Snow Job is a fictional character from the G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero toyline, comic books and cartoon series. He is the G.I. Joe Team's original arctic trooper and debuted in 1983.

His real name is Harlan W. Moore, and his rank is that of staff sergeant E-6. Snow Job was born in West Rutland, Vermont.

Snow Job was a major Olympic Biathlon contender, who enlisted for the special training and support privileges that the Army gives to Olympic champions. It's been suggested that he got his nickname more from being a con artist, than from his primary military specialty on the arctic ski patrol. His secondary specialty is rifle instructor, and he is a qualified expert with all NATO long range sniper rifles, and the XMLR-3A laser rifle.

Unlike some of the other environment specialists on the G.I. Joe Team, Snow Job doesn't thrive on the cold, but he accepts that the chilly environments are the best place to showcase his incredible skills. He can ski down a steep slope, while picking off a target at 1,000 yards, and is considered one of the best marksmen on the team. While this allows his teammates to trust him with their lives in the thick of combat, no one wants to be on the receiving end of one of Snow Job's scams. Being conned by Snow Job has almost become a hazing ritual for new recruits. His scams are never outrageous, and he sees them as a way to keep his teammates perceptive and aware.

Snow Job was first released as an action figure in 1983.

In the Marvel Comics G.I. Joe series, he first appeared in G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero #11 (May 1983). He helps the Joes secure weapons grade Plutonium that Cobra was trying to steal. He also tries a to run a minor scam against Rock'N'Roll via getting cash to set him up with Gung-Ho's sister, a model (who was really nine). After Doc explains the trick, the officer himself says 'This is why they call me 'Snow-Job'".

Snow-Job spies on the 'Bern Insititue Of Reconstructive Surgery' and confirms Cobra operatives there.

Snow-Job and Ripcord are injured when Cobra Hydrofoils destroy part of the G.I. Joe's mobile sea base.Doc treats them. Due to limited manpower at the moment, the two injured men as assigned as gunners on the 'W.H.A.L.E.' vehicle when the team assaults the newly formed Cobra Island. Legal maneuvering forces the Joe team to call off the attack.
