Senior Snowflake Consultant

Senior Snowflake Consultant Melbourne, Victoria, Australia Can you turn a messy business problem into a data strategy that actually moves the needle? Do you want to be in the room where decisions get made, shaping the conversation, framing the trade-offs and connecting technical possibility to real business value? At InterWorks, we’re looking for a Senior Snowflake Consultant who leads with outcomes, earns trust quickly and backs it up with deep technical credibility. This is a senior, client-facing role for someone who has done the hands-on data work and wants the strategic, value-focused side of consulting. You’ll own the most important client relationships, shape solutions before a line of code is written and guide organizations from “we have a data problem” to “here’s the business case, here’s the roadmap, here’s the value we’ll unlock.” Success in this role shows up in business conversations, trusted advisory and the technical outcomes you help clients achieve.

Architect and advise on AI and GenAI solutions, from RAG and LLM-powered applications to ML pipelines, and help clients separate genuine value from hype while planning for governance, security and responsible use.
