At Databricks, we are passionate about enabling data teams to solve the world's toughest problems — from making the next mode of transportation a reality to accelerating the development of medical breakthroughs. We do this by building and running the world's best data and AI infrastructure platform so our customers can use deep data insights to improve their business. Founded by engineers, we leap at every opportunity to tackle technical challenges, from designing next‑gen UI/UX for interfacing with data to scaling our services and infrastructure across millions of virtual machines.
Our engineering teams build highly technical products that fulfill real, important needs in the world. We develop and operate one of the largest scale software platforms, with a fleet of millions of virtual machines that generate terabytes of logs and process exabytes of data per day. At our scale, we regularly observe cloud hardware, network, and operating system faults, and our software must gracefully shield our customers from any of the above.

- Use your deep experience to help prevent and investigate production issues.

- Contribute as a technical team lead by mentoring others, lead sprint planning, delegating work and assignments to team members and participate in project planning.
