A Data Superhero is a term coined by Snowflake to denote a distinction awarded to experts who demonstrate exceptional expertise and active engagement within the Snowflake community. These experts, often referred to as Data Heroes, do not merely master Snowflake solutions and technologies; they are also deeply involved in sharing their knowledge and assisting other members of the community. Their role is crucial in fostering innovation and the adoption of advanced practices around Snowflake’s Data Cloud, making them true evangelists of the data cloud capabilities.

The technical expertise of these heroes is not only utilized to support users in their adoption of Snowflake but also to influence product developments.

In addition to their roles as guides and mentors within the community, these leaders are tasked with actively promoting Snowflake at professional meetings and conferences, thereby strengthening the network of professionals around this modern and innovative technology.
