Job description
We’re looking for a Senior Databricks Engineer to help accelerate a critical data engineering initiative. This person needs to be a hands-on builder who can move quickly from direction to execution, while also helping shape how the work gets done. This is not a strategy-only role. The team needs someone who can help drive the engineering roadmap, identify gaps, solve problems in motion, and fly through building and execution in Databricks.
What You’ll Do
- Build and deliver data engineering solutions in Databricks with speed and quality.
- Help drive the data engineering roadmap by turning direction into concrete execution plans.

- Contribute to both engineering design and hands-on implementation where answers are not yet fully defined.
- Partner with technical stakeholders supporting migration and broader data initiatives.
- Support proof-of-concept work, including potential AI-related testing once core capability is established.
Requirements
- Deep experience as a Databricks engineer with a strong track record of hands-on delivery.
- Senior-level ability to balance architecture, problem-solving, and execution.
- Someone who thrives in ownership-heavy environments and can move work forward without perfect clarity.
- Strong communication and stakeholder partnership skills.
- Ability to work across strategy, design, and implementation - but with a clear bias toward building., * A senior Databricks professional who has spent a meaningful part of their career in the platform.
- More builder than advisor: someone who can get in, solve real problems, and deliver fast.
- Likely currently employed and succeeding in a similar environment.
