Summary

Role Overview

We are seeking an experienced Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE) to act as the primary technical bridge between our data platforms and client success. This is a high-velocity role for an engineer who thrives in ambiguity and can context-switch seamlessly between multiple concurrent client projects. Unlike traditional architecture roles, you will be embedded directly within client delivery teams to own the end-to-end implementation of Databricks-centric Lakehouse platforms. You will be responsible for translating complex requirements into production-ready systems, ensuring rapid delivery without compromising technical rigor.

Key Responsibilities

Rapid Delivery & Multi-Project Agility: Manage technical priorities across multiple client engagements simultaneously, pivoting between distinct architectural needs in a fast-paced, high-demand environment.
CI/CD & Engineering Rigor: Architect and maintain automated CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps, Jenkins) for data engineering workflows, ensuring robust version control, automated testing, and seamless deployment of Databricks assets.
Embedded Solution Delivery: Act as a core member of client delivery teams, translating business challenges into functional, high-impact data solutions. Platform Architecture: Architect, build, and launch an end-to-end Databricks Lakehouse platform using the Medallion Architecture (Bronze/Silver/Gold).
Engineering Ownership: Own the full development lifecycle, from technical design and ETL/ELT pipeline construction (Databricks Workflows, SQL Warehouses, Spark) to deployment, monitoring, and production support.
Data Governance & Security: Implement governed Lakehouse patterns (Unity Catalog, RBAC/ABAC, lineage, compliance) while balancing security with development agility.
System Integration: Design distributed integration patterns across cloud-native services (AWS, Azure, Google Cloud Platform) and enterprise systems (CRM, ERP, Kafka/Kinesis streams).
Operational Excellence: Lead architecture reviews, mentor client engineering teams, and drive cloud cost optimization across storage and compute.

Technical Qualifications

Deep Databricks Expertise: Strong hands-on experience with Unity Catalog, Delta Live Tables (DL T), Photon engine, and Lakehouse Federation. CI/CD & DevOps: Demonstrated experience implementing CI/CD pipelines for data platforms. Proficiency with Infrastructure as Code (Terraform) and version control workflows.
Data Engineering Rigor: Proficiency in Spark (PySpark & Scala), complex query tuning, performance optimization, and pipeline automation (Airflow, dbt).
Full-Stack & Cloud Mindset: Hands-on experience with cloud infrastructure (AWS/Azure/Google Cloud Platform), containerization (Docker), and building/debugging data-connected applications (FastAPI/Flask/Node.js).
Streaming & Real-time: Experience with real-time streaming technologies (Kafka, Kinesis, Pub/Sub, Auto Loader).
