably with the Marketing & Advertising Go-to-Market (GTM) cross-functional team to co-own account strategy and execution for advertising and marketing effectiveness use cases.

Build trusted relationships with Chief Data Officers, CMOs, Heads of Analytics/Marketing Science, and Enterprise Architects, acting as the bridge between media strategy, marketing science, and technical implementation. Help customers re-architect how they plan, measure, and optimize media investments using Snowflake.
- Innovate and Design Marketing Effectiveness & Measurement Solutions: Translate complex advertising and marketing questions such as signal loss, cross-channel attribution, incrementality, reach and frequency, audience quality, and business lift into data-driven architectures and analytical frameworks.

Architect solutions that leverage Data Clean Rooms, privacy-enhancing technologies, identity resolution, and AI/ML to connect exposure, consumer, and outcome data in a privacy-safe way.

Help shape new solution concepts from idea to prototype to customer validation, working closely with data scientists, engineers, and product teams to bring new measurement and optimization capabilities to market.
