  • Accelerate research-to-production delivery: prototype solutions alongside researchers; establish patterns that make productionization easier and faster; reduce friction between research and engineering workflows.
 
Skills
Must have
  • 10+ years of platform and data solutions experience
  • Hands-on Databricks experience (workspace, notebooks, jobs) and building platform capabilities
  • Python
  • SQL
  • Modern CI/CD, IaC (Terraform strongly preferred)
  • Data Governance and observability (Unity Catalog, lineage, monitoring)
  • Orchestration (Airflow)
  • AI fluency: use of AI agents (Claude Code preferred) as a primary tool to design, build, test, and support solutions
