- 3 certified filings for “Senior Security Engineer” (Information Technology Project Managers) in NY: $159k–$176k, median $176k. Most were filed at wage level I (33%) — 1 lottery entry, ≈15% projected selection odds for cap-subject employers. Source: US Department of Labor LCA disclosure data (Oct 2025 – Jun 2026).
US H-1B: cap-subject employers enter a lottery weighted by wage level — Level I gets 1 entry, Level IV gets 4 (DHS projected selection odds ≈15% at Level I to ≈61% at Level IV). Universities and non-profit research employers are cap-exempt. The $100,000 fee for new petitions from abroad is currently blocked by a court order (appeal pending).

About the 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.
We are hiring a Senior Security Engineer for our Enterprise Security team. Threats facing modern organizations are changing fast, driven by AI, cloud complexity, and a growing attack surface. Enterprise Security protects Snowflake, our employees, and our customers by building and running endpoint security at enterprise scale. That covers endpoints and identities, and also the AI-assisted workflows and intelligent systems the modern enterprise now runs on.
AS A SENIOR SECURITY ENGINEER AT SNOWFLAKE, YOU WILL:
- Deploy, maintain, and scale Snowflake's endpoint security solutions, including EDR, DLP, secure browser, MDM, and AI security tools, across a multi-cloud, multi-SaaS environment, and contribute to architecture decisions as we grow.
- Build automation and tooling with software engineering and AI to reduce toil, improve detection fidelity, and speed up response.
- Monitor security events, investigate incidents, and build detection and prevention controls that protect against endpoint compromise and data exfiltration.
- Run risk and threat analyses on the endpoint fleet, then drive remediation of the vulnerabilities you find through to resolution, applying zero-trust principles to reduce the attack surface.
- Help write and roll out security policies, procedures, and standards for endpoint protection, in line with relevant compliance frameworks.
- Work with Security, Engineering, IT, and Product partners to implement secure practices, and give technical guidance to employees and end users.
- Uphold high standards in threat modeling, detection quality, and incident response, and share knowledge with teammates through reviews and documentation.
OUR IDEAL SENIOR SECURITY ENGINEER WILL HAVE:
- 3+ years of hands-on experience in information security, such as security engineering, detection, threat intelligence, or incident response, with a focus on endpoint security.
- Proficiency in at least one programming language such as Python, Go, Java, C, C++, or JavaScript, plus experience using AI-assisted development.
- Hands-on experience deploying and maintaining endpoint security tools (e.g., EDR, DLP, MDM, secure browsers) across Windows, macOS, and Linux.
- Solid understanding of operating systems, network protocols, application platforms, and endpoint security concepts and best practices.
- Experience owning well-scoped technical projects from design through delivery with limited supervision.
- A bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Security, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
BONUS POINTS FOR THE FOLLOWING:
- Experience with AI security solutions or securing AI-assisted workflows.
- Experience with infrastructure from major cloud providers (AWS, GCP, Azure) and enterprise SaaS platforms at scale.
- Relevant certifications such as CISSP, CEH, or Security+.
- Ability to explain security concepts clearly to technical and non-technical audiences.
