I've been scrolling around on the site recommended here - trailpeak.com, but would love any direct suggestions!

Ha Ling Peak would be snow free by now looks over Canmore. For May I find the elbow falls / Bragg Creek area your best bet. May 15th the road opens up for Moose Mountain and you can get at least to the False summit before hitting too much snow, Prarie Mountain a steep but short hike, Nahani Ridge, Forget me not Ridge? and Rasberry Ridge all make good early season hikes.
May is pretty snowy in Banff still. Maybe some of the stuff around Lake Minnawanka. I think its called Akima lookout, there is also an extension to Akima pass but that is probably still snowed in in May
